Repairing Home Security Problems? These Tips Will Help

For the sake of your family, your home should be as safe as you can possibly make it. Upon going out, they must feel secure and safe when returning. Reading the advice in this article will give you a great start in securing your home.

Spare Key

A home security system has other features in addition to sounding an alarm when there is a break-in. They often even alert you to any time a door is opened. For families with young children, this is excellent for alerting when a child has entered or left the house.

TIP! If your door is not made out of solid wood or metal, you should replace it. Metal or solid wood doors cannot be broken.

You can hide your spare key on your dog. This approach is useful if your dog is a large breed that lives outdoor, or if your house has a doggy door. Attach the spare key to your dog’s collar. By doing this, you have a handy spare key whenever you need it.

Change all of your locks when you move in. You simply do not know how many keys to the old locks are floating around. To ensure that you are the only one who has access to your house, call a locksmith. In addition, replace your locks if your keys ever get lost.

Ask the security company you hire whether they have lights with motion sensors. These lights go on when something moves outside. Therefore, if a burglar approaches, you will know.

TIP! Sliding glass doors pose large security issues in homes. A quick heave is usually enough to open these doors, even if they’re locked.

Let a house cleaner have your keys only if they can provide you with references so you can verify their trustworthiness. Be sure any home cleaner you give your key to is trustworthy and reputable. All references should be checked. If the cleaner is from a firm, try calling the local BBB to find out about the firm’s reputation.

Does your dog like to play in your yard? Your dog is an excellent place to hide your spare key. The key can be attached to the collar of your dog. This will ensure that burglars cannot see it. If your dog is suspicious of strangers, you have found a good hiding place for your key.

Choose some deadbolts with captive keylocks for your home. This is a great type of lock, because it cannot be opened from the inside without a key. Always leave your key in the door when you are home so you can leave quickly if you have to.

TIP! Women have a higher chance of home invasion, particularly if they are known to live alone or with kids. Try placing big, muddy boots on your front step to create the illusion of a big, active man living there.

Buy a small home safe that you can use to keep your valuables in. This is vital, as you want to safeguard your valuable items in case of home burglary. The safe should be situated in an inconspicuous area of your home.

Always take time to compare and research before investing in an expensive security system for your home. Prices for home security systems can vary and they do not all offer the same services. Be sure and get a minimum of three quotes from different companies prior to choosing one.

Having a big, scary dog around does has its benefits. Obviously, burglars will be afraid of being attacked by a large dog. Consider getting a large dog that is able to protect, but that also is gentle with children and friendly to your whole family.

TIP! Go straight to a home security company to buy your system rather than going through a middle man. Middlemen tack on extra charges and offer very little in the way of guarantees.

Make sure to use caution when deciding if and where to hide an extra key outside of your home. People will check your doormat and frame first. Think outside the box and put the key someplace unusual, like hidden in your dog’s collar.

Buy fire resistant roofing, flooring and ceiling materials. This give your home an extra protection layer. Preventing a fire is important since it can cause a lot of damage.

Burglars and thieves may target your external wiring. The price for copper is through the roof, which makes it attractive to thieves. Hiding electrical wiring can stop intruders from stealing copper, preventing you from having to pay repair costs.

TIP! Have the locks changed if you’re moving into a new home. This is true of rentals and homes you buy, so ask your landlord to switch the lock or hire a locksmith to do it yourself, if you are able to do so.

During the summer, remove all vegetation and dead wood from your yard. These can quickly become fire hazards when hit by direct sunlight, placing your house at risk. Be sure all sorts of flammable items are kept under control around your home.

You now have expert advice at your disposal. How will you use the information you’ve just read to help secure your home? The tips provided here can help you make the decisions you need to move forward to secure your home as well as your peace of mind.

Avoid letting people outside see inside your home. If people can see a computer or large TV outside your house, thieves can also see it. Be sure to put up good blinds and/or drapes to obstruct the view from outside. Otherwise, put your valuable items out of sight.

TIP! Clean your carbon monoxide and smoke detectors often. Lint and dust could build up in these and could interfere with them.
