Home Security for the Prepper
ou are prepared for whatever may come. You have enough food, water, and supplies to last you and your family for years if necessary. You also have a small (or large) investment in equipment, guns, ammo, and all the other necessities to keep you alive while the rest of the world suffers.
But when the inevitable strikes, will you be able to keep your family and supplies safe from others. If you currently have a home alarm installed on your house, will it still function once the power goes out? What about other security measures around your property? This article will consider the some measures you can take to ensure the protection and survival of your family.
Here are some great tips for Home Security
Home Alarms
You might have a state of the art home alarm system installed in your house, but when the lights go out permanently, how effective will it be. A low tech system that generates an alarm or noise when the contacts are tripped may be all you need. A loud alarm will scare off all but the most determined thieves, and give you the heads off to deal effectively with the rest.
Ensure all of your windows and doors are on the system. Wireless systems are now available that can be installed without breaking the bank or tearing out drywall. Additionally, look into systems that can run on battery or solar power.
Security Measures for the House
Multiple locks - You’ve all heard this a million times, but secure your doors with multiple locking mechanisms. Several dead bolt locks is not overkill. Also be certain that your door frames can withstand the punishment of someone determined to break in as well.
