Keeping Your Property Safe This Festive Season: Tips to Prevent Break-Ins
The festive season is a time for celebration, gatherings, and relaxation. Unfortunately, it’s also a peak period for criminal activity, particularly in Durban, where break-ins often increase during this time of year. Whether you’re hosting a function or spending time away from home, it’s crucial to ensure your property is secure.
At Asset Security, we understand how important it is to feel safe, especially when you’re most vulnerable. Here are some practical tips to help you protect your property and loved ones during this festive season.
1. Secure All Entry Points
Before hosting an event or leaving your home, double-check that all doors, windows, and gates are securely locked. Invest in high-quality locks and consider reinforcing doors with security gates.
2. Install a Reliable Security System
A modern security system with cameras, motion sensors, and alarms is a powerful deterrent. Make sure the system is fully operational and, if possible, monitored by a professional security service like Asset Security.
3. Light Up Your Property
Ensure that your home is well-lit, especially at night. Motion-activated outdoor lights can deter intruders and help you stay aware of any unusual activity.
4. Be Discreet About Your Plans
Avoid broadcasting your holiday plans or event details on social media. Criminals often monitor online platforms to identify potential targets.
5. Utilize Professional Security Services
Consider hiring professional security personnel for large gatherings or extended absences. A visible security presence is a strong deterrent against potential intruders.
6. Build a Good Relationship with Neighbors
A trustworthy neighbor can be invaluable. Let them know if you’ll be away, and ask them to keep an eye on your property. Offer to do the same for them.
7. Secure Valuables
Keep valuable items like jewelry, electronics, and important documents locked away in a safe. If possible, avoid leaving items visible through windows.
8. Regular Patrols and Monitoring
