7. TIPS TO SECURE YOUR HOME
• Ensure that you are the only person in possession of keys. If in
doubt, get the locks changed!
• Maintain your garden. Ensure that there is nowhere for a burglar
to hide.
• Hide external wiring. Copper is valuable and thieves will be on
the lookout for an easy steal.
• Secure doors! A solid and secure steel door prevents any
thieves forcing entry to your home.
• Exterior lighting. Having motion sensed lighting on the exterior
of your home prevents burglars using the dark.
