If you are a home owner, then you know just how important it is to keep your humble abode safe. Few feelings are worse than seeing your house damaged or, worse, destroyed. Your home is your haven as well as a huge investment. Read on to learn how you can secure your precious home.
Your dog can keep your spare house key for you. This will come in handy if your dog is outdoors most of the time or if it can go outside through a pet door. Simply attach a spare key to your dog’s collar (in a secure and non-visible place, of course) so that you’ll be able to retrieve it if you need it.
Comparison shopping is essential when seeking a security system for the home. Each company has different rates for their security system. Get three quotes or more before making a choice.
Don’t give your keys to a house cleaner unless you totally trust them. If they need the keys and plan on being in there for more than an hour, try to ensure that they are honest, hardworking, and reputable. Make sure you check references. If your cleaning person comes from a company, check with the BBB.
If you want to have a spare key close to your house in order to prevent lockouts, make sure you give its hiding place some careful thought. You don’t want to put them in common spots, such as above the frame of the door or under the doormat. An example would be to attach a key to your dog’s collar, if he stays outdoors.
The police department in your area may offer a home protection program. Home inspections or engraving identifiers can help protect you. Call the local police department and inquire as to what programs they offer.
Don’t allow anyone you don’t know to look into your house. Even if this stranger has a believable story or is trying to sell you something, do not let them in. Some will come to your door just to determine how secure it is, and they may return later if they think they can easily enter your home.
If your garage is attached to your house, make it secure. There is a solution for people that are worried about burglars going into their home through an attached garage. Simply attach a C-clamp near the roller on the door track.
Look for an alarm system that does more than protect your doors. Intruders can enter through your windows too. Therefore, ensure the windows have an attached alarm. All potential entry points should have an alarm. This helps ensure your family stays safe.
Get rid of all of the dead wood and vegetation in your yard during the summer months. This sort of thing is a fire hazard in the heat of summer. Keep your family and your house protected by regularly clearing out your yard waste.
It is important that you check your home security system periodically, at least once a year. Call the company and have them send someone to check it out. Mother nature can sneak in and cause many problems. You may not be able to tell there is an issue by yourself.
Check each spring for any rotting frames on your doors and windows. Replace them immediately if you spot any problems. Anyone who wants to get into your home can easily pry away rotted wood and slip right into your home. Wood that is beginning to rot should always be replaced to make sure your home stays safe.
Make sure that none of your valuables can be seen from the outside. 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. Keep your curtains drawn to keep your valuable items safe.
Now that you’ve reviewed some solid home security advice, you hopefully understand that improving your home’s safety isn’t all that hard. You need to have some knowledge about home security. Ensure that you get the most out of these tips by taking advantage of everything you learned in this article to secure your home. Do not neglect even one of these tips, because they all help ensure your home is safe.
Find out how long a company has been in operation before signing a home security contract. Look for a security company that is well-established and has extensive experience in the industry. Knowing that you are dealing with a shady company can keep you calm when making this crucial decision.
Home Security Systems: The Strobe Motion Alarm and Chime with Remote is a totally wireless and easy to install PIR motion sensor with 120dB Alarm with strobe light and door chime is ideal for protection your home, office and store.
