Home Security and Your Windows

Homeowners want to do all they can to protect their home and property against theft. And windows are some of the most vulnerable access points. In fact, most burglars look for easy access through unlocked windows. So, having a window replacement done with security in mind can play a pivotal role in deterring break-ins at your home.

The security of your window should have many layers of protection; it should combine security products with best practices. When upgrading or replacing the windows in your home, consider your options: look for high security residential windows that have built-in security features such as reinforced frames, impact-resistant glass, locks that are accessible only from inside the home, etc. And make sure the new windows are installed properly by a reputable professional.

Note that your windows themselves aren’t the only factors to consider when it comes to keeping your home safe and secure. Even the best windows for home security are vulnerable access points; they are the most common points of entry known to burglars. Because criminals enter so often through windows, these access points need to be secured well–and that means beefing them up as much as possible. For even greater window security, having a home security system professionally installed can be key. Home security systems that include entry sensors for your windows are a good option; this type will sound an alarm whenever a window is opened or broken. They also can send an alert to your professional home security monitoring company so that they can contact law enforcement and dispatch them to your home.

The wide variety of home security systems available in on the market today have a range of features to benefit homeowners. Common features available with many security systems include things such as wireless monitoring with smart home integration, doorbell cameras, motion sensors, fire/smoke detectors, carbon monoxide alarms, security lighting, and  home security window sensors (also used for other entry points including front/back doors and garage doors).

Consider having a home security system professionally installed and monitored to ensure your home is as protected as possible. Home security systems can help prevent crime by making trespassers and thieves much less interested in your home as a target.
