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.
Garden furniture and tools cost a lot of money and thieves know this as well. Make sure you keep it out of sight from passers by otherwise you might as well put a big sign on it saying 'I'm expensive come and steal me and don't forget to checkout the valuables inside' Try and give the thieves the impression there is nothing worth stealing and that if they do you have the security systems in place to prevent and catch them.
A really simple door announcement system would provide a cheap and simple alarm system. These alarms come in two different types, one is connected to the door and every time the door is opened the connection is broken and the alarm goes off. The other is a small battery operated motion sensor alarm which I belive is the better of the two.
Rather than be bothered by the kids going in and out for drinks you could put a motion sensor just outside the kitchen so if anyone went any further into your home you would know. The battery motion sensor offers greater flexibility as you can position it at patio doors or in a hallway.
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 thefts are of an opportunistic nature and if you don't give them the opportunity you are less likely to be the next victim. Remember it is always better to prevent someone getting into your home so if possible keep your doors locked at all times. For more information contact your local police station for crime prevention advice.
