Target Practice: Adding the Best Home Security Measures to Your Most Targeted Entryways at Home

Having an attached garage can make your home a prime target for a burglar. 

That's because garages are one of the easiest targets and a favorite method for thieves to gain entry into your household. 

When scoping out potential targets, a burglar will look for entryways with the easiest access, and in most cases, garages are pretty much a golden gate into your home.

Here are 4 tips from theBulldog Bar Squad on how you can improve the door security of your garage to better protect your loved ones & your valuables--

1) Lock it up!
Sounds like common sense right? It’s amazing to hear all the stories about crooks who never have to break into a property... They simply just walk through an unlocked front door or garage. This tip is really easy: Just lock up your garage! 

2) Cover garage door windows!
Burglars are known to look into windows to see if there are any "big ticket" items in plain sight. Don’t do burglars any favors by allowing them see which items you may have in your garage. Replace your garage door with one that doesn't have any windows!

3) Don’t flaunt your stuff!
Leaving your garage open can allow anyone a full view of all of your stuff. Keep your garage door closed at all times, even if you’re just driving down the street for gas. A burglar just needs a couple minutes to take what he needs from your garage-- so don’t give them that chance!

4) Fortify that door!
The door from your garage into your house should be as secure as your front door. Once a burglar is done ransacking your garage, what do you think is next? Your home! Make sure your door is made out of solid-core wood or reinforced steel. This will slow a burglar down, and eventually deter him from gaining entry.

Installing additional door security devices like theBulldog Bar to all your doors can give you the reinforcement you need against home invaders. With theBulldog Bar, your doors can't be kicked in by burglars. Furthermore, these devices are affordable and designed to match just about any interior decor!
