Home and Business Security Tips

2. Install Security Lighting – Motion-sensor lights deter criminals from approaching your property unnoticed.

4. Keep Valuables Out of Sight – Avoid leaving valuable items visible from the outside, especially in vehicles, in your yard, on verandah’s or through windows.
5. Secure Your Perimeter – Reinforce fences, gates, and burglar bars to prevent easy access.
6. Be Cautious with Unknown Visitors – Always verify the identity of service workers, delivery personnel, or unexpected visitors before granting them entry.
