Is home security important to you? Have you come to believe that you simply cannot afford the services of a security company? Would you like to find a more affordable way to live a secure life? You can secure your home in an affordable manner. The article below has the tips you need.
After you buy your new house, get new locks. You cannot be sure of the number of key copies that the former owner gave out. You want to be sure that you’re the only one with a key. Also, if you lose your keys, change the locks.
You should always make sure your home looks like its occupied. Put timers on the TV, lights and radios. This gives off the appearance that someone is home. This is a simple way to improve your home’s safety and make it less attractive to criminals.
Let a house cleaner have your keys only if they can provide you with references so you can verify their trustworthiness. Anyone you give the keys to your home to should be unarguably honest. Carefully check their references. If the person is an employee of a firm, call your local BBB to check their reputation.
Spare Key
Buy a safe to keep all of your valuables in one place at home. If a burglar enters your home, he or she will have a hard time making off with your possessions. The safe should be situated in an inconspicuous area of your home.
Do you have an outside dog? Your dog is an excellent place to hide your spare key. Secure the key on the inside of the dog’s collar. If your pet does not get along with strangers, this will ensure your spare key stays safe.
Do not let people you don’t know in your house. Even if their story is compelling, they need assistance or want to sell you something. This is the first rule of keeping your home secure.
It’s a good idea to have motion sensor lights installed. When a person walks by your home too closely, these lights will go on. You will receive advance warning of any potential issues, and a would-be intruder will probably be scared off. Just remember that you must change the bulbs often in order to keep the lights working in order.
Don’t open your door if a stranger is on the other side. People often think of ways to trick others into letting them in so they can steal from them. Make sure everyone in your house knows not to open the door unless they know the person standing outside.
See what the local police offer when it comes to home protection programs. Many police departments offer programs that can include home inspections, home security training and more. Call them up to find out more.
The walls are a perfect hiding place. You can hide small valuables in your walls. Just access unused switch plates, outlets or phone jacks. If you haven’t got any plates that are unused, simply install a false switch plate.
When dealing with companies that install home security systems, it’s important to trust your gut. If the installers make you feel uncomfortable, heed your feelings. If you don’t feel comfortable, go with someone else. You need to feel secure with the entire process.
Don’t forget skylights when doing a security sweep for your home. While they are an excellent source of natural light, they are also an easy way for thieves to enter your home. Any skylights in your home should be secured with strong hardware.
Don’t leave the packaging from any electronics or expensive purchases sitting on the curb until trash day. Having these boxes around for a while will give people an idea of what is inside your house.
You want an alarm system that protects more than your doors. The best systems are those that cover windows as well. You want to be sure that the alarm is connected to all windows and entry points. This is vital to keeping your family safe.
Moving into an apartment or home that you’ve lived in should involve changing the locks first to maker them safer. You do not want anyone to have a copy of the key. You might even purchase and install your own locks so that you are assured of having the only keys.
Before you give a security company employee access to your home, make sure they’re in uniform and that they present acceptable identification. Intruders can easy pass themselves off as an employee of a security company just to get inside your house. This can put your family and possessions in danger. Be careful to avoid this sort of danger.
Your home can be as secure as you can afford to make it. Even if high-tech, cutting edge security systems are out of your price range, there’s still plenty you can do to make your home secure. This article has many tips you can use for your home security.s These tips can really help you out if you don’t have a lot to spend.
