Home security self assessment
External Doors Does your front door have a robust deadlock i.e. a lock that requires a key to move the bolt forward into the frame? Are your doors or frames free from damage caused by weathering or neglect? Are your front and back doors sufficiently strong to resist forced entry? Do you have a robust deadlock on your back door? Do you lock your doors when you leave the house for even a few minutes? Do you lock your doors at all times when you’re home?
Windows Are your windows and frames in good condition? Do your accessible windows (expect those designated as a fire escape route) have locks with keys? Do you keep your windows locked whenever you leave the house?
Garages / Sheds Do you have strong locks on your shed or garage? If your garage is attached to your house, do you have deadlocks on connecting doors? Do you always lock tools and ladders away?
Outside security / environment Do you have outside security lighting? Is your garden fence in good condition? Is your garden fence high enough to make climbing over difficult? Are trees or shrubs outside your home trimmed well back? Do you have strong locks on your gate or side fence?
Burglar Alarms Do you have a working burglar alarm? Do you set it whenever you leave, and at night when you go to bed?
