Moving Into a New House? Pay Attention To These Home Security Features
There's nothing quite like moving into a new place. Though it can be a very stressful time, it's also very exciting to start unpacking in the home of your dreams. Working out all of the details that come with making this huge financial decision is stressful for anyone, but there are some details you simply can't overlook when moving into a new place, whether it's been lived in before or is entirely new construction.
On top of packing all of your belongings and signing the paperwork to get the keys, every new homeowner must concern themselves with the security of their new abode. After taking hours upon hours to settle on the perfect home, protect your investment with the same careful thought.
Making smart home security decisions actually begins before you've even moved in. Have you purchased new electronics for your home � flat-screen TVs or a new stereo, perhaps? Maybe you saved the boxes when you bought them, and are now using them as moving boxes? When you're done with the boxes, be careful of how you get rid of them! Burglars often become interested when they see a moving van, and will be looking for these telltale signs of the owners' possessions. Do not leave the evidence out on the curb, or savvy burglars will take notice that your home has something worth stealing.
If you're moving into a home that was previously occupied, make sure you get important home security details from the previous owners. How do you operate the home alarm system? Be sure to immediately change garage door codes, the password to the home security system, and the door locks. Doing so ensures that your family is the only one with access to your home.
Moving into a new home is also a great time to reconsider your storage of valuables, from heirloom jewelry to passports. Consider a diversion safe, which is disguised to look like an everyday object. Such safes will be overlooked by burglars searching for items of valuable, and are a great way to keep your valuables within easy access without also making them vulnerable to theft.
In homes both new and old, take time to assess the home security system as you move in. Consider upgrading or updating it with wireless cameras, door and window alarms, glass break detectors, and other home security systems. Consider your personal situation to design the perfect system to protect your family. For example, if you have an elderly relative living with you, make sure there is plenty of lighting indoors at night, and consider slip-proof rugs, handle bars in the showers, and other improvements to make the home safer. Those with young kids may want to install special security features, such as motion detectors, in their children's rooms.
Once your boxes are unpacked, make an effort to meet your new neighbors. Become part of the neighborhood watch group if one is already active, or start one yourself. Neighbors who know each other are more likely to report any suspicious behaviors they see, improving everyone's home security. Be friendly, and get to know those living on your block!
