Inside story on how is a home security camera wired
Is your apartment to be unoccupied for sometime while you holiday? That is when your home is susceptible to thieves breaking in. Here are several specific things to do to make your home safer.
* The best way to defend your apartment is to get a home sitter. Having someone in is very likely safer than an unoccupied apartment. Try to get a trusted friend or relative to stay at your house when you are away.
* Stop the mail and newspaper delivery while you are on vacation. A mailbox that is overflowing or piles of newspaper informs potential thieves that nobody is home.
* If you keep a garden or have potted plants that are visible have them watered by someone. Alternatively ensure that the potted plants are kept where they are not visible. Untended and wilted plants show that the apartment is empty.
* Timers on lights and tv will help. Timers should run lights in several rooms. Use a natural looking sequence for lights. Living room lights should come on at sundown. At your regular sleeptime living room should turn dark and switch on the bedroom lights.
If you generally switch on tv at 7 pm and keep it on till 10 the timer should do the same thing. The lights in the house may be on but the lack of the tv's bluish glow might be enough evidence that no one is home.
* Ask a neighbor to come in to your apartment on a regular basis. Windows and curtains being opened is evidence that the home is occupied.
* If you rent a home it is usually a good idea to tell the owner that the house will be empty. The landlord may want to check on the home now and then.
* If you have an alarm or protection system installed see to it that the the person who is doing the house sitting is familiar with how to work it.
* Make it a point to see that you leave your contact details with the house sitter. Whoever is checking on the home must be well aware of who they should contact should any issue crop up.
