HOW TO SECURE YOUR DOORS

1. All entrance doors should be made of solid metals
   so that burglars cannot break
2. Use double cylinder deadbolt lock, these locks
   require keys from both the sides and make sure
   cylinder of lock should be of steel guard.
3. A burglar can easily remove the hinge pins and
   lift the door out. So make sure the door is
   closed so that the end of the pin will fit into
   the opposite hole and thus even if the pins are
   removed the door will remain locked to the frame.
4. A padlock is as good as the hasp on which it is
   mounted, so bolt hasps securely to a metal plate
   and make sure the bolt is concealed when the
   padlock is closed
5. The door should not be weak make sure your doors
   are made of metal sheets. If your doors are weak
   chances are burglary can kick in and enter.

   inches from the ground, so that you can have a
   look that who is outside your door and whether to
   open a door or not.

• Alarm systems are the best when burglar enter the
  home alarms rings can warn us that someone has
  entered our home. It should be maintained
  properly as alarm system needs maintenance. It
  should be installed on your entrance or if you
  cannot afford individually then have a society
  meeting and install alarm system during security
  check-ins so that it comes under building
  maintenance and only one alarm system is enough.
• As alarm system needs maintenance make sure to
  test your alarm regularly that its working or
  not. Do not write alarm code anywhere as then
  anyone can know your alarm code and that will not
  be secure anymore. Make sure alarm system is
  charged, a backup should always be available.

   and off during day and night so that your home
