If burglaries and porch pirates are a problem in your neighborhood, and your home doesn't have a home security system, you want to talk with a locksmith about all your security needs. You don't to go over things from the types of locks that you have on the doors, to getting protection for your valuables inside the home, and a camera system for outside the home. Here are some of the things that the locksmith can help you with, so you feel safe in your home, and so your home is protected when you are away.

New Deadbolts and Entrance Locks

A deadbolt lot for every door that leads to the outside of the home is ideal, because they are very difficult to break. If you are missing deadbolt locks, talk with the locksmith about getting options that require you to punch in a code, and then turn the lock. If the doors have been kicked in, you need a new door with a thick metal kick plate in the center, and then additional deadbolt locks.

Exterior Front Door and Perimeter Cameras

Camera systems don't have to be expensive, and you don't have to spend hours watching the cameras to see if anything happened when you were gone. Talk with the locksmith about cameras that send you a notification when someone is lingering within the sensors of the property. These can go around the house, so you are notified is someone is approaching anywhere on the property.

 You open the application and see what is going on immediately with your smart phone or tablet, allowing you to send for the authorities if needed. This also allows you video proof to report theft.

Interior Safe for Storage

Interior storage in a safe for your jewelry, cash, and other valuable belongings or documents is a must. Not only do you want a safe that is resistant to fire and water, or getting broke open, but you also want to find a very safe place to put it. You don't want anyone finding it and trying to steal it.

These are just some of the things that you can do when you know that there are potential intruders and burglars in your area, or that people have packages going missing. Talk with a locksmith so they can evaluate your home, and follow their security recommendations so you know that everything is protected ad safe.
