Interested in some DIY home protection tips for your San Diego home? You’ve come to the right place. At Best Security Products, we know a thing or two about how a burglar thinks. Your best defense is a professionally installed home alarm system. But in the event a burglar does make it into your home, the smart thing to do is to make his job as hard as possible for him.

When a burglar breaks into your home, his main objective is to get in, find your valuables and then get out – as quickly as possible. This means you job is to slow him down. You need to make it so hard for him to find your valuables that he gives up and leaves.

home protection San DiegoHere are a few tips:

1. Don’t hide valuables under your mattress. Why? Because crooks know about that hiding spot too and may search there first! Rather, cut a hole in the end of your mattress and place valuables inside. Sew the hole up and then rotate your mattress so that end is up against the headboard.

2. Purchase fake electric outlets. These are boxes that look like the real thing but instead provide a place for you to store small items in such as jewelry and cash. In order to find your items, a burglar would have to use a screwdriver to remove many outlet covers in your home, and this in itself is unlikely!

3. Do you have a tool or garden shed in your backyard? If so, consider putting a false floor in it and store valuable underneath the false floor. Even though a burglar might raid your shed looking for power tools and other outdoor equipment, it is unlikely that he would take the time to tear up the floor looking for valuables!
