You probably don't like to think about crime, but no matter where you live, your income or your lifestyle; crime is a fact of life. That doesn't mean you're defenseless, though. 90% of police believe alarms deter burglary attempts. 1
Put the following tips into action along with the monitored Brink's Home Security ® system to help make your family and home safer and more secure.

| |
| |
Keep shrubbery trimmed
|
| |
Thick shrubbery and trees cover your windows, allowing burglars to work undetected. Plant thorny bushes around windows and walkways.
|
| |
| |
Lock up
|
| |
While this might seem obvious, many people forget to lock the house completely. Make sure all doors and windows are locked when you go to bed or leave your house.
|
| |
| |
Install peepholes on all exterior doors
|
| |
Always ask for identification from repair and service representatives. Never leave them in your home unsupervised.
|
| |
| |
Be sure your address is visible from the street
|
| |
A visible address is vital in emergency situations. Install easy-to-read and illuminated numbers.
