Keep all your doors and security gates locked all the time, even when there is more than one person at home. All main doors should be fitted with strong locks. Keep your garden well lit and trimmed to eliminate any possible hiding places. Ensure that your house number is clearly marked on your wall/fence/gate so that it can be easily seen. Consider installing a burglar alarm and panic button, burglar bars and security gates as well as remote control gates and garage doors to prevent you from having to step out of your car when leaving and returning home. When leaving on a holiday, cancel all newspaper and magazine deliveries. Try to install timers that will automatically switch lights on and off in your house to make it appear as though there is someone home in the evening. Call upon a reliable friend to house-sit for you if possible. Ask neighbours to keep an eye on your home and do the same in return.
Never open the door to strangers and alert your family members or friends if you are sending someone unknown to them to their house. Keep cash, valuables and firearms in safe boxes that are securely bolted down. Make it difficult for criminals to operate in your neighbourhood! Report any suspicious persons, noises or sounds to the police immediately.
