The story about quorum alarm systems
Is your apartment to be left empty for a longish time while you take a break out of town? That is when the house is most vulnerable to looters breaking in. Here is what that will help you.
* The most advisable solution is to get a home sitter. Having someone stay at home is normally safer than an unoccupied apartment. Try getting a relative or friend to stay at home while you are go away.
* Halt the mail and newspaper delivery when you go away. A full mailbox or newspaper piled up is a sure sign that your house is empty.
* If you have potted plants or a garden have them maintained by someone. Or remove the potted plants away from sight. Wilted and dying plants convey to would be burglars that the home is empty.
* Use timers for tv and lights. Timers should be hooked to lights in multiple rooms. Use a natural looking sequence for lights. The living room lights should come on at sundown. At your regular bedtime the living room lights should be turned off and the lights in the bedroom should be switched on.
If you normally turn on the tv at 7 pm and it remains on till 11 pm set the timer accordingly. The lights in the house may be on but the absence of the bluish tv glow can indicate that the apartment or home is empty.
* See if a neighbor will drop in and check on your apartment or home often. Curtains and windows being opened is evidence that the home is occupied.
* If you rent the apartment or house perhaps you can tell your landlord that the house will be unoccupied. The owner may want to check on the home now and then.
* If you have installed a burglar alarm ensure that the house sitter recognizes how it is to be worked.
* Make sure the house sitter knows how to contact you. Whoever is keeping tabs on the apartment should be aware of who they should intimate should any issues come up.
