Home burglaries are a serious crime that can occur at any time. If you haven’t taken steps to secure and protect your home, the accompanying infographic, Security Tools to Keep Your Home Safe, will give you the motivation and the ideas you need to decrease the risk of becoming a target for burglars. If you have been conscientious about guarding your home, the infographic is still worth studying, as it highlights important data and various security devices of which you may not be aware.

A point well worth keeping in mind is that the majority of burglaries occur during the day, not at night. Many people are diligent about locking up the house before bed, but in reality, doors, windows, and the entire property need to be kept secure around the clock.

While still a frequently occurring crime, burglaries have declined slightly in the last few years, which may be partly the result of improved and less-expensive home security tools. With connected monitoring devices, homeowners can keep a careful eye on their property from virtually anywhere in the world. What’s more, security and patrol companies provide a layer of protection and deterrence to give property owners additional peace of mind.
