Secure storage:

Invest in a good quality safe that is both fire and burglar resistant, and store your most valuable items like jewellery, cash, and important documents inside it.

Hidden location:

Place your safe in a discreet location within your home that is not easily accessible to intruders.

Door security:

Use strong deadbolt locks on all exterior doors and regularly check that they are working properly. 

Home security system:

Install a home security system with motion sensors, door/window sensors, and alarms to deter intruders and alert you to potential breaches. 

Lighting:

Ensure your home and the outside is well-lit, especially at night, to discourage potential intruders. 

Neighbourhood watch:

Get to know your neighbours and establish a neighbourhood watch program to keep an eye out for suspicious activity.
