SECURE YOUR DOORS AND WINDOWS
Most burglars will look for the easiest way to gain entry to your homes as the unlocked door or open window.
Lock all outside doors and check all your windows are locked. Even if you’re just going out for a few minutes, lock up fully before you go. It is also a good idea to keep the windows and doors locked even when you are in your house.
Good window locks and strong deadbolts can make a big difference. Consult you local locksmith about the strongest, best locks for your home.
Patio sliding doors nerd to have special anti-entry devices that will prevent a burglar from removing them from their frames.
Invest in a secure fireproof home safe that is bolted to a wall or the floor.
Keep valuables away from view from the windows or sidewalks.
Think about marking or etching your possessions with your name, postal code and the number of your house. This deters burglars because it makes stolen property harder to sell.
INSTALL SECURITY DEVICES
Outdoor lighting acts as a deterrent to criminals because it lets them believe that the house is not empty. You can have a low-level light installed that automatically switches on from dusk until dawn. If you prefer, you can get a motion sensor light that switches on when it senses movement outside your home.
Visible and audible burglar alarms will scare away burglars and increase the security of your home. If you install an alarm with an audible bell or siren, it will alert neighbors or passers by who can then call the police. Remote signal alarms will automatically notify the alarm company, which in turn will notify the police. The cost of these does not need to be prohibitive and they are a valuable deterrent to criminals.
Consider a CCTV system. Modern systems can be relatively inexpensive and look a whole lot better than the ugly earlier versions. The monitor can go in a garage, a loft or a cupboard and few burglars will want to be captured onscreen. Should your home be targeted, the police can be provided with valuable evidence on camera.

DON’T GIVE BURGLARS ANY HELP
Many people leave spare keys outside on their porch under a mat or flower pot or property somewhere in case they forget or lose their keys. Thieves will often check theses spots and can simply use that hidden key to enter your home.
Consider leaving a spare key with a neighbor instead. If you lose your house keys or they are stolen, get your locks changed.
