With the advancement of technology, although doors and locks are now very advanced, theft still occurs. Especially for girls who rent houses alone, they need to pay attention to safety issues, otherwise it can be very dangerous.
Do not underestimate the thieves, they still have some skills, sometimes even if you lock the door, they can still open it.
Why should you insert the key into the door when going to sleep at night?
Actually, inserting the key into the door when going to sleep at night is a way to prevent burglary. The reason is that usually people install simple locks that can be opened from both sides and just need to insert and turn the key.
However, thieves are becoming more sophisticated. Locked doors are still not difficult for them, because they have professional tools that can break locks in just a few seconds.
Therefore, you should insert the key into the inner part of the door lock, turn the key slightly and leave it like that. With this method, even if someone standing outside uses a key or any object to insert into the lock, they still cannot open the door.
In addition, inserting the key into the door also makes it easy for you to see the key every time you leave the house, avoiding the situation of frantic searching because you don’t remember where you put the key or forget to lock the door. This is especially useful when you need to go out quickly or when there is an emergency situation in the house.
Especially when staying in hotels or guesthouses, in addition to inserting the key into the door lock, you can use a suitcase to block the door at night before going to sleep to ensure safety and prevent unauthorized access.
Other ways to prevent burglary
In addition to inserting the key into the inner part of the door lock, to minimize the risk of burglary, you should also apply the following methods:
– Always lock the main door and windows
Windows and main doors are the main ways for thieves to break into your house. Therefore, before leaving the house or before going to sleep, you should lock the windows and main door tightly to avoid thieves taking advantage of any vulnerabilities to break into your house.
– Reinforce all doors
Reinforcing all doors in the house is essential. Although the lock is secure, if the door itself is not strong enough, thieves can still break into the house as usual.
– Install iron fences, sharp spikes
This is also a good way to prevent burglary. You can use metal fences with sharp spikes on top, or add sharp spikes on concrete fences, or you can plant thorny flower walls such as roses, paper flowers, etc. around the walls of the house to prevent theft.
– Install security cameras
Currently, monitoring camera devices have been updated with numerous features, especially some devices can detect outdoor movements, sensors at the entrance, windows or doors, integrated outdoor alarm systems to alert the surroundings of the intrusion of thieves. Therefore, having a security camera system in the house will help keep us safe.
