How Secure is Your Home

Use this quick checklist to review your home security.

  Yes No
Is your house number clearly visible from the street?    
Can offenders be seen in your yard?    
Do you have an automatic light timer or sensor activated lights?    
Do you leave lights on when you go out?    
Have you a phone extension in your bedroom?    
Have you keyed in emergency numbers if you own a touchphone?    
Are your front and rear doors solid core?    
Are your doors fitted with a deadlock / deadbolt?    
Do you have a quality security door?    
If you do not have a security door, do you have a door viewer (peephole)?    
Are your windows fitted with key operated locks or security grills?    
Are your louvre windows fitted with bars or grilles?    
Are your locks keyed alike so that one key opens all doors or windows?    
If you have an alarm, is it always used and serviced regularly?    
Is property engraved or marked for personal identification?    
Is your garage locked with quality keyed locks at all times?    
Is your meter box locked?    
Is your garden shed securely locked?    

 

If you answered NO to many of these questions, you should review your security needs.
