Let’s Check them Out….

4. Surveillance
To monitor the behavior of the people around you, people coming
into your house and going out of your house can be kept an eye at,
you need to adopt some methods like:
• Peepholes: Install the correct type of peepholes on the main doors
of your house. The peephole should be the one which provides you
a clear view of who is actually present outside. Peephole cameras
are a best option.

5. • Home Security Systems: Go for the home security systems –
surveillance cameras outside your home which can easily be
connected to your TVs, smartphones or computers. Thieves will
not take a risk to enter a house having security cameras
installed.

6. • Moving Sensor Lights: Best way to figure out if
someone enters or tries to enter your house at night
is motion detector light. The light will guide you
where that ‘unknown’ person is going.

7. Alarms
Install home security alarm systems that have loud sirens so that
your neighbors will be alerted of any suspicious activity. Once the
alarm starts ringing loudly, thieves will not dare entering the house.
Also,
You can also opt for
indoor alarms.

8. Security on Doors/Windows
Doors and windows are the first option thieves
consider. If you ignored security check there,
you have already handed over the game to
them. Consider having solid doors with proper
locks – deadlocks, dead bolts, dead latches –
whichever is suitable.
Windows should have tough glasses to avoid
break ins.

9. Higher vs Shorter Fences
Fences are meant to
beautify our houses and
most importantly, make
our houses secure. So, to
prevent any easy invasion,
choose higher and stronger
fences that are not easy to
climb.
**If you have an entry point
of your fence, install a gate
with a strong lock.

10. Rekey Your House
When you first move into the new house, always get the locks changed or
the rekeying done by an expert locksmith around you.
Getting a master key can be beneficial too. Consult the locksmiths for
better opinion.

11. Have a Secret Safe
Having a safe in the wall (secret chamber) or in the floor. This will be a
secret chamber to protect all your valuable items from thieves as you
and only you know about it. They will check only closets etc. to get
valuable items, so these will be safe.

12. Some Other Tips
• Don’t advertise your valuables. Before going for
vacation, make sure all the valuables are kept
safe and are not visible from windows etc.
• If you have recently bought any costly items,
don’t leave the packing outside to give an idea to
the thief.
• Make sure all your important documents such
as birth certificates, passports, bank information,
etc. are stored in a secure location. I.E. a safe or
lock box.
• To prevent identity thefts, destroy the unwanted
papers through paper shredder.
