Loud & Clear: How Noise, Lights & Time Can Improve Your Door Security Against Burglars

theBulldog Bar Squad is making it loud & clear: Noise, light & time can significantly increase door security at your household (which means you can be even more protected against burglars).

It's true! By using these 3 omnipresent elements to your advantage when it comes to burglary prevention, your humble abode can have the best home security measures in place at all times. 

Here's how:

Silence isn't golden, NOISE is!Any slight noise on your turf can serve as huge deterrent for a potential thief to proceed with his (or her) plans. That's why we at theBulldog Bar urge you to get a pet! Keep in mind-- this new companion at your castle doesn't necessarily have to be a "yappy" dog... It could just be some small critter or feathered friend (like a guinea pig or a duck) that's capable of making noise when any spontaneous movement is detected on your property. If your adopted animal must live outdoors, that's an added bonus. They'll be the first to alert you of any suspicious activity taking place outside your door.

Look on the bright side... with LIGHTS!

Make sure all your exterior lights are nice & bright. They can act as spotlights on any trespassing criminal hoping to break in. Another strategy to take into consideration is installing your outdoor fixtures up high or "out of reach" so invaders can't easily get to them to unscrew the bulbs. The use of variable timers on all your illumination devices can especially work to your advantage when you are away for a few days, because your home will deceivingly appear occupied to the "bad guys."

Stop... Hammer TIME (literally)!
Make it a time-consuming task for home invaders to gain entry into your domicile. By taking a few minutes to put in some effective double or deadbolt locks, you can make it too much of a headache for a burglar to try and get past your entryway!

Another way to put time on your side is to invest in theBulldog Bar as an added reinforcement to your high-quality locks. Our door security products are so powerful, no burglar will be able to kick in your door to commit a crime at your residence.

Gone in 60 Seconds: Why Alarms May Not Be the Best Home Security

As homeowners we sometimes make the mistake of relying solely on one security product to protect our residences from break-ins.

If one of those devices you depend on most happens to be an alarm system... you may want to continue reading. 

Here's 3 reasons why we at theBulldog Bar believe alarms may not be the best home security when it comes to keeping burglars off our territory:

1) Alarm systems allow crooks up to one minute to find your alarm panel and disable it, once they've already gained access to your dwelling.
If you think 30-60 seconds is too little time to find your alarm panel, think again. Try timing yourself coming in the front door and running to your alarm panel. Chances are you will get there in 10 seconds or less. That leaves you at least 20 seconds to destroy the alarm panel (if you were a thief), and another 30 seconds to grab a few valuables and run...before authorities associated with your alarm company are even notified. Which brings us to our next point...

2) Security alarms don’t alert the police until after sirens have gone off for 60 seconds.
If a burglar however, is able to successfully destroy or disable your alarm system before that 60-second countdown is up, then the alarm will NOT call and alert the police AT ALL. What we're saying here is this... At this point, after the damage has been done, your security alarm is now rendered useless. 

3) The main point of entry for burglars during a heist is typically your front door.
Entryways like your front door are the main entrances people use when coming home... So upon being opened or simply kicked in, the alarm starts beeping and counting down for 30, 45 or 60 seconds giving someone ample time to walk to your keypad and disarm the alarm system. Unfortunately your security alarm can’t tell the difference between a burglar kicking in the door and you walking in as usual, so it treats the burglar just like you and waits 30 to 60 seconds before the alarm goes off. Scary, right?

If you're looking for a better way to reinforce door security at your humble abode with a powerful way of preventing your doors from being kicked in, check out how theBulldog Bar home security products can work for you: theBulldogBar.com .

Our effective devices work well in conjunction with other residential security options out there, and they're affordable too! Visit our web site today... to keep the "bad guys" from breaking in and being gone in 60 seconds (or less)!

C-S-I : 3 Ways You Can Feel Safe Again After a Home Burglary Incident

Being a recent victim of burglary can be traumatizing event for everyone at home to overcome... especially if someone was home during the time of the break-in.

Take it from the homeowners behind these 2 stories below-- It's a very scary experience:

"Yesterday we came home to discover that the window in our front door had been smashed and a thief had let himself into the house. The robber made off with two laptops, a watch, a spare set of keys, and a portable hard drive... We were lucky that he or she left many other things, including [important documents, identification] and financial papers."

"Our house was broken into yesterday in broad daylight while we were at work. How can we feel safe again?"

