Be Safe With These Terrific Home Security Tips

Understanding the home security options on the market will help you make better decisions for your own situation. You should take this decision lightly. Figure out what you can afford and what is most important.

When you buy a new house, be sure the locks are changed. The previous owners or tenants might have made several copies of the key. Find a good locksmith who can replace the lock and make a few copies of your key. This is also a good idea in the event that you misplace your keys.

Home security plans have other features along with an alarm that goes off during a break-in. They often even alert you to any time a door is opened. This is useful for parents who have small kids, as it helps keep them from leaving the house.

TIP! Your dog could carry a spare key for you. Of course, your dog has to be an outdoor dog (or you at least need to have a doggy door) for this to work.

If there are folks you don’t know or trust in your social network online, don’t let them know you are going away. It’s natural to be excited about your trip, but this is as good as throwing out the welcome mat for people who know your home is unoccupied.

Be cognizant of what others can see when they look in your windows. Large windows allow you to keep an eye on who is approaching your home, but keep in mind that potential intruders will be tempted if they can see your valuables. You always want to make sure you keep your valuables covered if they are by a window.

When you purchase big, expensive items be sure to break down the boxes and take them to the recycling center yourself. Exposing the box to view ahead of time signals a burglar that he will find this item in your home.

TIP! Don’t announce your vacation agenda on your social networks. This is especially true if you have lots of unfamiliar “friends”.

The number one thing you must do if you’re moving into a new place is have the locks changed. Although the tenant before might have turned their key in, they might still have a duplicate key. You can even buy and install the locks yourself so you know that you are the only one with a key.

One of the best things you can do to protect your home at night is to deter intruders with plenty of exterior lighting. Thieves don’t want to be visible. Thieves have a hard time stealing things when there are lots of lights around. Keep the lights on when it’s dark.

Consider home security and safety when you are planning your landscaping. Make sure that the doors and windows to your home are not covered by trees, fences, shrubs or any other type of thing. If they are visible, people won’t be able to hide there while trying to break in. Plan your greenery and shrubbery for areas away from the direct path to your home to add beauty while still keeping your house safe.

TIP! Don’t let strangers enter your home. Stay true to your safety, even if it appears the person has legitimate reasons for wanting entry.

If you plan to be away and you have another person collecting your mail, have them double check your front door for fliers. Thieves sometimes place fliers on front doors and then wait to see if anyone removes them. If the flier stays in place, the burglar knows that the homeowner is out on vacation.

Keeping thieves from the contents of your garage can be as simple as making sure they can’t easily look inside. Cover your windows with frosting; this could be purchased at hardware stores. They prevent people from peeking inside. Never leave the front door open for very long.

Your furry friend is a great home security system, too. Man’s best friend is very territorial and makes a lot of noise during anything happening out of the ordinary. Your dog doesn’t have to be a big, burly attack dog. Small dogs also help, because intruders don’t want people to notice the barking.

TIP! Get rid of all of the dead wood and vegetation in your yard during the summer months. These could catch on fire during the summer, especially if you live in a dry area.

You want your blinds and curtains closed if you’re away from your home. Intruders can see into your home if they are left up. If they spot an item they’re interested in, they will most likely try to enter. You should keep them closed while you are asleep.

Now that you’ve come to the end of this article, you know a lot more about home security. Don’t make an uninformed decision about home security. It is important that the safety of your home and your family is your priority. Use these tips as you proceed.
