At New Generation Home Pro, Inc., we believe that true security comes from a multi-layered approach. Our Shield Approach combines advanced technology, proactive monitoring, and tailored solutions to provide the highest level of protection for your home. But in addition to your custom security system, there are some simple steps you can take to further enhance your home’s safety and peace of mind.
Here are five additional ways to secure your home:
1. Install Strong Locks
While your security system actively monitors your property, deadbolt locks on all exterior doors and secure window locks act as a physical deterrent, adding another layer of protection.
2. Reinforce Doors and Windows
Even with cameras and sensors in place, reinforcing doors and windows with security bars or shatter-resistant film can make these entry points more resistant to intrusion. This complements your Shield Approach by strengthening your home’s vulnerable areas.
3. Use Timers for Lights
Your system may track movement, but keeping your home well-lit can deter intruders. Using timers for your indoor and outdoor lights gives the impression that someone is always home, working alongside your security system to prevent unwanted visitors.
4. Maintain Landscaping
Our security cameras are best when they have a clear line of sight. By keeping shrubs and trees trimmed, you eliminate potential hiding spots for intruders and ensure that your system can function optimally. Adding thorny bushes under windows provides a natural defense, working hand-in-hand with your security system.
5. Install Motion-Sensor Lights
Your cameras and alarms provide 24/7 protection, but motion-sensor lights add an extra layer of surprise for anyone approaching your property. They’re a cost-effective way to increase visibility and reinforce your Shield Approach.
With our Shield Approach and these additional steps, you’re not just securing your home—you’re building a fortress of peace of mind. Together, they create a comprehensive, tailored solution to protect what matters most.
