One of the most frequently used entry points for a home is an attached garage. Here are some home secuirty tips to help prevent criminals from gaining entry to your home, loved ones, and valuables: If you frost or cover your garage windows, burglars won't be able to tell if your car is there or not. Keep your garage door closed and locked even when your car is not in the garage.... Install a peephole in the door separating the house from the garage. If you hear suspicious sounds, you can check without opening the door. If the garage door lifts on a track, a C-clamp can provide extra security since the door cannot be opened if you tighten the C-clamp on the track next to the roller.

With darker evenings, burglars could take advantage of this as vacant homes are easier to spot with no lights or activity. Whether you’re out at night or on a winter getaway, you need to stop opportunistic thieves in their tracks and have a strong level of security protecting your home. A professionally monitored alarm system from Phoenix Security is a perfect solution for providing outstanding security to your household with its 24/7 monitoring and police, fire and emergency dispatch.