At theBulldog Bar we want to help all of you who have been struck by such frightening misfortune, by giving you 3 easy pieces of advice in order to feel safe again after what happened. Here's an easy way to remember it: C-S-I.

C-S-I in this case doesn't mean "Crime Scene Investigation," it's actually an acronym for...

C- Change Your Locks.
When it comes to changing your locks, look for products that include a deadbolt or a double-locking system. Adding in motion-sensor lighting near your entryways is also a helpful way to keep an eye on your doors and the unexpected visitors who may approach them in the future.

S- Secure windows on all floors of your house.
In many cases we neglect the windows which aren't situated on the ground level of our residences, but securing these small glass entrances can give everyone under your roof a greater peace of mind and an improved sense of security...especially if a family member is in the household alone.

I- Install powerful door security devices to prevent forced entry. High-quality home security products like theBulldog Bar can reinforce your front door, back door & sliding doors so they cannot be kicked in by crooks. theBulldog Bar is also affordable for families on a budget and it's easy-to-install on just about any of your entryways.

What's Up With That? theBulldog Bar 's List of Commonly Stolen Items

If you think you are invincible when it comes to home burglary in your neighborhood...think again. This kind of crime unfortunately happens worldwide, to just about any household!

Based on a recent news report from the UK, these are the 3 most commonly stolen items by burglars during a home burglary
(statistics based on reports from 2009-2010):

#1: Purses/Wallets/Money.
46% of burglaries resulted in the theft of a homeowner's purse, wallet or cash that was easily accessible. By keeping these things out of "plain sight..." household invaders may experience a more difficult time trying to take possession of your your most valuable items!

#2: Electronics & Digital Cameras.
36% of crooks on this side of the globe have allegedly been after the possession of your high-end electronics & big ticket digital cameras. What does this mean? Hide these items in a safe location, like your secured safe box (which is mounted to your floor) or in a place where thieves are less likely to look (such as a drawer in your bathroom or pantry shelf).

#3: Computers & Other Related Technological Equipment.
29% of reported stolen items involve computers and other accessories that accompany laptops, printers, etc. Be sure to conceal your technology as much as possible by keeping these items away from windows or visible locations like sliding doors or front door entryways.

If you're interested in reinforcing your door security at home, however, one investment to consider is a product like theBulldog Bar .

"Let Me Count the Ways..." 5 Ways Burglars Try to Breach Your Best Home Security Efforts

Having the most powerful door security at your house is just one of the many ways homeowners can prevent burglary . 

Based on recent news stories, theBulldog Bar found 5 ways crooks try to gain access to your dwelling... By being aware of thieves' common tactics, you should be able to better protect your residence in the future!

1. Doors and Windows
Believe it or not, most burglars technically don't have to "break in," since a surprising amount of people leave their doors and windows unlocked. In fact, checking for unlocked front, back, and sliding glass doors is first on every burglar's robbery list.
2. When Nobody is Home

A vacant home is a burglar's paradise, considering any and every point of entry is fair game. When on vacation, it's important to suspend newspaper delivery so your subscriptions don't pile up... and have a neighbor collect any packages that might be delivered while you're gone (because these are blatant giveaways that your domain is unoccupied).

3. Spare Keys

Another mistake many homeowners make is hiding spare keys in common areas. Hiding keys under doormats, above door trim, under potted plants, and in fake rocks makes burglary an easy job.

4. Don't Provide Tools
Not all burglars arrive on your property prepared for a break-in. In fact, many of them approach on foot to actually boost their chances of getting away. This simply means: Don't leave household tools like ladders or even shovels lying around...because these can easily be used to break into your domain.

5. Hiding Spots
Tall shrubbery surrounding a neighborhood "castle," especially thick bushes in front of windows, is the perfect camouflage for burglar's anticipated caper. With that being said, be sure to keep your shrubs trimmed and try not to grow them in front of or even next to entryways on your premises.

For even better reinforcement, consider installing high-quality home security devices like theBulldog Bar on all your doors. These products are not only affordable, but they come in a variety of colors and designs to match just about any interior decor.

All Good in the 'Hood: theBulldog Bar 's 3 Tips for a Safer Neighborhood

As a homeowner did you know...?

One of the easiest (and also one of the most common) crimes to prevent.  

