Every type of house poses its own home security challenges. Protecting an urban high-rise, for example, is much different than securing a rural farmstead. Manufactured homes are some of the most difficult to protect, though it is certainly not impossible. These homes are at risk of a variety of dangers, from crime to natural disasters.
First, it is important to recognize the safety challenges posed by living in a manufactured home. One of the most obvious concerns is that many are built in similar designs, so a criminal could become very familiar with the interior layout of your home. There are also certain features of mobile and prefabricated homes that makes them more vulnerable to a home invasion. Depending on the manufacturer, they may not be built as sturdily as other houses. The front door, for example, may be easier to kick in on a manufactured home than one built on site. Consider replacing your front door with a sturdier one if the one you have is weak enough to be kicked in during a burglary attempt.
If you live in a manufactured home, take the necessary steps to mitigate both of these risks. By installing door and window alarms and security cameras, you can make it less likely that a criminal will attempt to break inside, though without such devices your home might be an attractive target. There are many low-cost home security devices available to you for the protection of your home, whether it is a manufactured home or any other style.
A burglary isn't the only thing you must watch out for as the occupant of a manufactured homes. These homes also tend to be at higher risk of a fire. The materials are typically both extremely flammable and extremely toxic when burned. If you live in such a home, it is extremely important to follow fire safety guidelines. Avoid overloading electrical outlets or leaving space heaters unattended, and don't forget to install smoke alarms and fire extinguishers.
Many manufactured homes use gas for heating or cooking. Not only can this start a fire, but it also poses the danger of inhalation. If you suspect a gas leak, evacuate your home, turn off the gas, and call the gas company immediately.
Weather is another risk for manufactured homes. During a flood, the home may sustain more damage because of its less secure foundation. During the winter, the pipes have a tendency to freeze, since your manufactured home may not have as much insulation. Both of these incidents can be compounded if you don't have homeowner's insurance on your mobile or prefabricated home. Insist on having your manufactured home built to the highest standards so that it can withstand the extreme weather conditions that are possible in your area of the country.
To stay safe from these risks, take the necessary steps to protect your investment. Build home security into your home at every chance you get, from installing door and window alarms to having the wiring and construction inspected before moving into your new manufactured home.
