One out of every ten homes will be burglarized this year, but you can start protecting yourself by investing in home security signs. An easy target house will be a burglar’s first choice and having the proper warning signs prominently displayed in your yard and windows could be the deterrent you need to keep your family and belongings safe. Many different sign types are available, including warnings of alarm systems installed in the house or threat of video surveillance in place or even that a guard dog may be present. Upon seeing those your house will be more likely to be passed over if a potential threat is present.
Stickers that you should place in front and back windows in an easy-to-see location usually come in packs of multiples and typically run from between $8.00 to $15.00. Matching home security signs with warnings of alarm systems in place that can be placed in your yard and seen from the street go for around $20.00 and will usually last for about three to five years.
More heavy-duty signs are also available that are rigid and made of aluminum with a long-lasting outdoor life that can be customized or place on your street with warnings of the area being under a ‘security watch’. Depending on their size and whether they’ve been custom made or not will determine the price, ranging from anywhere between $5.00 and $60.00.
here are many online websites that offer a variety of home security signs and the ability to design your own often with shipping in one or two days. You can also check out your local hardware store to see what selection they have available. Remember, a sign isn’t the same as having a real alarm system but it’s definitely a great first step!One out of every ten homes will be burglarized … Good luck protecting your home and your belongings.
