Home Security Checklist - Outside Your Home
Home Security Coach


You play the largest part in your home security. The Home Security Coach has put together a series of checklists covering each area of your home. Use these small guides to get started on increasing the security of your home one step at a time. This Home Security Checklist will cover outside of your home. We will talk about the home security of the home itself including locks and windows during our next checklist.

Outdoor Home Security

Are shrubs and bushes trimmed so there isn't a place for someone to hide around your home?

Is the exterior of your home fully lit with no dark spots for someone to hide while breaching the security of your home? Lighting plays a large part in increasing your home security.

Are outdoor lights around your home on in the evening regardless if someone is home?

Have you installed motion detector lights or security lights?

Does your home appear to be a hard security target or a home that could easily be broken into?

Have you walked around your home as if you were a burglar looking for weak spots in your home security? Take a walk around your home today looking for places your home security is weak.

Is your home number clearly visible from the road for Police and EMS personnel to find your home in an emergency?

The next home security checklist will cover the exterior of your home and how to increase your security.
