Making Your Home Security Plan Work For You

Home security solutions often conjure up visions of technicians roaming through your house installing a myriad of wires, cables and sensors. That said, it can also be quick and easy. This article has tips that will help you secure your home.

Make your house look occupied all the time. You could purchase timers and have your TVs, lights, radios and other types of electronics to go on at various times. It’ll make it seem like someone is home. This is an excellent method for avoiding burglary and keeping your home secure.

Look at the prices for all of the security systems that you are interested in. Every company offers different pricing. Obtain quotes from a minimum of three home security companies before making a final decision.

TIP! Do not tell anyone that you are going on vacation out of your friend circle. While it is exciting to go to a new place and have a good time, you are letting thieves know that your house will be empty and they can come right in.

Don’t allow a complete stranger to come in your home. There are people who are going to be convincing, but they can just be professional thieves. Create a rule where you only allow those you’ve invited to your home inside.

Your garage needs to be 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. A C clamp helps for garage doors on a track. The clamp actually keeps the door closed if tightened close to the track roller.

Make sure the ringer on any phones in your home is turned off when you leave for vacation. If your phone rings and is not being answered, criminals will realize that you’re away.

TIP! Don’t let any person you don’t completely know into your house. This includes a salesperson or people looking for help.

Police Department

Talk to your local police department about what they offer. Many police departments offer programs that can include home inspections, home security training and more. Your police department will be able to help you find out what is available in your town.

Make sure to clear your yard of brush and dead wood in the summertime. These can be fire hazards and can cause damage to your home. Keep your yard clear of debris to keep your house safe.

TIP! Try not to have a shy attitude. Speak with your neighbors and friends in the area.

Make sure to have your home inspection system maintained on at least an annual basis. Call the company and have them send someone to check it out. There are quite a few things that can negatively impact the effectiveness of home security equipment. For example, adverse weather conditions or pests such as raccoons can cause problems. You might be unaware of problems that arise in some cases.

Use motion sensor lights. These lights turn on if someone walks closely to your house. Motion-sensitive lights will alert you to movement and deter people who want to break into your home. Remember that the bulbs need to be changed so that the lights keep working.

Don’t think you’re not at risk just because you don’t live in a big city. On a different note, some people believe homeowners in more rural areas are more likely to experience robberies because of the lack of nearby neighbors. Some think rural areas see less burglary.

TIP! Do not let people on the street see valuable items in your home. 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.

It is important that your valuables are not visible from anywhere outside your house. While having huge windows may be good for letting in light and viewing what is outside, it also gives potential thieves a good look in your own home. If you have windows that face the street, always keep them covered and keep your valuables safe.

When deciding on an alarm system, be sure and get one that protects more than your doors. Windows offer easy access to a potential thief. Each point of entry for your home should be monitored by the system. This helps ensure your family stays safe.

Always lock your home, even if you plan on coming back within a few minutes. In a lot of cases, home intruders enter through unlocked doors. It doesn’t take long for a thief to steal thousands of dollars worth of stuff.

TIP! Have home-security companies come to your home so they can design the best possible system for it. The needs and wants of each family and the configuration of each home are quite individual.

When moving into a house, ensure that each lock has been replaced. You don’t really know the people you purchased the house from or all the folks they shared keys with, so don’t place too much trust in the old locks. Besides, other tenants or owners might have copies of the key if the previous owners did not change the locks.

Are you aware of the value present in the wiring in your home? A lot of people do not know this until a thief steals them from the house. Copper is expensive and most wiring is composed of it, so stripping it is a great way for crooks to make a quick buck. To keep the wiring safe, be sure that the wire is hidden from view.

Keep your outdoor areas well lit. Thieves like to commit crimes when no one can see. So it’s smart to put a light in typically darker corners around your home. This means by the garage, in the doorways, around windows and much more.

TIP! Think about getting a home security system that is wireless. Systems that are wired are cheaper, but they need unattractive wiring inside your home and may malfunction when you have a power outage.

Big home security systems are not your only option to keep your home secure and your family safe. You have many options when it comes to protecting your home and family. Keep this advice in mind when attempting to make your house a more secure place.
