• While the holidays are a time of fun, love and
  giving for most of us, others see this time of
  year as an opportunity to take from others, and
  home burglaries often see an increase in numbers
  over the festive period.
• With this in mind, weve come up with a list of 5
  simple but highly effective ways to secure your
  valuables over the holidays from gifts under the
  tree, to high value items you already own, secure
  your valuables with these 5 top tips

• 1.Lock your home at all times
• Keeping your home locked when youre not there,
  and during any period in which someone might be
  able to gain entry without you noticing, such as
  at night time, is your first line of defense
  against burglars. Should you have any faulty
  locks, or believe that your windows or sliding
  patio doors leave you vulnerable, have a local
  locksmith visit your home to assess its security
  needs.

• Use a high security safe
• Even expensive gifts such as jewelry can be
  stored inside a high security safe, but thieves
  will take whatever they can get their hands on
  when they break into your home, so keep all
  smaller items of value stored inside a safe. To
  know more about what you should keep inside a
  home safe, and what should be taken to a bank or
  safety deposit box, talk to a local safe
  specialist.
• The bigger and stronger the safe, the better
  protected your valuable or precious items will
  be, and again, to determine what kind of safe
  would best suit your needs, consult with a local
  safe specialist or locksmith.

• Have a security system installed
• Preventing crime from happening at home is made
  easier with a state-of-the-art home security
  system, and with many smart systems on the market
  today, you can even remotely monitor your home to
  make sure its locked and protected, from
  wherever you happen to be.
• Get adequate insurance coverage
• Some crimes sadly cant be prevented, and if
  youre unfortunate enough to fall victim to a
  home theft, having adequate insurance coverage
  can help you recover your losses.

• Protect your home from natural disaster
• Deadly storms, hurricanes, floods or tornados can
  take place at any time of the year, so its
  important to make sure that your home is safe
  should a natural disaster occur, all year round.
  Adequate insurance is essential, as is keeping
  important documents stored inside a safe. The
  same goes for a fire fireproof or at the very
  least, fire resistant safes are the only way to
  truly protect your valuables at home in the event
  of a fire, and for anything else that wont fit
  inside a safe, take it to the bank and use a
  safety deposit box.

• Dont let thieves or even a natural disaster
  dampen your spirits at this festive time of year,
  by ensuring that your valuables are as well
  protected as they can possibly be.
