This is true if you live in a smaller city, a larger one, a safe neighborhood, or just live in a high-crime area or near a busy street. Investing in safety and maintenance or repairs will not only protect your home (while adding value) but, most importantly, it&#8217;ll help protect your family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Deciding what upgrades and safety measures to install will be defined by many different factors, like where you live, whether you live in a rural area or in the city, and what kind of improvements you can make (if any are needed), as far as lighting and alarm systems or maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let&#8217;s dive in and explore this a bit further, and see what simple suggestions a homeowner should be looking into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-garage-door\"><strong>The Garage Door<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Security:<\/strong> Often, your garage door has adequate security, but if you&#8217;re keeping expensive cars or equipment in there, you may want to add additional security (like cameras or smart tech).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Maintenance: <\/strong>Your garage door has a lot of moving parts, and sometimes these mechanisms are not maintained as well as they should be.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apart from &#8216;traditional&#8217; security, there are other factors to think about. Here&#8217;s a quick example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you live in a place like Dauphin County (Pennsylvania), the climate tends to be humid and hot in summer, but it can drop to below zero with strong winds in the winter. With the harsh weather, things can get a lot of wear and tear. Most will be relatively easy for a DIY minded person, but if the main spring is damaged (like you have a bounce in the door), don&#8217;t try to fix that yourself.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those springs carry a heavy load, and you probably won&#8217;t have the right equipment. In fact, it could be straight-up dangerous because these springs can often be under pressure, meaning if you aren&#8217;t careful, you could have a projectile flying towards you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this situation, if you&#8217;ve got any damage to your garage door, please call on a <a href=\"https:\/\/shankdoor.com\/garage-door-repair-service\/dauphin-county-pa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">garage door service Dauphin County (PA<\/a>) residents would rely upon to handle the big stuff. The repair will set you back anywhere from $150 to $2000 (USD), depending on what&#8217;s wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you live in a larger county such as Maricopa (Phoenix), you&#8217;ll find repair prices are about 20% higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This probably has to do with market scale and service drivers. Smaller locations, such as Dauphin County, will also be more inclined towards repairing, while bigger locations will go for full replacement. This is because in smaller counties, you&#8217;ll more likely encounter permit checks for replacement parts, while in AZ, municipalities allow like-for-like replacements without permits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are so many things to think about that it&#8217;s really best just to call a local garage door business and check.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Pro Tip: <\/em><\/strong><em>You should set up a time every year. Maybe every six months, check your garage doors. This is an idea because you can make sure everything is working properly. You should check how old each part of the door is, like the spring or the wrench, because old things can break easily.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-smart-tech\"><strong>Smart Tech<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Detectors have changed a lot over the years.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now we have detectors that can send a message to our phone if something is wrong. This can really lower the risk of someone being caught in a house fire or passing out from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.state.mn.us\/communities\/environment\/air\/toxins\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">carbon monoxide poisoning<\/a> (which can be a silent killer due to the lack of smell).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Pro Tip: <\/em><\/strong><em>You should really check your smoke detectors every month to make sure they are working properly. It is also an idea to replace the batteries in your smoke detectors every year. If you want to be extra safe, you might want to consider getting connected alarms that will cover your whole home. This way, you can have smoke detectors that will work together to keep you safe.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-install-security-cameras-and-outdoor-lighting\"><strong>Install Security Cameras and Outdoor Lighting.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Security cameras that are visible, motion-censored lighting, and doorbells that&#8217;ll trigger an alarm on your phone will not only prevent people from targeting your home, but they also let you know when someone approaches.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new, popular camera doorbells will send you a message and allow you to talk to delivery drivers or to shout at someone who might be trying to break in.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Handy dandy little modern tools to <a href=\"http:\/\/lovehappensmag.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">keep your property and family safe<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Pro Tip: <\/em><\/strong><em>Select cameras equipped with night vision and motion sensors, and set up soft but extensive lighting around points of entry, including doorways, garage areas, and backyards.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bykoket.com\/index\/product\/?id=529&amp;product=Nudesse-Chair&amp;utm_source=LH_Blog_article&amp;utm_medium=banner_article&amp;utm_content=nudesse_chair\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/banners\/banner-lh-nudesse-chair-750.jpg\" alt=\"Nudesse chair by KOKET\" style=\"width:500px\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-protect-windows-and-doors-with-strong-hardware\"><strong>Protect Windows and Doors with Strong Hardware<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Windows and doors can be weak spots in the home. Be sure to use strong hardware, alarms, and double-paned glass against unwanted &#8216;guests&#8217;, but also to protect against ice storms and wind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-home-emergency-kit\"><strong>Home Emergency Kit<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep an emergency supply bag in a closet with water, food, first aid supplies, flashlights, and batteries.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should also have a plan that you discuss with the family so everyone knows what to do. It&#8217;s also a good idea to practice escape routes out of the home in case doors are blocked by smoke, fire, or intruders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Pro Tip:<\/em><\/strong><em> You should check what you have in your emergency kit every six months.
