Keeping our homes secure is an important issue. Today, we’ll offer some tips on how you can easily secure your home in Iredell County.
- Invest in an alarm system. The sound of an alarm not only deters the burglar, it also alerts your neighbors and local law enforcement of a disturbance.
- Put up an obvious surveillance camera. This might cost you around $100, but it’s a clear sign you have a secure alarm system.
- Clear shrubbery and trees. Don’t let bushes and plants obstruct your views on footage. Safety experts recommend keeping bushes trimmed to 3 feet in height and tree branches above 6 feet off the ground.
- Use motion detector lights. This ensures your property will be lit without racking up the price of your electric bill.
- Deadbolt your front and back doors. Statistics reveal 34% of intruders enter through the front door and 22% enter through the backdoor.
