  7. Home Burglary • Burglaries normally occur when we are not at home or during the night • Survey during the day and Burglary during the night. • Favorite items are Cash, Jewellery, Laptop computers, VCRs, Video players, Cameras etc. • Look at your home through a burglar’s eyes. • How would you get in if you’d forgotten your keys? • If you can get in, so can a burglar. • Are there places where they could break in without being seen? • Would they have to make a lot of noise by breaking glass?

  8. Distraction Burglary • Some burglars try to trick their way in. • They may say they are: • from the water supply, gas agency, electricity board, NOIDA Authority, post office/ Courier, or • they may ask for a glass of water, to wash their hands or claim to have lost a pet. • In fact, they’ll use any story they can, to get in. • They may be young (even children) or old, male or female, and might work alone or in teams. • They often target the elderly persons.

  9. Security Measures on Door • Door viewer/Magic Eye • Hinges: Check that the door hinges are sturdy and secured. • 3) Letterbox: Never hang a spare key inside the letterbox. • 4 & 5) Rim Latch/ Automatic deadlock • 6) Safety Chain • 7) Deadlock on the door or grill

  10. Entrance • The first step is to make the entry to your home more difficult. • Use a quality, heavy-duty, deadbolt lock. • Use a wide-angle 160°/ 180° peephole mounted no higher than 57 inches. • Make a window in the grill to receive letter(s)/ parcels from Couriers.

  11. Door Viewer/ Magic Eye Lens coverage: 180˚ Height: Less than 145 Cm (4‘ 9“)

  12. Deadlock • Deadlock can be installed on a door or grill. • If you move into a new home, change the front and back door locks immediately. • Never leave your house or car keys in or near a door or window.

  13. Windows • Windows are left unlocked and open more frequently than doors. • An open window, visible from the street, may be the sole reason for your home to be selected by a burglar. • Ground floor windows are more susceptible to break-ins for obvious reasons. • Upper floor windows become attractive, if they can be accessed from a stairway, tree, or by climbing on balconies. • Windows should have secondary blocking devices to prevent sliding them open from the outside.

  14. Windows • Consider fitting security grills on vulnerable windows. • A thief can get through any gap that is larger than a human head.

  15. Home Security Measures Be a GOOD Neighbor • Get to know your neighbors. • Invite them into your home, communicate often, and establish trust. • Good neighbors will watch out for your home or apartment when you are away, if you ask them. • They can report suspicious activity to the police, or to you while you are away.

  16. Home Security Measures • Lighting • Interior lighting is necessary to show signs of life and activity inside a residence at night. • A dark home night-after-night sends the message to burglars that you are away on a trip. • The purpose of good lighting is to allow you to see a threat or suspicious person.

  17. Keep a Dog • A dog is one of the best deterrents. • Not because it's vicious, it need not even be seen, but it has to be heard. • A dog with a menacing bark will scare away burglars. • If you don't have a dog, there's nothing stopping you from pretending - A ‘Beware of Dog’ sign on your fence, a dog house in the back yard, even a loose dog chain or bowl can drive away a potential burglar.

  18. Home Security Measures • If you get home and notice signs of a break-in: • Don’t go in or shout as the burglar could still be inside; • Go to a neighbor’s to call the police – if you think the burglar is still inside, let the police know; and • Don’t touch anything, you could destroy valuable evidence.
