These tips will make your home more secure:
Bushes: Trim shrubbery around your house so that landscaping will not
provide concealment for criminals. Plant spiny (thorny) plants along fences and
under windows.
Exterior Lighting: Security lighting that is located out of reach and is vandal
resistant should protect all sides of your home.
The best choice is a motion detector type of fixture, which warns the resident that something is in the yard.
Doors: All exterior doors should be solid core wood and equipped with deadbolt
locks. Install a peephole or awide-angle viewer in the door for identifying visitors.
Windows: Double-hungwindows can be secured simply by “pinning”
the upper and lower frames together with a nail.
Keys: Re-key all locks when you move into a new home or apartment. Never
hide a key outside your home; burglars know all the usual hiding places.
Remember, most home burglaries are crimes of opportunity. The more
you can do to keep your home from looking like an easy target, the more
security you have.
