Find Safety Tips For Your Pittsburgh Home And Neighborhood
You might be surprised to find out there’s more crime in your area than you expected. Luckily, there are ways you can better secure your home and keep thieves away from your Pittsburgh neighborhood. Use these tips:
- Get acquainted with your neighbors: Connect with nearby families and look out for one another. Quite a few Pittsburgh neighborhoods have launched official neighborhood watch organizations.
- Install a security system: Whenever a prowler sets off an alarm, it will deter them from lurking around your neighborhood. Outside security cameras are among the most powerful deterrents, as criminals will take steps to avoid being recorded.
- Keep valuables out of your car. Leaving your wallet, keys, or phone in your parked vehicle can result in a break-in. If you can, bring expensive items with you or keep them out of view in the trunk or underneath a seat.
- Use motion-activated lights: Good lighting deters potential burglars. By installing motion-activated lights near the garage or a back door, you can stop an intrusion before it starts.
- Let people know when you leave town: Inform a trusted neighbor when you’re going to be gone and provide a key or smart lock code for emergencies. Don’t post travel plans on Facebook and other social media sites.
