What Security Measures Can Forth Locksmiths Recommend?
Forth Locks pride ourselves in being experts when it comes to home security. Prior to making any recommendations, our team will fully survey your home to get an understanding of the level of security currently in place. Once this has been completed we will be in a position to advise you on the best way to secure your home or business. While there are some obvious methods of home security such as security alarms and CCTV, there are others you may not automatically think of. Some of the other measures that we recommend for homes and businesses include:
- Fitting High Quality Locks – Good quality locks not only protect your home against intruders but are also more resistant to damage so will last much longer.
- Install High Quality Doors and Windows – Choose quality doors and windows with reinforced frames as they will give your home a higher level of protection.
- Keep Your Keys Safe – Never leave your keys near the door or on window ledges in clear sight. Experienced burglars have been known to get keys through letterboxes while key cloning is becoming more commonplace.
- Consider Replacing Locks When Keys Get Lost – If you lose your keys you can never be sure if they have fallen into the hands of an unscrupulous individual. The only way you can be certain you have all the keys to your property is by installing new locks.
- Ensure your Property is well lit – Good lighting at the front and rear of your home or business will deter intruders. Remember, burglars like to operate under the cover of darkness and as such a well lit area is likely to send them in search of easier pickings.
