If you are a single mom or a female living alone that does not feel comfortable defending yourself physically, home security can be a huge concern for you. You don’t have to live in fear. You can do some easy things to make you feel more comfortable. Keep reading to discover some really great home security tips and advice.
You can hide your spare key on your dog. If your dog lives outside or is able to come and go through a dog door, this is a viable idea. Put a key on the dog’s collar so you have access to it when necessary!
Be sure your home appears to always be occupied. Have electronics and lights with timers and set them to go off at various times. This will make your home look like someone is in it. This is just one of the many precautions you can take to secure your home.
Buy a safe to contain everything of great value. A safe is the best way to protect your diamonds, gold and important documents. Hide that safe in a difficult-to-reach place like in a closet inside your basement or an attic.
It is important to invest in building supplies that are as fire resistant as possible. This adds an extra layer of protection to your home, especially if you live in a very dry area with power lines. It’s best to prevent a fire before it starts.
If you will be vacationing for an extended period of time, turn off the ringer on all the phones in your house. A home phone that rings and rings is a good way for a potential thief to know if anyone is home.
Do not allow anyone you do not know into your home. No matter how innocent a person may seem or how interesting the product he or she may be offering, you must not allow access. Even home security representatives could be intruders who want to check the kind of protection you have.
Be sure to secure the skylights to your home. Skylights are a great addition to any home, but they are also tempting entryways for crooks. Your skylights should have strong components that can withstand tampering.
If you’ve got skylights, don’t forget about it when it comes to home security. Skylights are a wonderful addition to any home, but they also tend to be weak spots that intruders take advantage of. You should have them equipped with strong, sturdy hardware.
You can hide certain valuables within your walls. No need to damage your walls. Many areas in your house are already accessible for this purpose. An unused outlet can be taken apart, and the space used to create a tiny hidden safe.
Don’t put extra keys under doormats or in planters. While you may feel that you are keeping yourself safe by allowing a way in for yourself, you are also allowing everyone else to visit whenever they want. Thieves are aware of all these spots. The wisest course of action is to leave a spare key with a trusted friend or a reliable neighbor.
Criminals often pick houses where they can see the valuables inside. You might enjoy large windows so you can see out, but just remember that makes it easier for those burglars to see inside your home as well. Always keep your windows covered and do not tempt others by displaying your possessions.
Regardless of how long you plan on being away from your home, always lock all the doors and windows whenever you leave. Surprisingly, lots of burglaries occur because the burglar was able to simply walk in without having to actually break in. Thieves can steal a lot of valuable stuff in mere minutes.
The alarm system you choose should protect more than just the doors to your home. Your windows should also be protected because burglars can also break into them. Attach the alarm to each window and ask for monitoring for them. This can mean the difference between a safe home and one that is an easy target.
Don’t let anyone in your house without knowing their work history and checking their references. Check if they have any history of criminal activity. You don’t know whether the contractor, maid, or repairman that you’ve hired is trustworthy and handing them your keys could be a costly mistake.
It is possible to protect your home without the need of installing expensive alarms or waiting for home-security companies to install them for you. Criminals can be deterred by doing some cheap alternatives. If you want to feel safer at home, keep in mind the information in this article.
