Home Security Blog

There are a lot of different ways to protect your home and keepthe ones you love safe . Obviously it would be pretty difficult to protect your home with an onion but bare with me I’ll make some sense of this for you.

When it comes to maintaining a safe home it is not enough to have a few extra locks on the door or a fearsome guard dog . When most people attempt to keep their home safe they tend to think they will be okay if they just slap in a burglar alarm . In some cases that would be fine but in most it is not sufficient.

What if some crazy criminal guy decides to do a “smash and grab”? They can be in and out of your house pretty quickly. In that short amount of time your house can be trashed and your valuables taken. Worst yet if you live in an areawith a high crime rate the police are probably a little busy. That only increases the time it would take them to respond to a Burglar Alarm at your home.

This is exactly why you want to you want to design your home security as cleverly as possible. The goal is to make your home both unappealing for anyone that may target you or downright frustrating for anyone that would attempt to break in.

This best way to do this is using a layering technique commonly known as the “onion technique”. The idea is build each part of your home security off another part to form layers of defense. It is very straight forward and obvious but you would be amazed by the low number of individuals that think to do this .

This is part one of a 2 part post. Keep your eyes open for our next post, with actual examples of how to implement this technique.
