Find Out What You Need To Know About Home Security

Perhaps you are acquainted with someone whose home as been broken into at one time or another. Home invasion cases are going up, and people need to be more thorough with home security. Break-ins can occur anywhere. In this article you will find information about improving home security.

Don’t ever let it be apparent that there is no one at home. Timers can be used to turn lights and televisions on and off when required. This will give the appearance that someone is at your house at all times. This is an effective deterrent against burglars.

Your dog could carry a spare key for you. Outdoor dogs or pet doors make this possible. You can purchase a special collar that will hold your spare key, so when you forget your keys your dog can let you in.

TIP! Beware giving keys to your maid unless the service has your absolute trust. Only select service people who are totally trustworthy.

Do you keep your dog outdoors when you are away from home? If so, the dog can be a terrific spot to keep a spare key. Find a place to securely fasten the key to your pet’s collar where it’s not visible. This is an especially good idea if your dog doesn’t like strangers, and gives you easy access to get in your home.

Turn the ringers off on all your phones if you will be away for a prolonged period of time. A phone which rings forever is a sign to burglars that you’re not there.

A good security system has many more features than sounding the alarm during a break-in. Most systems could sound an alarm when someone enters the home. This isn’t just for burglars; parents with young children can also use it as a valuable tool to know when their child has come inside.

TIP! Speak with the police in your town regarding the home security programs they have. Many police departments will offer expert advice, arrange inspections, sponsor neighborhood watches, and help you mark and register your valuables.

You should never open your door to someone you do not know. People often think of ways to trick others into letting them in so they can steal from them. Make a house rule forbidding anyone to open the door for an unexpected visitor.

If you’ve got a garage, make sure to use it for your car rather than extra storage space. A car kept locked in a garage is much less likely to be stolen or damaged. This can also keep people from knowing your schedule.

You have a choice on who installs your security system, don’t be afraid to say no if something doesn’t feel right. If the installers make you feel uncomfortable, heed your feelings. You should not hesitate to ask if you can work with a different representative or find a different company if you are not comfortable. You want your new system to protect you, not be the way the thief gets into your home.

TIP! Don’t put your extra key under you doormat, in a planter, or in a cleverly disguised false rock. You might think this protects you against being locked out of your home, but it also gives intruders access to your home.

Regardless of the quality of your home security system, you need to check it annually. Ask a qualified worker who specializes in security systems to take a look. There are quite a few things that can negatively impact the effectiveness of home security equipment. For example, adverse weather conditions or pests such as raccoons can cause problems. If you don’t see the problem, you may remain unaware of it.

If you do not reside in a big city, you may not worry as much about home burglaries. Some people feel that rural residents lead riskier lives because they are far away from neighbors. Some people think burglaries are less prevalent in rural parts.

Even if you’re not going to be gone long, keep your home locked. You may be surprised to know that many burglars simply turn the doorknob and walk right in. A thief can steal lots of stuff in a little amount of time.

TIP! When in the process of selecting an alarm system, you should select a system that protects more than simply the doors of your home. All of your windows are possible entry points for a thief too.

Be certain your wires are hidden, if you have installed a security system in your home. An intruder can cut the wires or disconnect them and avoid the system. Instead, make sure the wires are hidden. This will make you much safer.

If your home isn’t new, replace the locks. The previous tenant or owner may not have the keys, but you don’t know if they made copies for themselves or others. It’s easy to install locks, so you can just purchase them at the home improvement store and swap them out to be sure you have the only keys.

It is important that your alarm system wiring is not exposed anywhere. Intruders can get around security systems and into a home by cutting the wires. Instead, make sure the wires are hidden. This will make you much safer.

TIP! If you are moving into a new home, change the locks right away. Though the prior occupant may have relinquished their keys, there may be copies out there.

Home security installation technicians should always be in uniform and wearing identification. It is simple for a thief to pose as a representative of your home security company as a means of gaining access to your house. Don’t allow this to happen, as it is a direct threat to your house and its contents. Use caution to stay out of danger.

Burglaries happen in middle and lower class neighborhoods, too. If a home looks easy to break into, a thief will break into it. By using these tips, you can keep your home protected from thieves.

When allowing a representative from any security company to enter your home, look for someone in uniform and ask to see an identification. Many thieves use this tactic to enter a house. This can lead to harm befalling your family and possessions. Make sure you are as cautious as you can be.

TIP! Motion-sensitive exterior lighting is a must. These lights provide extra light for your home and are very cost efficient.
