Key cutting and car safety

There are key cutting services that help you obtain a fresh set to open your car door locks and start the ignition. Be sure, however, that you are entrusting this very important service to reliable people who will not take advantage of having a duplicate key for your vehicle.

Freezing temperatures and your locks

There are many ways that the deep freeze can affect your lock security. First, it could cause the door frame to expand and contract, which could cause the lock to malfunction and make the door easy to kick open. Second, the locks could freeze and become disabled entirely. Before winter begins, make sure necessary steps are taken to prevent both incidents from happening.

Protecting homes while protecting mother earth

Surprisingly, there are home security benefits that landscaping can bring. It has been proven that keeping the front lawn neat and clean keeps intruders at bay. It puts off potential crimes because intruders get the impression that someone is always at home tending to the property. It helps Mother Earth a lot if you plant new vegetation in the free spaces on your land.

Secure your sliding door

Most sliding door locks are almost no deterrent to a smart intruder who wants to get into your home. One of the quickest and most effective ways to secure your sliding door is to take an old broomstick or mop handle and cut it to fit snuggly inside the floor channel where the door slides open or closed. With the channel blocked, the handle will completely prevent anyone from opening the doors.
