How?

• A front door should be locked at all times; this includes when you go to sleep or take a break for the day. You can also install deadbolts on your interior doors as well as external doors.

• You can add extra security to your front door by using a code system. Codes are easy to create and remember so you can quickly access your house when you arrive home.

• Having a working fire escape plan also helps ensure that no one is trapped during a fire incident at home

• As mentioned above, many thieves know that front doors are often left unlocked so they don’t hesitate raiding homes after dark
