When the economy is tough, like it has been for a while, most people tighten their belts and look for ways to cut expenses. Less trips out to dinner and a movie, more frugal grocery shopping to stretch each meal as far as possible, and a keener focus on what's necessary and essential versus what's frivolous and luxury. Even finding a part-time job is in the cards for a lot of people, just to make ends meet. However, some people don't do any of these things.
House burglars don't care about the economy, and they're certainly not looking to do any belt-tightening. In fact, crime is one of the industries that thrives and prospers during an economic downturn, and it's for this reason homeowners need to be extra diligent about home security.
It's hard enough keeping what you've earned without some unscrupulous house burglar working on a hundred different ways to steal it all. Here are some really great ways to help you avoid coming home to an empty house. Some might seem like commons sense, but you might be surprised to discover how many houses have been burglarized because something very simple was neglected.
Lock your doors and windows. You might be thinking to yourself 'no kidding', but far too many burglars are able to walk right in through the front door, or make their way through an unlocked window. Locking your locks is the most basic of all home security measures, creating a foundation by which you can build a rock solid home security plan.
Along with locking your windows, make certain that your sliding windows – and doors – have an extra level of protection. This is easily accomplished by purchasing large dowels or rods that will fit in the tracks of your sliding windows and doors. This prevents them from being opened from the outside, and is a very effective and inexpensive way to keep burglars from gaining entry into your house.
Have a monitored security alarm system professionally installed in your house. This will work to keep burglars at bay on a variety of levels, the least of which is attributed to the effectiveness of the yard sign and window sticker that comes with your system. Proudly display the fact that your home is protected. This is increasingly becoming a very effective tool as most burglars are looking for easy targets, and homes that are professionally protected are not easy targets.
Home Security monitoring from ADT also provides you with around the clock protection, whether you're at home, or away on an extended vacation. No other form of home security can offer – or boast the fact – that your home and belongings are covered 24/7, 365. Protect your family against burglars starting today!
