If, for whatever reason, you have not yet ordered property security from GROUP Four, please note the following key protection methods:на следующие ключевые способы защиты:
Entrance door:
According to statistics, 72% of all break-ins into houses or apartments occur through the door. To protect the most vulnerable place in your home, it is worth considering a good metal door. Preferably with two sturdy locks and a peephole.
Keys:
Many Kazakhstani people have a habit of hiding their keys in easily accessible places. Our company’s advice: don’t do this. Burglars will check the doormat and mailbox first. Don’t trust your keys to strangers. And if you lose your keys, try to change the locks immediately.
Windows and balconies:
When turning off the lights, don’t forget to close the curtains. Make it a rule to check the windows and balcony doors when leaving your house or apartment. Is everything closed? Then you can go ahead. Another useful addition would be window bars, especially if your apartment is on the first floor.
The company offers a consulting service. Our specialists will visit your home, assess it, and offer options for reinforcement and protection.
Lighting:
Think carefully about lighting. Experience shows that thieves are afraid of bright, well-lit places. Sensor- and infrared-activated lights are very popular now. Not only do they save energy, but they also turn on when moving objects appear. Think about it.
Fence, garage, farm buildings:
To deter thieves, put up a high fence. Another way to protect your property is to plant a hedge with thorny branches. Check that your garage and shed are locked. Put away your tools and ladders—they could be stolen and used against you.
Strangers:
Yes, we are not the first to tell you this, but it is better to remind you again. Do not open the door and do not let strangers into your apartment. Check the documents of people who introduce themselves as employees of social, utility, or other services.
Vacation and weekends:
In our experience, burglaries usually occur when the house is empty. Try to ensure that only your friends know about your absence. Do not tell your neighbors about your work schedule or when you are going on vacation.
One sign that the owners are not at home is a full mailbox. Ask your friends to collect your mail—this will attract less attention.
Соседи:
Neighbors are excellent helpers. Befriend them. They will be the first to notice a suspicious person near your home or hear noise coming from your apartment.
Ценности:
Do not keep valuables at home. Experienced thieves have long been familiar with all possible hiding places. It is better to keep your money in a bank account or use a safe deposit box at a bank. Another option is to purchase a reliable safe.
According to experts, the best security is technical security:
Security alarm, video surveillance system, intercom – we can help you choose the best option for you. By installing an alarm system in your house or apartment, you can be sure that your property is safe. If an intruder tries to break in, the alarm will go off and mobile security guards will immediately arrive at the scene. You will be kept informed of everything that is happening – you will receive an alarm notification.
