Your home is always at risk of attracting burglars and unwanted intruders. Installing security systems, deadbolts and window locks are all strong deterrents, however there are simple actions you can take to ensure your home stays safe and secure.
Reduce temptation by removing valuables from anywhere they can be seen from the outside. Be cautious when allowing people into your home as it may give them the opportunity to scan your possessions and level of security. If you are talking to friends about your possessions be careful who is listening.
Install a good alarm system and display it’s presence with a sign or sticker. Thieves are less likely to try and enter a house with an alarm in place. Invest in bright outside lighting and sensor lights. A motion detector is a great way to detect a quiet, would-be burglar. Ensure deadbolts or deadlocks are on all doors and locks or bars on windows. Use padlocks on your gates and sheds.
An overgrown garden is a great place for thieves to hide if you go away. Ask a trusted neighbour or friend to empty your letterbox, bring in your bins and keep an eye on your place. Install a timer to automatically switch on your inside lights and a radio. Consider asking a friend to house-sit or make use of a reputable house-sitting service.
