According to the British Crime Survey, over 50% of the burglars avoid security systems and 56% of the jobs are done at night with the majority of the breakers living nearby.
64% of households confess leaving doors open while away and 6% of the victims experience a violent crime. Installing surveillance cameras, security systems with home automation and high security locks is a must factor in these circumstances.
High Security locks protect you from breaking in unless you leave it open or hand the keys it to the wrong people.There are variety of locks starting from deadbolts and knob lobs to lever handles, rim locks and so on, hence choosing the right lock can be overwhelming.
Some locks may not open from the inside leaving you locked in and requiring professional intervention, like Residential Locksmith to get you out by replacing or extracting the keys.
Surveillance cameras are fast, easy and precise and can be connected to security systems, allowing you to monitor every corner of your home. It is good for monitoring activities, detecting behavior and gathering and maintaining data.
Monitored home security systems involve communication via landline, phone or broadband internet in case of alarm, making it convenient to be reached personally or notify a security agency directly. In addition, Home Automation system allows to control your home via phone - changing lights, checking thermostat, watching pre-recorded or live videos or simply enabling or disabling the alarm.
It would be smarter to take all the necessary pre-cautions by choosing the right combination of security features and maintaining full control for your safety.
