What do you keep in your garage? Golf clubs? Expensive tools? Lawn care equipment? Car? You most likely keep certain things in your garage that are valuable to you. Garage break-ins are in the top five ways a burglar enters a home. If your garage is detached, criminals look at it as a lower risk break in. This information leads to the importance of having quality garage security. By following some of these tips, you can avoid the event of one-day walking into an empty garage.
Cameras and Alerts
With our technology and help, you can have security cameras set up around your garage so you can see if there is anybody suspicious snooping around your garage. Also, you can get alerts to your phone with a smartphone app when the garage is opened. When you are out of town and you get an alert that the garage has opened, you can check your cameras from your phone and alert the police if it is a burglar.
Motion Detecting Lights
Having motion detecting lights outside of your garage can deter criminals. Most of them understand that they are more likely to be caught when they are under a light.
Secure Windows and Doors
One reason criminals might be tempted to break into your garage is because they can see through the windows the specific belongings in your garage that they would want. By covering the windows, they won’t be able to know for sure if the risk would be worth the reward. For additional protection, you can bar up your windows. You can also reinforce your garage door and other doors with deadbolt locks for extra security.
Neighborhood Watch
When a neighborhood works together, everybody is safer. You can be observant of your own property but you won’t always be home. If your neighbors are looking out for you while you are gone, then your home is much safer. Help your neighbors out by doing the same for them.
Wait
When you close your garage as you’re leaving your home, make sure it closes all the way before you drive away. You can never be too sure of who is watching or hiding right around the corner. The best way is the safe way.