That's why theBulldog Bar Squad is informing homeowners nationwide about what you (as well as your fellow neighbors) can do to have the best home security tactics in your community...with these 3 easy tips:

a) Get to Know your Neighbors.
Sometimes the best home security tactic of all is living among neighbors who look out for one another. Make it a point to familiarize yourself with those who reside around you. By doing so, you can eventually become comfortable enough to ask these acquaintances to keep an eye on your house when you're not around. Typical activities like kids playing in your cul de sac , couples doing yard work or families engaging in a leisurely stroll up and down the streets can sometimes deter a burglar from stopping in your area to find a potential break-in target.

b) Create barriers to ward off "the bad guys."
What we mean by this is...Use the landscaping around your territory to your advantage, specifically when it comes to the greenery near your windows and doors. If you are planting bushes and shrubs yourself, try using thorny plants like roses and holly... these make it more difficult for burglars to hide or intrude into your residence, because they are more likely to stay away from these difficult-to-endure barriers.

c) Attach an alarm to all your windows, in conjunction with interior door security locks that can easily be opened in case of an emergency. Although a loud-sounding alarm is still not a 100% guarantee that burglars won't come crashing into your dwelling... You may also want to consider the use of glass-breaking sensors on your windows, which sets off a loud alarm whenever a window or a glass door is being broken. Some security sensor models can even detect shock waves that will set off an alarm when front doors are kicked in. 

In addition to noisy window alarms, investing in high-quality home security devices like theBulldog Bar are affordable, easy to install and can be dismantled easily from the inside in case a quick exit by a family member is necessary.

So in summary, implementing these 3 "safe neighborhood" tips can turn anyone's humble abode from a vulnerable burglary target into a well-protected domain against crooks...especially when your doors CANNOT be kicked in (34% of burglaries occur from an invader kicking in a front or back door).

Locks of Love: theBulldog Bar 's 4 Tips for Better Door Security

Somewhere around the country there is a burglary committed every 15 seconds. 

If this were to unfortunately happen to your humble abode, it could leave a major impact on you and your family's sense of security.

That's why theBulldog Bar Squad recommends these 4 anti-burglary tips for homeowners nationwide to take note of. 

By staying proactive your residence can remain safe from the

Anti-Burglary Tip #1:  "The lights are on, but no one's home" is a good thing!
The first thing a burglar looks for when choosing a house for a break-in is the one with no one in it. So if you leave your house, make it look occupied. An automatic light timer system could also help throughout your domain...because they would turn on and off just like every day normal activity on the inside.

Anti-Burglary Tip #2:  It can be easy to make it hard (for a thief to gain access to your castle).
Another thing potential invaders think about before committing their crime is whether there is easy access into and out of their victims' dwelling (think deadbolt locks, bright lights & noisy pets!). The more difficult it is for them to attempt a caper, the more they will realize your territory just may not a very good target to pursue.

Anti-Burglary Tip #3: Leave the game of "hide-and-seek" for the kids to play, and not burglars.
These "bad guys" can hide behind trees and shrubs or anything that will temporarily conceal them (so trim your greenery regularly). The use of security lighting with motion sensors around your domicile can also cut down all prospective hiding areas, and also give you a sense awareness if someone is creeping around.

Anti-Burglary Tip #4: Take advantage of the best home security products on the market today... like theBulldog Bar .

Our easy-to-install door security device simply goes behind any solid core or metal door to keep them from being kicked in. With theBulldog Bar in place, you are sure to have a significant peace of mind when you are away or in your bedroom asleep.

"Live Action!" Why Action Plans Can Improve Home Security

When a police department in a certain community or neighborhood receives several tips or calls on a recent rash of break-ins, robberies or burglaries... authorities respond by devising an immediate action plan to deal with those incidents in order to snuff them out right away.

In other words:

Reported Criminal Activity + Executing an Action Plan = A Safe, Effective Resolution. 

Whether it's dispatching a team of police to the scene just seconds after a report is called in or even requesting assistance from other local agencies & law officials, members of each department know exactly what to do "in case of emergency" to provide the most ideal solution to a problem.

Standard action plans are everywhere-- For emergency responders they exist internationally, mainly because the methodology is pretty much the same among law enforcement operations.

At theBulldog Bar we believe homeowners should take the same approach to achieve the best home security for you and your loved ones.

By organizing a specific strategy to carry out in emergency situations (such as suspicious neighborhood activity, an attempted break-in or even an actual burglary), everyone can be on the same page about what to do immediately, and how to do it safely.

