"Home is where we feel safest, but it's also where our most valuable possessions and loved ones reside," said Charles Law, spokesperson for Law Security and Investigations. "Being prepared means peace of mind. With rising burglary and robbery rates, homeowners must be proactive in securing their homes. This checklist offers practical advice that anyone can implement to significantly enhance their home security.”

Home burglaries can be traumatic experiences, leaving lasting emotional and financial scars. By releasing this comprehensive checklist, the company aims to empower homeowners to take charge of their security.

Law Security and Investigations' Residential Security Checklist

Law Security and Investigations has developed a comprehensive checklist that empowers homeowners to enhance their private home security. By following these practical tips, residents can significantly improve their home security:

Alarm System: Recent studies found burglars are drawn to homes that do not have home security systems. According to Alarms.org a home that doesn’t have a security system is 300 percent more likely to be burglarized. Other research by Security.org found less than 30 percent of homes have an effective security system installed. Consider installing a home security alarm system. There are versions that run on apps and use an internet connection and they are relatively inexpensive.

Upgrade Front Door Security: The front door is a common point of entry for burglars. 39 percent of robbers get in through an unlocked door. Never give a burglar the easy way in. Consider replacing the deadbolt strike plate with a more robust model. Reinforce the door's hinges to prevent forced entry.

Install Quality Locks: Invest in high-quality locks for all exterior doors. A deadbolt lock with a one-inch throw bolt provides added security.

Window Locks: Ensure all windows are equipped with secure locks, making it difficult for intruders to gain access.

Outdoor Lighting: 72 percent of burglars prefer a house over an apartment as their target. Well-lit exteriors deter burglars. Install motion-activated lights around the property, particularly in dimly lit areas.

Security Cameras: Invest in affordable home security cameras to monitor the home. Even dummy cameras can act as deterrents. Use signs saying “CCTV in operation” or window decals and yard signs from a security company as a deterrent.

Secure Sliding Doors and Windows: 42 percent of burglars surveyed said they broke in through an unlocked window. Lock All Entry Points. Make it a habit to check and lock all entry points before leaving home or going to bed. Sliding doors and windows are vulnerable points of entry. Use window locks, dowels, or security bars to prevent them from being easily forced open. Reinforce sliding glass doors with security film to make them more resistant to shattering.

Trim Landscaping: Trim bushes and trees near windows to eliminate hiding spots for potential intruders.

Secure Air Conditioning Units: If there are any window air conditioning units, secure them to prevent them from being removed for entry.

Mail and Package Security: Don't let mail and packages pile up when away. Ask a neighbour to collect them or use package lockers.

Social Media Caution: Avoid sharing vacation plans or posting pictures on social media while away from home, as it can signal an empty house.

Lock Gates and Fences: Ensure that gates and fences surrounding the hime or property are locked and in good condition.

Home Inventory: Create a home inventory of valuable possessions for insurance purposes.

Emergency Contacts: Keep a list of emergency contacts, including local law enforcement and neighbors, readily accessible.

Secure the Garage: Garages often contain valuable items and provide access to the rest of the house. Ensure garage doors are locked and consider adding a deadbolt to the door connecting the garage to the home.

Get to Know any Neighbors: Building a strong sense of community with neighbours can be one of the most effective security measures. Neighbours looking out for each other can quickly spot and report suspicious activity.

Law Security and Investigations understands that homeowners may have different home security needs, and these tips provide a solid foundation for creating a more secure home environment.

By following Law Security and Investigations home security checklist, Americans can significantly reduce their vulnerability to burglaries and break-ins. Taking these proactive measures not only enhances safety but also contributes to the overall security of communities throughout the country.

The company also offers customized residential security solutions tailored to individual requirements.
