The safety of our customers is extremely important to us. Not only installing and repairing a garage door so it’s safe for the family, but also ensuring that you have other safety tips regarding home break ins. A lot of the times, thieves break in your home through your garage door. So today we are focusing on some helpful tips that will better protect you and your family.
For starters, if you have a cluttered garage and you can’t park inside, be careful! Usually people keep their garage door openers inside their car, in plain sight. If you have to park your garage outside for some reason, it would be helpful to bring your garage door opener inside your house each night. If you have a hard time remembering to do that, it may be beneficial to invest into a key chain remote garage door opener. It would be a small investment that would have great value!
We love beautiful decorative windows on any garage door, but they can also pose a safety hazard. Burglars can look inside your windows to see if your cars are parked inside, indicating if you are home or not. The best way to work around this issue is by frosting or tinting your windows. This allows you to keep your stylish garage door, while increasing your homes safety.
Another tip that can be easily forgotten is the small act of locking the door that leads from the garage into your home. Sometimes we can think that the garage door provides enough protection. But if someone manages to break into your garage, you will want them to be greeted by a locked door. Just the added time it would take to pick a lock or break a lock, could be enough time for them to lose motivation and leave your home.
Take preventive measures to keep your home and family safe! Lock up, close your garage, and take your remote inside with you!
