It is important to realize that there is no such thing as a burglar-proof home or a lock that cannot be picked, drilled or bypassed.  If someone is dedicated enough, skilled enough and has the proper tools, he will get in, no matter what measures you take. That's the bad news.

The good news is unless you have done something to annoy the wrong person or you have something really worth stealing you are not going to have to worry about that kind of dedication to break in. So you don't have to turn your home into a reinforced bunker.

What you can reasonably do, however, is make it hard enough that the average criminal will decide to ply his trade elsewhere. This simple shift in perspective goes miles toward keeping you, your family and your possessions safe. Criminals are not famous for their work ethic. On top of that, they, literally, live and die by calculated risks. Assessing labor and risk are very much criminal skills. Too hard and too risky are the best defenses you have. Since the criminal is not interested in getting "you" personally, it's easier for him to inflict his criminality on others where there is less work and fewer risks. This is not good news for your neighbors, but it keeps you and your property safe.

What can you do: LOCK YOUR DOORS AND WINDOWS, install deadbolts, install good quality sliding glass door locks, don't hide keys outside (they know where to look), install motion activated flood lights, consider installing a monitored alarm system.

We can provide you with a complimentary physical security evaluation, to evaluate any improvements you can make.
