Burglary Prevention TipsThe experts at Deiter Bros.' 4 Seasons Security Division have a few tips to prevent crimes against your home and loved ones: 1. Make yourself look at home (even if you're not!); 2. Deny easy access; 3. Get others informed, involved, interested; 4. Get a good security system and use it for all it's worth! The experts at Deiter Bros.' 4 Seasons Security Division have a few tips to prevent crimes against your home and loved ones:1. Make Yourself Look At Home (Even If You're Not!) Thieves are discouraged by homes that look occupied. If you're going away, use timers on lights, radios and TVs. Leave drapes and shades open. Ask neighbors to put trash out on trash day. Leave a car in your driveway (even if it's a neighbor's car). Stop newspaper delivery and arrange to have your lawn mowed...a shaggy lawn means the grass is greener for burglars. 2. Deny Easy Access Fact: Burglars spend less than 60 seconds breaking into a home. They may change their minds if you increase this time! Obviously, lock all doors, windows and garage doors. Install deadbolts if you don't have them...a third of all burglars enter through the front door in daytime! Trim your trees and hedges to take away hiding places. Replace burned out yard lights and consider built-in motion detectors. 3. Get Others Informed, Involved, Interested Take time to enlist neighbors, friends and local police in keeping an eye on your property. Return the favor when it's your turn. Tell all how long you'll be gone and fill them in on anyone who MAY need access. Leave a house key and number where you can be reached. For extended vacations, consider a house sitter. 4. Get a Good Security System AND USE IT for all it's worth! Homes without security systems are approximately 2-3 times more likely to be broken into, depending on the value of the property, according to the National Burglar & Fire Alarm Association (NBFAA). Cut down these odds and your chances of a burglary with a security system with 24/7 monitoring.