Here's a sample action plan your family can implement under your roof:

-- Designate a special "hiding spot" in your household where family members can go in the event of an criminal invasion. If a burglar kicks in your door while you are somewhere in the house (but not visible to the intruder), resort to your "hiding spot" quietly and quickly call police for help.

-- Make sure everyone has an "emergency phone" (this can be a landline or a mobile device) within arm's reach...especially during late night hours or when children/teens are home alone. A phone on your nightstand can also be helpful if something were to happen while you were sleeping, so you can dial 9-1-1 instantly.

-- If someone is breaking into a dwelling in your neighborhood and you are off the premises (but close enough to see what is happening) re-locate to a safer area nearby, whether it's pulling into someone's driveway briefly or actually dropping in at a neighbor's house. Promptly contact authorities about what you witnessed, but only after you are out of harm's way.

Yes, it can be that simple... Create an action plan, inform everyone who lives with you about that plan, and execute it if necessary.

While door security locks , surveillance cameras and alarm systems can serve as great home burglary prevention tools... a strategic plan of action can provide a safe solution for your family, should your household privacy be compromised by a crook.

theBulldog Bar : 4 Types of De-Fence Against Home Burglars

How good is your residential de-fence against potential break-ins?

As homeowners most of us build fences or put up walls or greenery on our property for:

- enclosing our backyard

- creating a division between our neighbors

- preventing erosion

But did you know... The type of fencing, hedging or walls around your property can either attract or deter thieves, depending on the how they're made or where they're located in relation to your house.

At theBulldog Bar we want to make sure homeowners know the 4 important things to check for in order to make your dwelling less attractive to invaders in your community:

1) Check for weak spots in your fences/walls/gates where a thief could get easily gain access.
For example, a low sagging fence or a back gate with a weak lock could make it much easier for a neighborhood prowler to sneak into your backyard or the side of your home, and eventually into your humble abode.

2) Make sure your landscaping is regularly maintained outside your residence...especially the greenery in front of your windows and around your doorways.
A thorny hedge around your home can put thieves off, but make sure passersby (as well as your nearby neighbors) can still see the front of your home so a burglar can’t go unnoticed if they are creeping around your house.

3) Consider laying gravel in your driveway and in other walkways around your property.
Burglars don’t like to risk trespassing when it comes to this type of terrain... because it’s noisy to walk on, and could potentially "blow their cover."

4) Install powerful door security locks on all your entryways to keep them from being kicked in.
Statistics show that 3 out of every 10 burglarized households are broken into via door or window access. Products like theBulldog Bar 's amazing, high-quality home security devices can add the extra protection you need to your home. 

theBulldog Bar is not only easy-to-install, it's also affordable and comes in a variety of designs & colors to match your interior decor.

Let There Be Light: theBulldog Bar 's 3 Powerful Weapons Against Home Burglars

Each year there are 5 million homes in the U.S. that are burglarized, and 9 out of ten of these incidents could have easily been prevented by using a few simple steps. 

These steps can definitely help your domain appear much less enticing to potential invaders...so theBulldog Bar Squad recommends that every homeowner try to have these powerful weapons on your side: light, time and noise.

LIGHT:
Make sure your outside security lighting is out of reach, so neighborhood prowlers can't reach for and disable them. You may also want to consider installing a motion-sensitive security light with extra luminosity. New technology has made it relatively cheaper to purchase these types of bulbs for just about any use.
Don't forget to implement variable timers inside your home as well, to simulate homeowner presence even when you are away.

TIME:
Stalling a crook outside your door can make it more difficult for them to break into your home.
This can be done by installing deadbolt locks in addition to the best door security locks of them all... theBulldog Bar . Placing theBulldog Bar on you main doors can ensure they won't be kicked-in by lurking criminals.For even better protection, invest in additional locks for all your windows and patio doors too.

NOISE:
For reliable security as well as unconditional companionship, it won't hurt you to get a dog. Man's Best Friend, however, doesn't have to be a large attack dog... because even a small pup can create enough of a disturbance that burglars will try to avoid your property entirely.

If you have extra cash and want to have the best home security in place at your residence... an alarm system can be helpful, but won't necessary provide the type of main door security like theBulldog Bar devices can.

8 is Enough: theBulldog Bar 's 8 Tricks Burglars Don't Want You to Know

As a homeowner there are simple things you can do to make burglars want to steal from some place else. How do we at theBulldog Bar know this? 

Because a recent CBS news story, featuring convicted burglars in jail from across the country, revealed these top eight tricks crooks commonly used in order to break into their victims' houses.

