It is important that you never completely put your guard down. Don’t ever assume bad things can’t happen to you or your family. Read the below article to learn excellent ideas on keeping your home safe from all threats.
Make your house look occupied all the time. Keep your radio, TV and lights on timers. This will make your home appear as if someone is there. This is a great way to keep your home safe and avoid burglaries.
Put your spare key on your dog. This is only true if yours in an outdoor dog, or your house is equipped with a doggie door. Latch the key on his collar and voila–you have a spare key available!
Spare Key
Consider using your dog as a place to store your spare key. However, this method is only effective if your dog is large, scary, and stays outdoors. Place a spare key on the collar, and when you really need a spare, you know where to go!
A spare key must be carefully hidden and not in the obvious spots that a person might think. Doormats and door frames are predictable places that burglars will always check. Hide your alternative key on your dog’s collar.
Any time you buy a new home, have the locks changed. The person who previously owned the home may have made copies of keys. To make sure you have the only access to the home, hire a locksmith. This is also the thing to do if you lose the keys.
Provide the house key to your professional house cleaner, but only if you fully trust them. If you plan to give them a key so they can clean in your home while you are away, ensure they are reputable and honest. Check out their references thoroughly. If they work through a larger firm, you can check up on the company with your local Better Business Bureau.
It will not benefit you to be shy. Get to know other people who live next door and others in your neighborhood. Ask them to watch your home if you are on vacation. Pay attention to gossip. You might hear helpful information, for instance if strangers have been hanging around.
Spare Key
Do you have a dog that stays in your yard when you’re not at home? Using Fido to hide your spare key can be a clever trick. Attach your spare key inside the collar of your dog. This is quite effective if your pet does not respond well to strangers.
A skylight is another area that needs to be protected for home security. Although skylights provide your home with a lot of light, it is also very helpful for burglars to break in. The hardware that secures your skylights should be sturdy and durable.
Buy ceiling, roofing and flooring which is resistant to fire. Your home will get added protection, especially if your environment is dry and has power lines. Preventing a fire hazard is one of the safest precautions that you can take due to the level of destruction that it can cause.
Shut off the ringer for all of the telephones in your home if you are planning to go on vacation for a long time. If your phone rings and is not being answered, criminals will realize that you’re away.
Checking out security firms online is a great idea. Check out reviews you find on the web. Then you can schedule an appointment for a home visit to discuss which package is best for you and what it will cost.
Before doing anything else, install new locks in your home. Maybe you had a roommate move out or have a disgruntled ex-lover, changing the locks is the best way to keep yourself safe. You can change the locks in a single day, and the hardware is not very costly.
If you live more out in the country, you may think that you’re not at risk. There are some who believe country folk are more at risk because neighbors are not nearby. Some think that there are less burglars in rural areas.
If you plan to go away and have asked someone to get the mail, see if they will also remove fliers that may have been left at the door. Thieves have put them up in order to see if people are home to take them down. If the flier stays in place, the burglar knows that the homeowner is out on vacation.
It is very hard to predict criminal activities, so you never know when your home has become a target. Don’t just cross your fingers and hope. Take a proactive stance on home security. Follow the tips presented here and stay up to date on the latest home security information to protect your home and family against crime.
