While there are lots of tips we could give to
improve your home security, there is only one sure way to do this: meet a
security consultant. That’s your best bet. If you really feel the need to
improve your home security, then you might as well get it done right.
Contacting a professional security consultant and
explaining your fears and concerns would provide you with the best security
solutions possible, as this would provide you with the most personalized security
solutions possible.
If you are however looking for a quick fix to
your security concerns, however, then the following tips would be of help.
1.
Do keep keys in cliche “hiding spots”
This is one advice you
are almost definitely going to get from security consultants. Do not hide keys
under doormats, behind windows, in/under flower vases, on window/door frames,
or any of such places.
If someone needs to get
into your house while you are away, it is better they come to collect the key
from you or someone else you trust directly. Most of these hiding spots are
exactly where burglars would look first, and this makes it exactly where you do
not want to keep your keys.
2.
Keep your security lights on at night
Darkness is the friend
of every criminal, and it presents them with more of an advantage than it does
you. You take away this advantage by keeping the lights around your building on
at night. This little fact alone deters most burglars as in drastically
increase the chances to them getting caught even before they get into the
building.
3.
Lock doors and windows
Always make sure to lock
doors and windows that lead out of your building. It doesn’t matter what floor
you are on. If it is something someone can come in through, then you want it
locked.
4.
Employ security systems
Very little keeps the
mind at peace as the knowledge that one has an effective security system
installed in one’s building. Contact any security consultant around you in
order to find out more about what sort of security system would be best suited
for your building.
5.
Keep a guard dog
Here’s one classic yet
effective security measure. Keeping a guard dog around goes a long way in
making burglars reconsider paying your house a visit. And don’t just keep them
for show too. Release the dogs to roam around at night. If there is one thing
burglars hate more than sirens, it’s the sound of a ferocious dog coming for
them.
