5 Ways to Deter Burglars from Your Residential Property

Having security essentials in place is imperative in deterring opportune burglars in your area. The thought of an intruder entering your property is an uncomfortable one. That’s why, as home security installers, we’ve provided this guide to help you protect your home.

Install a Residential Security Alarm

One of the most effective ways to deter burglars is by installing an alarm. In the event of a break-in, a loud alarm can scare off burglars, and even the sight of an alarm system can prevent them from entering your home in the first place. Security systems can include alarms, cameras, and motion sensors, and can be customised to fit the specific needs of your home. These systems can be armed and disarmed remotely from an app on your smartphone, giving you 24/7 access and round-the-clock security.

Use Motion-Sensor Lights

Motion-sensor lights can be a powerful security measure at night. When potential burglars approach your home, the sudden flood of light can startle them and make them think twice about entering. Lights allow neighbours and passersby to see any illegal action and can help security cameras record footage. Motion-sensor lights can be installed around the perimeter of your home and near entryways, such as doors and windows.

Residential Access Control

Control entry to your home with EAV’s residential access control system. Rather than traditional lock and key, choose the way you want to access your doors. Use electronic access codes or biometric scanners to create a more secure property and grant or prevent entry to your home with increased ease.

Keep Your Yard Maintained

A well-maintained yard can help deter burglars. Overgrown bushes and trees can provide cover for burglars, making it easier for them to approach your home undetected. Keeping your yard trimmed and tidy can eliminate hiding spots and make your home less appealing to burglars.

Integrated Alarms

With integrated alarms, you will be alerted to any dangers within the boundary of your property. Security threats aren’t the only thing EAV’s home security protects you from. Be alerted to environmental dangers such as fires with heat and smoke sensors. With our integrated systems you can enjoy total peace of mind from external security threats and internal accidents. Stay connected, stay alert.
