Tips
Home - Consider the Basics
Reducing the risk of a break-in
is merely making your home less inviting to burglars than the other homes
in your neighborhood. Home security systems aren't the only way to guarantee
home security; some basic steps can be taken to safeguard your home. If
a burglar is delayed just a few minutes, he is apt to give up and try
another less problematical home. Basic, ordinary home security equipment,
such as padlocks and deadbolts, can discourage an intruder and stop him
from entering your home. Forty percent of home invasions occur because
a door or window was left unlocked. All exterior doors need to be made
of either metal or solid hardwood and be a minimum of 1 3/4 inches thick.
Remember, even the best and most efficient lock, if it is placed in a
weak door, will not stop a determined burglar. Key locks are the best
type of home security for your windows, and they are available for and
easily installed on all types of windows. These almost-effortless precautions
can greatly increase your home security.
