Secure storage:
Invest in a good quality safe that is both fire and burglar resistant, and store your most valuable items like jewellery, cash, and important documents inside it.
Hidden location:
Place your safe in a discreet location within your home that is not easily accessible to intruders.
Door security:
Use strong deadbolt locks on all exterior doors and regularly check that they are working properly.
Home security system:
Install a home security system with motion sensors, door/window sensors, and alarms to deter intruders and alert you to potential breaches.
Lighting:
Ensure your home and the outside is well-lit, especially at night, to discourage potential intruders.
Neighbourhood watch:
Get to know your neighbours and establish a neighbourhood watch program to keep an eye out for suspicious activity.
