-It is often negligent for people to not take the security of their home seriously and will have cheap lock installed to save some money. If you care about the security of your home, we would recommend to install high quality grade 1 locks on all exterior doors of your residential property the least. Otherwise, it would not take much for a thief to unlock a door equipped with a cheap lock using a Safeway card.
-To enhance the security of the doors surrounding your home, we recommend adding multiple locks for each door. Having number of locks installed on your front door for example will significantly slow any burglar from a successful attempt entering your home. A deadbolt would be a good addition.
-Next step is taking care all windows surrounding the first floor of your home the least by adding special window locks. If you like leaving your windows open at night or when you are gone for fresh air, there are special locks that will lock the moving window i place which will allow you to leave it slightly open and lock it in place.
-In addition to locks in order to secure your home, it is recommended adding some more elements that will make an intruder to think twice before attempting to break into your home at night. Elements such as exterior lighting around your home with the addition of motion sensors. An alarm can also be a nice addition as most alarm system today will automatically notify the police in case of a break-in attempt.
