Everyday Security Tips

Today, homes without a security/alarm system have a significantly higher break-in rate …. So invest in an alarm system now to protect your home. And use it every day.

While no home is 100% burglar proof, most burglars are attracted to easy targets. By following some simple steps, and by installing a security system from Capital Security, you make your home less attractive to the potential burglar.

Many of us ignore sirens of auto and house alarms because they go off regularly – so make sure your house alarm is connected to the police, fire department, and a central station to ensure someone will respond.

We at Capital Security can provide you with the best security options for your home or business – and you will be part of the overall process.

Some Security Tips:

		Trim shrubs and trees that obscure windows and doors.
		Make sure all the entrances to your home or business are well-lit.
		Keep all doors - including garage doors - closed and locked at all times, even while you are at home.
		Make sure that openings like crawl spaces, skylights and vents are properly protected.
		Make sure you know who is outside before you open an exterior door.
		Install adequate locks on all windows and exterior doors.
		Post your house number clearly and keep it well-lit at night.
