    Windows are another major entry point. Check that all of your windows have key based window handles and locks .

    Security lighting is a great way to deter burglars that may strike in the dark. A powerful security light will prompt a burglar to move on to an easier target. Place them above doorways and around corners or blind spots, the higher you place them the more surface area they will cover. PIR motion flood lights are best as they can sense body heat and movement in the dark.

    If someone does bypass your security and gets into your home then make sure your belongings aren’t on show. Do not make it easy for the burglar by leaving your prized possessions out on show. Have secret hiding places for your jewellery and electronic goods and think about installing a safe. Burglars will ransack your home looking for cash and anything they can sell so make it hard for them by storing all your valuable items in a sold secure safe, preferably one that can be installed into your wall or floor.
