No matter if you own or rent, you need a safe place to call home. You might not know how to improve security, so keep reading to learn more. This article will help you make your house much safer.
Any time you buy a new home, have the locks changed. You cannot be sure of the number of key copies that the former owner gave out. Get a locksmith in right away. This is also the thing to do if you lose the keys.
Do you have an outside dog? They may provide you with a useful place to hide your key. Stash the key on the pup’s collar to keep it out of sight. This is very effective if your pet is afraid of strangers; therefore, burglars are not very likely to notice the key.
Do you keep your dog outside if you leave the home? Your pet might just be the perfect place to stash a spare key to your home. You can attach your key to your dog’s collar in order to keep the key hidden. This works very well if you have a pet that is not very fond of strangers. You will get the access you need without having to worry about your safety.
Shut off the ringer for all of the telephones in your home if you are planning to go on vacation for a long time. A burglar might hear your phone ring and ring and ring, then realize that you are not home to answer it.
Buy fire resistant flooring, roofing and ceiling. This adds more protection to a house, especially if you’re in a dry area with some power lines. Preventing a fire is important since it can cause a lot of damage.
Be bold. Speak with your neighbors and friends in the area. By knowing the people in your neighborhood, you can rest a little easier knowing that people are looking out for each other. Never neglect gossip. It is often a good way to find out about security issues, such as strangers in the neighborhood.
Go with your gut when choosing a home security company to install a system. You should be very picky when it comes to letting people inspect your home. There is nothing wrong with asking for a different technician if you’re uneasy. You need to feel secure with the entire process.
Be sure to keep your car in your garage rather than filling your garage with stored belongings. In this way, your car will be safer. This will help to keep your vehicle safe. Keeping your car in your garage also keeps a thief from knowing whether you are at home or not.
While an alarm system or other security measures can make your home much safer, you must be sure that your security wiring isn’t exposed. Exposed wires make it easy for an intruder to cut them and disable the alarm. Keep the wires hidden in the walls or underground to keep intruders from getting in. It will keep your family safer.
Obtain flashlights with solid batteries, and ensure they are kept in all the rooms of your home in the event of a power outage. Flashlights are important for letting you navigate your home in the dark. Teach everyone in your home to use the flashlights so all family members can see and help each other.
Never place a spare key in a plant box or under your welcome mat. You might think this protects you against being locked out of your home, but it also gives intruders access to your home. Thieves are familiar with these hiding spots. Rather, give your key to a neighbor you find trustworthy.
Motion sensing lights are a good way to increase home security. This is a fairly inexpensive way to provide light and security to your property. This is a great way to deter prowlers and potential intruders at night.
Safety should be kept in mind when you are planning your landscape. All of your windows and doors should be unobstructed by plants, shrubs, trees or fences. This makes it where people can’t hide in different nooks and crevices. Plan your greenery and shrubbery for areas away from the direct path to your home to add beauty while still keeping your house safe.
When you hire a type of home security company, read the contract’s fine print before signing. There are sometimes fees if you break a contract or need additional equipment. You want to try to avoid these fees whenever possible, so make sure you are aware of them.
Now that you know more about home security, get the process moving! Do not hesitate to put these ideas into practice. Allow these tips to get you started on the path to creating a more secure home. The safer you feel, the better you will sleep, so don’t dawdle!
