Make sure you have had an alarm system installed into the residence. When installing the alarm, go for one that provides for central monitoring. An alarm, that is centrally monitored, will mean that help will be dispatched to you house in the event that there is a break in.

Any wiring, that is performed during the alarm system installation must be concealed. Burglars will first look for exterior wiring before breaking in. By ensuring that all wiring is concealed, you will be making it harder for burglars to disarm the alarm system.

Lighting is a great way of keeping thieves away from your residence. Utilize infra-red lighting to turn on the lights when someone approaches a particular zone. The lights will automatically turn on when a thief is within that zone. Given that no thief wants to be seen committing a crime, he will easily be deterred.

Exterior doors should have deadbolt locks installed on them. Deadbolt locks are traditionally more expensive than the spring latch locks, but they also tend to be stronger. You could also reinforced your doors with plywood making it harder for burglars to gain entrance by forcing the door open.

It is common for house owners to have sliding doors installed at the entrance to the patio or the deck. Even though this is a great decision, you will still need to have the glass doors reinforced through the use of metal bars. Metal bars should be placed at the bottom of each door.

Windows are often used as the entry path to a house by a burglar. In houses where large windows have been used, it becomes easier to gain entrance as all one has to do is to break the window. As such, you should only use smaller panes instead of large ones.
