Although recent anti-theft campaigns have been enhancing safety in Melbourne and Sydney, homeowners are still encouraged to prioritise safety and protect their homes.
In addition to basic home security measures such as making your front door more secure, here are some other key home security tips.
#1 Secure Valuables Out of Sight
Most burglars don’t break in at random; they often scout neighbourhoods beforehand to identify houses that appear to contain valuable items, and that may be easier to enter than others.
To avoid making your home a target, keep valuable possessions out of view from windows and doors. While a criminal might not directly target the antique grand piano in your front window, they may take it as a sign that you have more valuable items inside your home. Be cautious with your furniture or decor placement and keep valuable items away from windows and doors. Avoid displaying high-end sculptures, art, or other valuables outside that could be seen as obvious signs of wealth.
#2 Mind Your Landscaping and Lighting
It’s a well-known fact: criminals prefer to break into a house unseen. They might take cover in overgrown landscaping during the day or use a side entrance, sliding doors, or dimly lit garage door as an entry point at night.
Enhance your home’s security by making it unwelcoming to thieves. Trim back any unruly shrubs or trees that obscure windows, entrance doors, or garage doors. Look at your home from a criminal’s perspective, identifying potential hiding spots where suspicious activity could go unnoticed. Wherever those places are, expose them and illuminate them. Whether you choose cost-efficient solar lighting or startling motion-sensor lights, the goal is to light up your home’s entry points to deter potential burglars.
#3 Make Your Windows Impenetrable
If a thief can’t get into your house through a door, they’ll likely target a window. Ensure your windows are fortified against break ins—consider reinforcing window locks with a robust strike plate and install security grilles for windows that are as tough as steel.
Crimsafe security grilles feature Tensile Tuff Security Mesh, which is made of 304 Grade Stainless Steel. They include a unique Mesh Clamp System that sandwiches and screws the mesh between two serrated metal pieces, creating the strongest screen you can get for your windows. Best of all, Crimsafe security grilles maintain your home’s curb appeal while allowing air to flow freely, keeping insects out, and ensuring the safety of every family member across a large range of potential entry points.
