Home Security Tips

Your sliding glass door can be pried up and pulled out to gain entry to your home. A simple and inexpensive prevention trick is to put a screw in the track above the door, then back it out until there is just enough clearance for the door to slide below the screw.







Since the doors in Florida open out, they can be opened by removing the hinge pin. Newer hinges like the one pictured have a pin sticking out that aligns with a hole in the other side of the hinge to prevent the door from being pried open. If your hinges don't have this safety feature you can create a similar feature very inexpensively. Simply drill one hole on each side of the hinge, making sure the holes are in alignment. Then drive a finishing nail into the hole you drilled in the door side of the hinge, leaving it sticking out far enough that when the door closes, the head of the nail enters the hole you drilled on the other side of the hinge. This will prevent the door from being pried open.




Keep your windows open and feel secure that they can't be raised from the outside with this simple window slide lock which is available at most hardware stores. Secure it to the window frame, and the window cannot be raised above the lock.







Lock Bumping is a threat to the security of your home. This old technique has recently been rediscovered by the locksmith community. The widespread availability of bump keys and a bumping tool for five dollars or less over the internet expands this simple technique to 'bad guys' everywhere. Most of the locks you buy in hardware stores today are vulnerable to Lock Bumping. Contact us for information on 'bump-proof' locks.
