Blog » How to Improve Home Security On a Budget
Every 106 seconds a house is burgled in the UK, so it’s no surprise that we have seen a rise of Ring doorbells and expensive security systems in the media. Being on a budget does not mean compromising quality when it comes to protecting the things and people you love. Here are some top, low-cost home security tips and tricks that you can utilise right away.
The foundations of a solid and safe home expand much further than internal alarm systems. Follow these quick and easy steps to improve your home safety.
Plenty of cheap systems exist to help you maintain your home security. Not every piece of equipment needs to be top-of-the-range, and there are plenty of low tech security ideas available to prevent break-ins. Doing something is always better than doing nothing, as the best and most effective tools are the ones that will deter a burglary from occurring in the first place.
Investing in new exterior doors can be a costly and timely investment. Improving your home security starts with assessing your current situation and identifying what can be improved without spending big. Start by securing your external doors.
Choosing the right and most secure external doors can depend on the materials used and all come in a vast range of styles. Hardwood doors are known to be the most viable option when it comes to door security; their solid core makes for a sturdy and effective barrier against physical break-ins.
UPVC doors encase an insulated steel frame to support the foundations of the door, making them a deceptively secure choice. Other alternatives can be found in aluminium external doors – which are made from strong, inexpensive metals that are easy to treat and repair.
French patio doors are more secure than many perceive. A burglar is less likely to smash the glass and draw attention to themselves, or risk cutting themselves on the broken glass. There are still ways to improve your French door security on a budget, however.
Patio foot locks fasten to the inside of the door and clamp to the floor with the rail bed, making the door harder to pry and open from the outside.
Home security does not fall beyond a little DIY and perseverance. If you’re not confident with your fittings, don’t be afraid to replace some screws and hinges. Check your locks of all windows and doors and secure, and assess the outside for any wear-and-tear.
