2019 is finally here, and the first month of the year
is the perfect time to make sure your home is safe. Some say it’s easier said
than done, but we beg to disagree! Keeping your home safe and secure can be
easy, just check out the following tips!
Tint Your Windows
That's right - window tinting residential homes are one
simple way to add security and promote privacy. With its ability to slow down
and deter an intruder's ability to check on your home easily, you're doing
yourself a favor by reducing your risk of privacy intrusion. Window tinting
also offers other benefits such as promoting a consistent temperature
throughout your home, reduced glare cause by traditional windows, sun
protection, energy saving, and efficiency, added curb appeal and more.
Get Yourself a Dog
Dogs are an excellent companion, can help
reduce stress, manage depression, keeps you active and social and can help
promote health and wellness. They can also be extremely territorial and
protective, which means they can act as excellent security for your home. They
often bark at people they are not familiar with and can help keep your property
safe from intruders.
Install a Home Security System
Now, if you think that getting a dog is not for you
then consider installing security cameras. You can accurately record what
happens in and out of your house and burglars, and trespassers will think twice
before targeting your home. You can sleep well at night or even go on long
weekends without worrying about leaving your home unattended.
Consider Installing Smart LED and Motion Detector Lights
By installing motion detector lights, burglars will
find it intimidating since the last thing they want is to get caught. With
smart LED lights, on the other hand, you can keep your home well-lit and look
as if someone's always home as you have control over your lighting even when
you're out of town.
Keep Your Lawn Mowed and Consider Smart Landscaping
Beautiful home with an unattended yard is one of the
common targets of burglars. Why? The reason is that it usually denotes its
owners are always busy and out and about. So, make sure to mow your lawn, trim
your bushes and eliminate hiding spots.
Befriend Your Neighbors
Your neighbors can help keep you informed of the latest
happenings in your neighborhood and even keep an eye on your home. Tight
communities know everyone in the neighborhood, which means they'll instantly
know if a stranger is lurking in the area. They can alert you, in case they
spot an unknown man in your property during your absence. You can also have
your mails and packages delivered to a neighbor you trust in case you need to
be away for many days.
Be Mindful of How You Rid of Your Trash
Some burglars will target homes that often dump trails
recent expensive purchases. For example, you bought a brand new home
entertainment system, make sure to fold the box inside out or better yet, cut
it out before dumping it in the trash. If the bad guys find you putting out boxes
of pricey items, they will take it as a clue that they have a good chance of
getting good loot from your home.
