Basic safety around your home

Good outdoor lighting with a motion sensor deters unwanted visitors. Regularly check that windows and doors close properly, and use a timer for indoor lights when you are away. Small measures make a big difference.

Know your neighbors

An active neighborhood community is your best security system. Get to know your direct neighbors, exchange phone numbers, and agree to keep an eye on each other's homes. In a suspicious situation you will be able to act faster than any system.
