Buying a Iredell County home? Search all homes for sale
Today’s video is part two of our videos about home security. I have some useful tips on how to secure your home in the surrounding Iredell County area.
- Place a metal bar along the track of sliding doors. This method prevents an intruder from forcing your door open. A closet rod, for instance, provides a simple solution and easily secures your sliding doors.
- Invest in a safe. This is a great place to look up important documents, cash, and jewelry. Make sure it’s fire proof as well.
- Conceal exterior wiring. Burglars out there are looking for ways to cut your electricity to knock out the lights and disable your alarm system.
- Dogs are a major deterrent. Even if you don’t own a dog, any type of dog-themed decorations (such as a statute or sign) can deter a burglar from robbing your home.
- Don’t disclose personal information on social media. Hold off on sharing vacation photos. Don’t let people know you’re away or when you plan on coming back.
Hopefully, these tips will help you secure your home. If you have any questions about the market, or other security options, please give me a call or send me an email today!
