Your home is at risk all the time however during hot days people become more careless and the security risk to your home rises. It is amazing to see how careless people are when it comes to security in the home. The number of people who leave spare keys under the door mat, above the doorframe or even under a plant next to the door. In some instances your insurance may not cover a break-in if you have done this so you may not be insured after all.
It's a hot day and like millions of people you open a few windows but make sure you close them before you go out. Even if you think you will only be five minutes think about how much a thief could steel in that time. The last thing you want to do is return and find someone in you home.
It's amazing what garden furniture and gardening equipment costs if you were to add it all up you will be surprised at what the replacement costs would be. Don't leave it in plain site try and move it behind a wall or bushes. Make sure gardening tools are locked away as these could be used to break-in to your home.
A simple door entry announcement system would provide a simple and very cheap alarm system. These come in two types one is connected to the door and every time the door is opened the connection is broken and the alarm goes off. Slightly more expensive is a chime with a build in motion detector, which I believe is the better option of the two.
This motion sensor can be places in a hallway, at patio doors or even slightly away from the door so that the children can come and go into the kitchen for drinks but if anyone went into another part of the house the alarm would go off.
You can quickly and easily set up a mini motion sensor alarm and as it is battery operated there is no wires or need to find an electrical socket. Normally these alarms come with two settings including a simple chime so that you know someone has passed or a continuous alarm sound to warn you.
Another great way to use these mini sensors is on vacation so you know someone is not in your room whilst you are asleep. The last thing you want is to wake up with an intruder standing over you.
Most crime is committed by opportunist thief who will take any chance you give them to steal from you. If you do not give them the opportunity to make you a victim they will move on to someone who will. Remember it is better to prevent a crime, so call your local police station for crime prevention advice.
