Safety During The Holidays

Protect Your Windows

Burglars often gain entry into houses through windows. Protect these exposed areas with window locks or burglar-resistant glass. Installing many tiny panes of glass rather than one big pain of glass is a great option too.

Change the Locks

Don't forget to change all the locks when you move to a new house. Yoll never know who had access to the keys before you moved in. If you lose the keys to your residence, you should also replace all the locks to the maximum home security.

Use Metal Bars on Sliding Doors

Any sliding glass doors, patio doors, or sliding windows need to have a metal bar that is set across the bottom track of the window or door. The metal bar can prevent a burglar from pushing the door or window open.

Utilize Interior Door Hinges

If your door has hinges on the exterior of your dwelling, an intruder can easily remove the hinge pin to get entry. For optimal home security, remove the door and reset the hinges so they're on the interior of the house.
