Safety Tips for Your Home
- Keys: before you get home, take your keys, look around you and use the shortest time to enter.
- Lighting: we recommend illuminate outdoor areas and access to your home. One option is to make use of a lighting which is activated by movement. This will allow you realize someone’s presence.
- Strangers: avoid the entrance to your home to strangers. If asked to enter an emergency, it is better that you apply to the appropriate authorities.
- Identity: if you have children, teach them to but are unsure of the identity of the caller at the door, do not open the door.
- Services: if you applied any service before entering your home requests to be fully identified; otherwise, do not open the door.
- Information: no strangers reporting your activities, your family or neighbors.
- Objects: avoid placing items of value that can be seen from the street or through the windows, as this could attract criminals. Avoid having more money at home.
- Messages: if you leave your house, avoid leaving obvious indications that there are; never put messages on the door indicating your absence.
- Doors: when you leave your home, check that doors and windows are kept closed, to prevent the entry of any foreign to your home. It is also recommended to install a panoramic peephole to see who called to the front door, especially at night.
- Directory: have at hand a directory or cards containing the emergency numbers, so if the need not waste time.