By being mindful of these 8 things, you may be able to prepare and equip your home with the best home security measures possible, based on what to do (and what NOT to do)!

1) Thieves who steal from homes look for much more than piled up newspapers at your front door.Burglars reportedly say they try to blend in before they break in, by using tactics like pretending to be someone working in your neighborhood or for a local business in the community.

2) Chances are they'll either ring a doorbell or knock to see if you're home.
When burglars are disguised as servicemen or someone coming soliciting landscaping/roofing business, they have no problem approaching your doorstep in broad daylight to see if anyone is on the property. If your house is empty, they

3) Noise can actually be a great deterrent for neighborhood prowlers.
According burglars serving time in jail, if you're smart, you'd leave your TV on with the volume up loud before leaving the house-- even if you're only just going to be away for a few minutes.

4) Dogs make a great alert system for homeowners, and are perfect for warding off a potential household intruder.In recent interviews burglars behind bars admitted that they can generally be scared away by barking dogs and even nosy neighbors.

5) Sometimes criminals hoping to break into your "castle" don't even need a key to your home.
In many cases, these unlawful acts have been committed because of negligence by homeowners to secure their doors & windows.

6) Home Security Alarms (with exterior keypads) are not always reliable.
CBS reports that burglars apparently love it when your security panel is on the outside of your house, because that way they can steal your individual pin code. Yes this means, in many cases, potential thieves are watching you and your territory closely before they actually try to access your domicile!

7) The majority of items trespassers remove during a heist aren't those things tucked away in special hiding spots.
That's because when these lawbreakers find their way in 9 times out of 10... your valuables are waiting for them in an obvious location of the house. 

8) Crimes like burglary & robbery are committed rain or shine...and mostly during the daytime.One sergeant from a California Sheriff's Department explains that inclement weather doesn't stop burglars and time of day doesn't stop them from carrying out a caper like home burglary. If these "bad guys" see any kind of opportunity, they take it.

So there you have it. 8 little things about burglars that could make a BIG difference in whether your household is victimized by pilferers hoping to get their grubby paws on your valuables.

With that in mind, theBulldog Bar Squad recommends looking into better front door security strategies as well as high-quality devices that can protect your home more effectively.

After all, isn't 8 enough... when it comes to reasons why you should invest in powerful door security at home ? We concur.

Making the C-A-L-L: theBulldog Bar 's 4 Actions You Can Take Against Burglars

It's scary but true... break-ins can result in more than just your home being invaded and/or your valuables being taken in some extreme cases.

Burglars can even go as far as commiiting rape, robbery and assault if they are surprised by someone coming home or force entry into a home that is unexpectedly occupied by one or more people during the time of the attempted crime.

That's why theBulldog Bar Squad has come up with an easy way to remember 4 important actions you can take against burglars, if you or someone close to you becomes a victim.

The acronym is C-A-L-L...and by "making the call," you can better protect your domain, valuables & loved ones by remembering these simple tips:

C-- Contact authorities immediately if you arrive at your home and something looks the least bit suspicious.

If something looks questionable, a slit screen, a broken window or an open door, don't go in. Call the police from a neighbor's house or your cell phone.

A-- Arm yourself accordingly, with proper training.

Guns are responsible for many accidental deaths in the home every year. If you choose to own this type of defense, learn how to store it and use it safely. Otherwise, look into other options that will improve your door security without the need for extensive training and extra caution. Devices like theBulldog Bar can make it much easier to implement the best home security for your front doors & other entryways to your residence.

L-- Leave as quickly as possible at the first sign of someone attempting to gain access into your dwelling.
In the evenings, especially during late/middle-of-the-night hours, if you think you hear someone breaking in...leave safely if you can. Then call the police as soon as you are completely off your property. 

L-- Lock yourself in a room with a phone if you can't escape during an alleged burglary.

If someone invades your house while you are home and there's no way for you to leave, quietly lock yourself in a room with a phone and call the police. If an intruder enters your room, pretend you are asleep, and contact authorities immediately when it's safe to reach for you phone.

While it may be difficult to discuss worst case scenarios when discussing the topic of home burglary, it's imperative to be aware of what could happen, so you and your family can react properly and safely.

For additional ways of improving door security at your humble abode, check out theBulldog Bar 's products. They're not only affordable, but they're easy to install and are sure to keep your doors (as well as other entrances into your house) from being kicked in by potentially violent or aggressive intruders.
