Home security is a top concern for Australians, and there are several ways to improve it. At Secure On, we offer a range of technologies to make your home safer from burglaries, but it's important to use them correctly.
Tip 1: Use CCTV camera coverage across key areas of the home
CCTV cameras are a popular home security solution in Australia. They can help deter burglars and provide valuable evidence if a break-in occurs. It's important to install cameras in key areas of the home, such as the front and back entrances, garage, and other access points.
Tip 2: Use Smart Home Security Products
Smart home security products can help you control and monitor your home security remotely. With these products, you can arm or disarm your security system, receive alerts when someone enters your property, and check your video feeds from your smartphone or tablet.
Tip 3: Install motion and light enabled technology
Outdoor lights and CCTV that are triggered by movement can help deter burglars and provide extra security for your home. However, it's important to ensure that the technology is pet-friendly and won't be triggered by animals.
Tip 4: Get to know your neighbours
Knowing your neighbours and their movements can be an asset in improving residential security. In Australia, it's common to have a tight-knit community where neighbours look out for each other. By building relationships with your neighbours, you can work together to keep your neighbourhood safe.
Tip 5: Be careful on social media
Social media can be a security threat if not managed properly. Avoid posting about your everyday movements and be mindful of your privacy settings. Don't announce when you're going on holiday, and avoid leaving a regular "check-in" history that could reveal your movements.
Tip 6: Keep your keys secure
Make sure you know where all your keys are and create a checklist to ensure that doors are locked, windows are closed, and valuable items are out of sight. Teach your family members to be security-conscious, and consider colour-coding or keyring your keys to make them easier to keep track of.
