Residential Security

Residential Security

Most residential burglaries occur during the weekday when homeowners are at work. Occupancy, or the appearance that someone is home, is the single greatest deterrent for burglars. Nearly half of all illegal entries into the home occur through an open or unlocked door, particularly an open garage door.

Before investing in an alarm or selecting specific security hardware, contact community policing for a free security survey.
