General tips • Mark your property with unique identifiers like a driver's licence number, serial numbers, or other identifying marks or details which include make and model, or photographs of valuables in case property can be returned to assist with investigations. • Report suspicious people or vehicles. • Lock windows and doors, close window blinds when leaving the property unattended. • Repair or secure access points like locks, garages, doors, windows and fences or gates. • Increase occupancy indicators, like having automatic lights, emptying the mailbox, have neighbours or family check on property, leave a radio or TV on. • Install alarm system or security cameras. When leaving the home unattended, especially for extended periods: • Let trusted neighbours know how long you will be away. • Ask a neighbour to take in mail, shovel the sidewalk or mow the lawn. • Give a trusted neighbour a key or lock code and have them check on the home regularly. • Leave a contact number. • Have a neighbour use your driveway to park their vehicle so it appears someone is at home. --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2016-08-03 15:03:41 Post date GMT: 2016-08-03 19:03:41 Post modified date: 2016-08-04 09:01:37 Post modified date GMT: 2016-08-04 13:01:37 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
