home security protection
No burglar wants to be visible as
they walk around a home. Make sure to trim bushes down to reduce hiding places. All bushes should be trimmed so they do not cover windows and doors; preferably less than 3 feet tall. Trees should be trimmed up so burglars may not hide behind them. Trees should also be trimmed away from
light sources. While wearing dark colors, walk out on your property with a friend at night. You should be able to describe the other person from about 100 feet away anywhere on your property. If there is a dark area adding light or painting surfaces with white or light paint will help illuminate the area. If it is time to paint your house consider using a light color. It helps reflect light and makes it hard to hide against the house without standing out. If you plan on heading out of town and will be away from your home for even a few days, be sure to let a trusted neighbor or friend know so they can tend to your home.

monitored burglar alarms
Smart locks use standard pre drilled holes and are fairly easy to install. Some models use your
existing keyed cylinder and deadbolt hardware and attach to the inside of your door, while others require that you remove your existing interior and exterior escutcheons and replace the deadbolt and strike hardware. Smart locks can be opened and closed using a mobile app and will send a notification when someone locks or unlocks a door, and most allow you to create permanent and temporary access schedules for family members and friends based on specific hours of the day and days of the week.
