They're a step up from traditional locks and give you the ability to remotely control your locks from anywhere through a mobile App. 2. Secure windows:Burglars often target first-floor windows for entry. Counter their efforts by equipping all of your windows with secure window locks. For added security, install window sensors (传感器) that will alert you whenever a window is opened or if it detects broken glass. 3. Make doors stronger:Solid doors made from metal wood are your best bet. Make your door frames stronger with a thin covering of steel to make it harder for burglars to split the wood. This metal casing(金属外壳) will also house the strike plate and make it more difficult for potential burglars to force the door open.
