Could Your Patio Doors Make Your Home Vulnerable
to Thieves?

• Its common to heavily secure your front door or
  main entrance, but what about other doors that
  lead into your home, such as patio doors? Have
  you ever thought that you might need to make them
  more secure, even if theyre not at the front of
  your property?
• In many cases, homeowners really do take
  advantage of their sliding patio doors,
  especially if they lead out onto an attractive
  exterior space, and leave them open for hours at
  a time. They also like to leave them without
  drapes or blinds, since it allows more natural
  light into the home. But unfortunately, the very
  things that make patio doors so wonderful, are
  the very things that make them so vulnerable to
  thieves and intruders.

• Why are patio doors such a weak security area?
• An open patio door during the daytime is a
  virtual invitation for thieves to come on in and
  help themselves to whatever they see, or to scope
  out a home out for a future burglary attempt
  under the cover of darkness. Even if you close
  your patio doors when its dark outside, or as
  soon as you go to bed, if you dont have drapes
  or blinds hanging up, anyone can see inside and
  check out what they might be able to get their
  hands on.

• What can you do to make your patio doors more
  secure?
• If your sliding doors have already been
  compromised in a previous burglary attempt,
  youll need to reach out to a local, licensed
  locksmith as soon as possible, for a patio door
  locks replacement. However, if youre seeking
  ways to prevent an intrusion, and are aware that
  your patio doors are less than secure, a
  locksmith can install a reinforced lock that can
  only be unlocked from the inside of your home.

• Experts in helping homeowners protect their
  property and its inhabitants, licensed locksmiths
  can make sure that your patio doors are
  ultra-secure, while still enabling you to get the
  most out of them, and theyll probably advise you
  to hang some drapes or a blind up over them, to
  prevent your belongings from being on ready
  display.
• If youve got sliding patio doors at your home,
  and are worried that they might be making your
  home vulnerable, reach out to a local, licensed
  locksmith and have them carry out an assessment
  at the earliest. If necessary, they can upgrade
  and reinforce the locking system to make them as
  safe as your front door and any other entrance
  and exit points.
