Home security is a big market. Burglaries occur in every neighborhood. Burglars will usually choose homes that seem relaxed with their security. To prevent your home from getting broken into, check out the below article to learn some excellent tips on protecting your home.
It is a good idea to replace all the locks on the new home you buy. You never know how many copies of the keys the previous owners made and handed out. Call a locksmith to make sure you’re the only one with access to your home. In addition, replace your locks if your keys ever get lost.
Do you keep your dog outside if you leave the home? If so, the dog can be a terrific spot to keep a spare key. Attach the key to the dog’s collar so that it is hidden from view. This is the perfect place to store a spare key, especially if your dog doesn’t care for strangers.
Let a house cleaner have your keys only if they can provide you with references so you can verify their trustworthiness. If they will be there over an hour and you are thinking of giving them your home key, be certain they are honest, reputable and hard-working. Go over their references and do some background research on the company they work for. If they work for a firm, call the local Better Business Bureau to find out that firm’s reputation.
If you retain a space key for when you get locked out, consider the place you hide it carefully. You don’t want to put them in common spots, such as above the frame of the door or under the doormat. Think outside the box and put the key someplace unusual, like hidden in your dog’s collar.
Ask friends for some advice before choosing home security companies and systems. Other people are sure to have opinions and experiences to share. Ask around so you’ll have as much advice as you need in order to make a sound decision.
Buy roofing, flooring and interior paneling that is flame resistant. This adds more protection to a house, especially if you’re in a dry area with some power lines. Preventing fires is the best way to deal with them.
When you’re picking out home security equipment and services, don’t forget to ask your friends and family for help. It is probable that you will hear some great stories about some companies as well as some not so great stories about others. This can save you the hassle of having to research everything on your own. Spending a few days asking for reviews is useful in helping you choose correctly.
Home protection program details may be available at your police station. Several in various jurisdictions have programs which entail providing a home inspection, what protective measures will help your home and even how to engrave valuable items to make them easier to recover. These programs can make a big difference to the security of your home, and they may just be a phone call away.
Don’t open your door for strangers. Criminals find ways to get people to open doors so they can commit crimes. Never open the door to anyone you do not know.
Garage Doors
Walls are the perfect place to hide. If you own smaller things that need protection, think about keeping them hidden in the walls. All you need is a wall opening you’re not using (something like a phone jack, electrical box, or switch plate). Anything not used currently makes a good spot for hiding.
If your garage is attached to your house, make it secure. There is a way to prevent burglars from entering your home through the garage. A C-clamp is very useful for garage doors that lift on tracks. It will prevent garage doors from opening up whenever it is near the roller and is tight on the track.
When it comes to securing your home, start by changing your locks. If you have boarders, former live-in partners, or others who once had access to your home, this is especially important. It is inexpensive, and most locksmiths will be available for next day appointments.
One effective home security trick you can use is by installing outdoor motion sensor lights. Burglars like the cover of darkness to commit their crimes. Add lights to any areas you believe are potential entry points for burglars. Consider all your doors, porches, patios, decks, garages and all ground-level windows.
Home security is essential to your family and home. No one ever expects crime to strike home. Keep the above advice in mind when coming up with a home security plan. Don’t wait until it’s too late. Act on matters of home security while you still can.
