Some everyday and practical security approaches are:
These are merely a few ideas concerning home security and by no means a comprehensive checklist. Make a habit of using the security measures you have available – screen door locks, deadbolts, window locks, alarm, sensor lights, gate locks, and any others.
Keep doors and windows locked when and where appropriate. It sounds too simple, but this simple oversight is all too often the direct cause of opportunistic theft and prevents or at least limits a burglar’s opportunity.
Remain conscious of what can present a security weakness. This can be in any number of forms such as a stranger knocking on the door and posing to be in distress.
If you have a vehicle parked outside (particularly while you are away), the house can be entered if an intruder sees a garage remote on the visor and breaks the glass to get it. A common way of temporarily preventing automatic garage door access is to simply turn the opener off at the switch next to it.
Where you have double timber doors, check that the bolts on the inactive side (that side usually left bolted), are secure enough to resist a typical forced entry. The bolts should be strong, good quality bolts as well as going far enough into the floor and door header to be secure.
If you are going away tell only those who need to know. That automatically excludes social media, phone messages as well as notes stuck to the door.
Likewise, don’t discuss having a safe or valuables with anyone, and don’t leave keys in locks if that can be avoided. Keys and remotes should be equally important to cash or any other valuables.
