SUMMER SECURITY TIPS & CHECKLIST 2021


Break-in's increase during the summer. Use our checklist to keep the odds in your favour.

☐ 1. SHARE INFORMATION 

  • Let your neighbours know if there is unusual activity or crime on your block.
  • Join your local Neighbourhood Group on Facebook and learn about recent activities.
    eg: Stonebridge Neighbourhood Watch
  • Share video and images from your doorbell camera or security cameras.
  • Share information with the Police as it may help with an arrest.




☐ 2. 
BE SMART

  • Ask all strangers for identification. The person who is “lost” and looking for directions could actually be a burglar checking to see if someone is home.
  • DO NOT advertise on Facebook or Instagram that you are travelling. You may think you’re letting your friends and family know you’re having a great time, but people often forget to change their privacy settings. If you like to post photos - post them after you get back.





☐ 3. LOCK YOUR DOORS AND WINDOWS

  • Many burglars go door to door looking for targets that forgot to lock their front doors and car doors. Make sure all doors and windows are locked.
  • If you lose a key get the locks changed.
  • A better alternative is to eliminate keys altogether by installing an Alarm.com smart lock with built in keypad.
  • Install monitored door and window sensors.
  • When your security system is "armed" an instant alert is sent to your smartphone and our 24/7 Monitoring Stations

 



☐ 4. USE PROPPER LIGHTING 

  • Burglars target unoccupied homes so keep your home well lit at night.
  • Install timers that turn lights, radios and televisions on at different times. This gives the appearance that someone is home. 
  • A better option is to install Alarm.com smart lights and smart appliance modules and setup on an alternating schedules.




☐ 5. INSTALL A SMART SECURITY SYSTEM

  • $0 Smart Security packages range from $34.95/mo. to $79.95/mo. 
  • Protection against intrusion, fire, carbon monoxide, flood, low temperature and more
  • No phone line required
  • Alarm.com smartphone and desktop apps
  • 400% less likely to have a break-in
  • Up to 20% of homeowners insurance - consult your insurance broker



☐ 6. 
INSTALL SMART CAMERAS

  • Get instant alerts when a person is at the front door
  • Speak to visitors
  • All events are recorded and can be used as evidence

LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE REEDHD™ COLORVU MAKES AT HOME

EXIR

Conventional security cameras provide clear images during the day, but the image quality is poor at night.

EXIR Nightvision allows the camera to see in black and white at night.

This "Punk" (played by Hunter Weber) is recorded outside a residence at 10:41 PM with a 5 MP dome camera.

Note: There is a light pole about 130 feet from the security camera and some of the neighbours have their lights on.

  • What color was his hoodie?
  • What color was his hair?



COLORVU

REEDHD™ ColorVu security cameras use high performance lenses and a built in spotlight to see in full color at night.

Here's the same truck break & enter recorded with REEDHD™ ColorVu:




  • What color was his hoodie?
  • What color was his hair?

The Police often rely on video surveillance when they investigate a crime. Quality matters, especially in poor lighting conditions. 

REEDHD ColorVu security cameras capture valuable color information, produce a full color image (even in pitch dark) and simplify the investigation process.
