The burglary of a home is a very real threat in nearly every part of the country. What can you do to help protect your home from this threat?

First, you can take some practical steps to secure your home. Of course, you know that a security system and good locks on your doors and windows are important. But you might also consider the doors themselves – are they solid wood or metal, or do they have some glass that could allow a thief to break through and unlock the door?

Another thing to think about is lighting. A well-lit exterior is a major crime deterrent – perhaps even more so than good locks.

Also, you can do your best to make the house feel occupied. Keep the outside clean, keep some lights or electronics going at night, and have a trusted friend or family member stay at your home if you have to go out of town for some time.
