How Can I Keep My Garage More Secure?
Q: How can I keep my garage more secure?
A: The safety and security of your family is the most important factor of your home. Here are some quick tips to make sure your garage is as secure as it can be!
Keep your garage door closed whenever you’re not in your garage (you'd be surprised by how easy it is to forget to close the door or accidentally set off the sensor that stops the door from closing).
Upgrade your garage door opener / operator. Carrying around an actual remote opener you keep in your car can make it easier for thieves to break into your home. Advances in technology now allow you to use an app on your smartphone to open your garage door.
Have a deadbolt installed on the door that is in between the house and garage. Adding a deadbolt will provide a secondary security measure.
Choose a garage door with frosted or dark glass windows. This will let the light in your garage, while making it hard to see what is actually in the garage from the outside.
Have a new garage door installed. If you current door is older, outdated, or has been damaged in some way, it's not as secure as it could be. Select a quality garage door made of strong materials to help reduce the risks of break-ins.
