The common problem in my community is a lot of theft.Many ways to avoid the inccident.

  • Close and lock outside doors and windows before leaving your home or going to bed.
  • Have deadbolt locks installed on all outside doors and check that your outside doors’ hinges are on the inside of your home.
  • If your outside door has glass panes or there is a window within 40 inches of the door’s lock, you can install a double cylinder deadlock which must be unlocked from both the inside and the outside.
  • Install special locks on sliding glass doors or place a strong dowel, a steel bar or two-by-four, in the bottom track to prevent the door from sliding back and opening.
  • Change your locks immediately if your keys are ever lost or stolen.
  • Never put personal identifiable information on your house keys, such as your full name, address or phone number.
  • When you’re moving into a new home, have all the locks changed.
  • Instead of hiding a spare key outside your home, give it to a trusted neighbor that you know well or a friend who lives nearby for safekeeping.
  • Keep your garage door closed and locked. And lock the door leading from the garage inside your home.
  • If you own a shed, always lock it up.
