Holidays at the Cottage: How to enhance the security of your home?

Before going on holiday to the cottage, most homeowners
worry about the security of their permanent residence and the protection of
their property. Statistically, most burglars attempt to break into homes during
the summer months due to the low activity in the city. To travel without the
fear of a possible theft and to avoid unpleasant surprises upon your return,
you need to enhance your home's security in a smart way.
Door with a Security Lock
Burglars usually try to break into your home through the front door. Installing a door with a security lock is essential for your safety. Invest in four-bolt security locks to secure the door at multiple points, making it impossible for anyone to force it open.

Security Bolts on Windows
Reinforcing your windows with bolt locks is equally important. Install these locks on your windows and balcony doors for additional protection, as they are not easily breached. Before you leave, make sure that all windows are locked and reinforced with high-strength and durable bolts.

Smart Lighting
Installing motion sensor lighting in outdoor areas can be a
strong deterrent for burglars. The sudden illumination will discourage them, as
they prefer to operate in the dark. Additionally, programming the interior
lights to turn on and off at specific times during the night creates the
impression that someone is home. You can set the lights to turn on during
certain evening hours and turn off at dawn.
Managing the Surrounding Area
Trimming trees around the house will prevent burglars from having easy access, as they will be exposed from all sides. Install a tall and secure fence to make it difficult for anyone to enter the property. Additionally, a high-security gate lock made of iron and brass is particularly essential for safeguarding your property.

Alarm System
A guaranteed security measure is an alarm system. Depending
on your needs and budget, you can equip your home with an alarm system and
install it on the front door and windows.
In addition to implementing the above methods for maximizing
your home's security, you can inform a neighbor, relative, or friend about your
absence so they can visit your home periodically and check on its security.
