We work around techniques, methodologies and technology to provide you with the best and advanced security system. But it is also very important that you should play your part in securing you own property. Let’s see how:
Locking the Doors Every Time You Leave the House
Don’t be temperamental to leave any door open because all it takes is a few minutes for someone to take advantage of the situation and get control of your house. If you are not going to be around for a longer period of time then, make proper arrangements and be sure that your security system is active and in working condition.
How sturdy is your door and fore frame?
Locks are for safety but the fanciest locks in the world won’t be able to save your property if someone can kick right through it. The door should be of solid wood or metal a must for secure exterior entrances.
Are deadbolts available on all outside doors?
This is an easy security measure to take and is worth installing, if you don’t have to spend lot of time putting them in place.
Or Check all your windows.
Windows give an easy way to get in as most of the times they are not so we secured. Ideally, people use more than one locking equipment on the windows to keep them secure and if you do not, then make sure that they are properly locked.
Where do you put your spare keys?
Keep your house keys with a friend, neighbor or family member. Keeping the keys under Doormats, flowerpots and top of the door are not the ideal place to keep the keys. It’s an open invitation for anybody to break in the house.
Automatic garage door openers offer a convenient way for your car to get in the garage, at the same time they put in your home security at risk because they can be tricked easily. If a burglar gets into the garage, they may find weaker entry. Get a separate lock that doesn’t depend on your garage door opener.
These are the basis towards securing the property, which we all follow under normal circumstances and on routine basis. But due to the impromptu nature of the scenario prevailing today, these manual methods cannot be considered as the safest. So here come technology in action, the new technologically advance security systems is the answer. Before jumping to a new security system you should actually evaluate the need of it by conducting an evaluation.
Look for any security challenges such as:
• Any area which is left covered
• Areas of weakness such as doors, windows, and garage doors and entries
• Overgrown landscaping
• Lack of lighting
• A need for fire and carbon monoxide detectors
Find ways to address those concerns by adding home security features like door and window sensors and improved lighting.
Security Needs Change
Security needs changes from time to time. And how we address those needs must change as well. Ask yourself questions such as how often and how long will the house be empty on a regular basis and in what ways could you improve security while you are away. For example, consider ways to home security and home automation that could help protect your property by making it appear occupied at all times. There are many such systems that can secure the property fully in terms of surveillance and safety.
