Peace of mind is priceless

How best can I protect my home while I’m on holidays?

Make your house look occupied – park a car in the drive, use timer switches on internal lights, and use external automatic lights.

Check the strength of your door and window locks; can they easily be prized open? Remember the patio door or any ground floor window at the rear are favourite points of entry for a burglar.

Check that your windows are all closed before you depart. Fit a door chain to the front and rear doors.

Cash, jewellery and small electronic goods remain the juiciest target as they can easily be resold. Consider a strong safe.

Is your garden shed secure? Many sheds now house expensive bicycles or lawnmowers.

Before you leave home, have a walk around to double check the perimeter of the house.

Good neighbours are priceless, keep them abreast of your holiday arrangements.

Always use your monitored alarm system. In this way your keyholders and the Gardaí will be notified of an attempted intrusion.
