Tips to Prevent Burglars from Observing Your Habits

To prevent burglars from watching and discovering your routines, change the routes you take and the times you come home from work. Make sure to regularly check if anyone is following you. Be observant of unfamiliar individuals or cars in your area for multiple days in a row.

Restrict Access to Your Security System

It's crucial to limit access to your installed security system to only individuals whom you completely trust. This is an extremely sensitive topic that carries a significant responsibility in safeguarding your home or business. Make sure to select only those whom you can rely on to handle this responsibility.

Secure Doors and Windows

It's essential to ensure that all entry points to your residence are tightly locked when you're away. Intruders must encounter significant obstacles while attempting to break in. This can be a crucial factor in preventing their efforts.

Avoid Sharing Vacation Plans on Social Media

In today's world, it's become common to share our plans on social media. However, disclosing information about an extended absence from your home on social networks is simply another invitation for burglars. Verisure highly recommends refraining from doing so to ensure your safety and security.

Importance of Properly Insulating Plugs, Cables, and Heaters

It's crucial to appropriately insulate plugs, cables, and heaters to ensure your safety. Use swivel plugs or those with deep pins. Never leave stripped cables or those held together with tape or any adhesive that doesn't insulate the current. Additionally, it's important to keep radiators out of children's reach to prevent any accidents.

Educate Your Children about Stranger Danger

It's essential to teach your children how to handle strangers to ensure their safety. Here are some simple yet effective tips: Educate your children on how to call for help during emergencies, not to open the door to strangers, and not to share personal information if they receive a call from an unknown person.

Avoid Storing Valuables at Home

It's crucial never to store significant amounts of cash or valuable items at home. If storing certain items or money at home is absolutely necessary, Securitas Direct recommends using a safe to ensure the security of your belongings or money.

Lock Doors and Avoid Hidden Keys

It's essential to lock all doors with keys, and it's highly recommended that each door has at least two locks. Never leave a spare key near your home, as this is the first place burglars will look. You don't want to make their job any easier.

Proper Lighting for Your Premises

Adequate lighting inside and outside your premises is a simple yet effective way to deter thieves. Ensure that all external and internal spaces are well-lit, especially at night. Avoid leaving any doors or parking areas in darkness. Additionally, to enhance the security of your business or home, you can consider using the Verisure Alarm perimeter detector.

Secure Cash Registers

Cash registers are often the primary targets for thieves, so it's important to keep as little cash as possible in them. Avoid leaving unnecessarily large amounts of cash lying around and take steps to secure your cash registers. By doing so, you can greatly reduce the risk of becoming a victim of a hold-up.

Vigilance During Business Opening and Closing Times

Business owners should stay alert and vigilant during the opening and closing times of their premises, as these are the most vulnerable times for criminal activity. Criminals often take advantage of these times to carry out their illegal activities. It's important to be aware of your surroundings and to ensure that there is nothing suspicious going on around you when opening or closing your business.

Use strategies to make your home look occupied

When you're away for a long time, it's important to make your home appear occupied to deter thieves from targeting it. You can program lights and appliances to switch on and off at specific times using new technology. Additionally, it's a good idea to ask someone you trust to collect your mail regularly.
