Do you think that just locking the front door when you leave the house is enough to keep an intruder out? If so, you're not alone � but this is not enough! Unfortunately, criminals are becoming more and more skilled at breaking into even the most protected homes. The internet has even become a way for criminals to learn more about how to break through common home security barriers. Still, they tend to seek out the easiest targets, and this means homes whose occupants have done nothing more than shutting the windows and locking the front door.
Take a minute to look over some of these weak points typical of most homes. Do any of them apply to your home? In order to effectively protect yourself from the threat of home invasion, take steps to correct these problems now!
1. Garages and outbuildings. Whether a great distance from the main home, or sharing a wall, these areas of the property are often forgotten about when it comes to home security. An attached garage is a particularly big security risk, since the doors and windows leading into the garage tend to be less well protected than other entrances. It's also likely that you keep valuable possessions, such as vehicles and tools, stored here. A resourceful thief could even break into a garage to get a ladder of crowbar, then using these devices to break into the home itself. To prevent this from occurring, treat your garage and out buildings like an extension of the home, protecting it with the same home security devices.
2. The yard. Speaking of the areas around your home, did you know that the appearance of your yard can either entice or dissuade a potential burglar? Most homeowners overlook these factors, believing that home security starts at their front door. A yard with overgrown hedges and trees gives plenty of room for a burglar to hide as they pick a lock or break a window to get inside.
3. Spare keys. You might think it's good common sense to leave a key under the doormat or in a flower pot. After all, you don't want to lock yourself out of the home, right? In fact this is one of the most common ways for a burglar to enter into the home. Thieves know all of the most common places to check for a spare key. If you feel that you must keep a key outside, conceal it as well as you can, and avoid using any of the most common hiding spots.
4. Relying on flimsy locks. If a window or door is locked, that means a burglar can't get in without a key, right? Actually, burglars have been known to pick locks or smash windows, even in broad daylight, in order to get inside. Fix this security weakness with wireless door and window alarms, and install sturdy deadbolt locks on all entrances to the home.
You don't want to wait until your home has been broken into to find out that you're making common home security missteps. If your home is an easy target, take steps to correct this today!
