Focus on Home Security

Posted in Real Insights | May 11, 2007

Did you know that a few simple measures could dramatically improve your home security? Back doors, patio doors and garage doors are the favoured entry points of intruders, so special attention should be paid to the strength of locks, doorjambs and hinges in those locations. One of the simplest and most secure locks is the deadbolt.  Rigid bars should be inserted into the track of sliding doors. And whatever you do, don’t leave spare keys in obvious places, such as under a mat or inside the garage!  (October 21, 2006)
