Is Your Home Secure?

Knowing your home’s secure will provide you with peace of mind both when you’re at home or away on vacation. House alarms are of course a very effective deterrent but ensuring that your home’s security is top notch is often more a matter of employing common sense than high tech security systems. (more…)

Put your car keys beside your bed at night. If you hear a noise outside  your home or someone trying to get in your house, just press the panic button on the remote for your car. The alarm will be set off, and the horn will continue to sound with the lights flashing until either you turn it off or the car battery dies.

This tip came from a neighborhood watch coordinator. Next time you come home for the night and you start to put your keys away, think of this:

It’s a security alarm system that you probably already have and requires no installation. Test it. It will go off from most everywhere inside your house and will keep honking until your battery runs down or until you reset it with the button on the key fob chain. It works if you park in your driveway or garage

If your car alarm goes off when someone is trying to break into your house, odds are the burglar/rapist won’t stick around… After a few seconds all the neighbours will be looking out their windows to see who is out there and sure enough the criminal won’t want that.

And remember to carry your keys while walking to your car in a parking lot. The alarm can work the same way there ….. This is something that should really be shared with everyone. Please pass this on even IF you’ve read it before. It’s a reminder.
