4 Ways to Keep Burglars From Your Home

Your home is your safe space. To keep it that way, add a few key features that make burglars steer clear. Here are four tips (and four more here).

1. Locked and Loaded

Lock all doors and windows — windows are easy to forget after airing out the house. If your windows don't have locks, have them installed. For extra security, every exterior door should have a quality deadbolt in addition to the knob lock. Don't hide a spare key under the mat or a flowerpot — give it to a trusted neighbor instead. Need new deadbolts?

2. Light Up Your Life

Floodlights and motion-sensor lights eliminate the dark spots where a burglar could hide and alert the neighborhood to activity in your yard.

3. Landscaping Matters

Keep shrubs trimmed, especially near windows and doors, so there are fewer hiding places. A well-kept yard also signals that someone is home and paying attention.

4. Check Your Car

Park in the garage when you can. If not, lock the doors, close the windows and take valuables inside.
