Christmas is prime time for Christmas light extravaganzas, pressie deliveries, and crafty crooks. Sadly, home burglaries skyrocket in the lead-up to the silly season. So, protect your home from being plundered this holiday season with some of our home security suggestions.
1/ Smarten up your home
Smart home automation allows you to control all electronic devices from your smartphone or mobile touch screen device. During the holiday season, smart home technology can be beneficial. Turn on your aircon before you get home from work, check who is at your home with a security camera, and even turn your lights on and off while away.
2/ Motion sensor lighting
Motion sensor lighting is a great way to protect your Bellarine home. Exterior lighting for high traffic areas like your front and back doors, garage, or walkways adds security and safety to your home. Plus, motion sensors or timed lighting systems can be a great way to prevent burglars. However, it’s important to note that you should set the lights on for regular times. Choose different times that you would typically be home, not 2 am.
3/ CCTVs or video doorbells
Video doorbells and CCTV cameras are a great way to add more security to your home. Plus, they come without the huge cost of a full security system. Receive notifications when motion is detected, or view a live feed of your outdoor space via your video doorbell. And, as a bonus, video doorbells, and CCTV cameras allow you to check those Chrissie presents are delivered safely. That way you can have your neighbour hide them from the kids before you get home!
