☐ 1. SHARE INFORMATION 

• Ask all strangers for identification. The person who is “lost” and looking for directions could actually be a burglar checking to see if someone is home.
  
• DO NOT advertise on Facebook or Instagram that you are travelling. You may think you’re letting your friends and family know you’re having a great time, but people often forget to change their privacy settings. If you like to post photos - post them after you get back.

☐ 3. KEEP YOUR DOORS AND WINDOWS LOCKED

• Many burglars go door to door looking for targets that forgot to lock their front doors and car doors. Make sure all doors and windows are locked.
  
• If you lose a key get the locks changed.
• A better alternative is to eliminate keys altogether by installing an Alarm.com smart lock with built in keypad.
• Install monitored door and window sensors.
• When your security system is "armed" an instant alert is sent to your smartphone and our 24/7 Monitoring Stations
• Some properties may require security roll shutters to keep intruders out

• Let your neighbours know if there is unusual activity or crime on your block.
• Join your local Neighbourhood Group on Facebook and learn about recent activities.
  eg: Stonebridge Neighbourhood Watch
• Share video and images from your doorbell camera or security cameras.
• Share information with the Police as it may help with an arrest.

LOCK YOUR DOORS AND WINDOWS

• Make sure all doors and windows are locked. 
• Many burglars go door to door looking for targets that forgot to lock their front doors and vehicle doors.
• Install monitored door and window sensors.
• When your security system is "armed" an instant alert is sent to your smartphone and our 24/7 Monitoring Stations.

• If you lose a key, then get the locks changed. A better alternative is to eliminate keys altogether by installing an Alarm.com smart lock with built in keypad.
• Ask all strangers for identification. The person who is “lost” and looking for directions could actually be a burglar checking to see if someone is home.
• Never hide an extra key outdoor - especially underneath a mat or on top of a light fixture. This is the first place the bad guys look. Leave an extra house key with a friend or a neighbor. Again, a better alternative is to eliminate keys altogether by installing an Alarm.com smart lock with built in keypad.
• DO NOT advertise on Facebook or Instagram that you are on vacation. You may think you’re letting your friends and family know you’re having a great time, but people often forget to change their privacy settings. If you like to post photos - post them after you get back.
• For insurance purposes take photos of the contents of your home and keep all receipts in an off-site location. Great options are Google Drive, Microsoft One Drive and Dropbox.
• Write down the model and serial number of all electronics. This will come in handy for a future Police report and insurance claim.

3. MAKE IT DIFFICULT

• Reduce Package Theft by having all shipments delivered to your work (if your employer will allow it). Some delivery companies can hold for pickup.
  Best Option: Shop Local!
  We sponsor your kids sports teams and donate to local charities. 
• Door chains are easy to bypass. Install deadbolts. We have Alarm.com smart lock options with built in deadbolts.
• Install window bars on all basement windows. They are a great visual deterrent and can be connected to a monitored home security system.
• Install a stopper or stick on all sliding doors and windows. You can find these at your local hardware store such as Home Hardware, Canadian Tire or Rona.
• Make sure all doors and windows are locked. Many burglars go door to door looking for targets that forgot to lock their front doors.
• For cabins, consider installing roller window and door shutters. Visit kimbel.ca to see samples.

 
4. MAKE IT LOOK LIKE YOU ARE AT HOME

• Burglars target unoccupied homes so keep your home well lit at night. Install timers that turn lights, radios and televisions on at different times. This gives the appearance that someone is home. A better option is to install Alarm.com smart lights and smart appliance modules and setup on an alternating schedules.
• Cancel the newspaper and have a friend or neighbour pick-up your mail.
• Park a vehicle in the drive-way. Don’t forget to lock the doors and remove any valuables.
• Hire a service or student to shovel the snow off your driveway.
