Security is not just about technology — it’s about perception. Most burglars are looking for easy targets. If your home looks risky to break into, many will move on.
Key Deterrence Strategies:
-
Visible Security Cameras – Even fake ones can work, but real ones offer double protection.
-
Motion Lights & Sirens – Sudden brightness or loud noises trigger fear of being caught.
-
Security Signs & Stickers – Simple but effective psychological warning tools.
-
Active Driveway Presence – Park a car in the driveway when you’re away.
-
Smart Home Automation – Timed lights and sounds make your home appear occupied.
Why This Works:
Burglars want quick, quiet, and low-risk jobs. Anything that creates uncertainty or raises the risk of being caught is often enough to make them leave.
