Building or Remodeling a Home? Think About Lock Security
As you embark on the exciting journey of building or remodeling your home, it's crucial to prioritize one of the most essential elements for your family's long-term safety: security.
According to the National Crime Prevention Council, about 60% of burglaries occur without forced entry, often due to an unlocked door or window or the use of a duplicate key.
Residential burglary is a common crime, yet it’s one of the most preventable. Simply locking your doors and windows with proper lock security is an effective and affordable deterrent.
Key Steps for Home Security
Secure Your Doors
Begin by installing deadbolts on exterior doors. Deadbolts come in various types, such as key-operated from both sides, from the outside with an inside thumb turn, or thumb turn only from the inside. Consult your local crime prevention authority to determine the best lock for your area.
Choose High-Security Locks
Not all locks offer the same level of protection. Opt for high-security locks, like those from Medeco, which resist drilling and picking. These locks require proper identification for key duplication, ensuring that only you can authorize copies.
Protect Sliding Glass Doors
Sliding glass doors can be vulnerable entry points. Use special locks and bars to prevent prying or lifting. Additionally, placing a wooden dowel or broom handle in the track can enhance security.
Don’t Forget Windows
Traditional double-hung windows, with top and bottom sashes, are popular in many homes. Secure them with window sash locks, which attach to the sashes to keep them closed.
By considering these security measures during your building or remodeling process, you can help ensure your home remains a safe haven for years to come.
