-
Fit secure locks to all doors and fit a door chain or bar.
-
Fit visible window locks, including rear or side windows and those above a low roof.
-
Visible burglar alarms make burglars think twice; get specialist advice and consult your insurance company.
-
Use timer switches to turn on lights and radios when you are out to give the impression that your home is occupied.
-
Be alert to strangers loitering in residential streets; if in doubt call the police.
-
Be aware of fire risks and means of escape. Make sure you have a smoke alarm fitted.
-
Never leave spare keys in a hiding place such as under a doormat, in a flowerpot or inside the letterbox.
