Home security is a very important topic to all, but it is something that people do not truly understand.
It is important to research home security in order to keep your home protected. The tips you’ll find below can help you go a long way towards living a safer life.
Women are often the target of a home break-in, especially if it is apparent they live alone or with children. Set out oversized muddy boots on the front step to make it look like a large and active man lives there. This will give criminals second thoughts and make your home a less tempting target.
Keep your most precious belongings inside a safe. This ensures during a break in that the most important things are not stolen. Hide your safe in a hard to find place like the basement or attic.
See if the security company has motion sensitive lighting. Lots of companies have this, which triggers your exterior lights whenever something or someone moves near a doorway. This provides additional protection for you when you come home after dark, and can also prevent a burglary.
These are vulnerable to fires and put your home in danger.
Don’t have any visible rooms in your home. Thieves are always on the lookout for highly visible expensive equipment. Install blinds or drapes so people cannot see inside your home. Allowing people to see what you have inside your home is an open invitation for trouble.
Buy fire resistant flooring, roofing and ceiling. This is a good way to protect your home against fires, for instance if you live near power lines or in a dry area. Preventing a fire hazard is one of the safest precautions that you can take due to the level of destruction that it can cause.
Did you know that even your garbage can affect your home security? Thieves will notice empty boxes for expensive electronics or bills for valuable items if you throw them away. This is true of large appliance boxes, too.
It will not benefit you to be shy. Speak with your neighbors. Keep your eye on their houses, and ask for help to keep yours safe too. Listen for gossip too. While this is unorthodox, it may clue you into a possible home security threat.
A timer is very convenient and will give the impression that your home is occupied if you have to go away over extended periods of time.
Don’t put spare keys inside plant boxes or beneath the welcome mat. You may believe you are making life easier for yourself, but you may just be giving thieves simple access to your house. Potential burglars know the usual hiding places. Ask a reliable neighbor or a friend to keep your spare key.
If your shed has a ladder inside, then make sure you lock the door. This can help a burglar get into your house. Keep anything similar locked up, like trash containers, building supplies and exterior sheds.
You need to be sure the attached garage of yours is secure. It is possible for an intruder to get in the garage and then gain access to the house; however, you can do something about it. Using a C-clamp on the garage door will prevent it from opening by staying on the door’s track.
Don’t put the registration to your car in your glove box. Anyone with access to your car can find out where you live, so it is not a smart thing to do. Keep them on you, or another place to hide them. Remember, you do need to be able to access them quickly if you get pulled over by a policeman.
This applies to purchases and rentals, so ask the landlord to change the locks, or do it on your own.
Have lights that are motion-sensor installed. These lights will turn on if anyone walks too closely to your home. These lights will make you aware of, and can also scare off, potential burglars. Get in the habit of checking and replacing the bulbs as necessary to ensure the lights remain effective.
Most people are aware of the important role that home security has in our daily lives. Unfortunately, most aren’t aware of how to optimally protect their home. Hopefully, the article you’ve just read has given you some ideas with regards to home security.
