We all know that crime statistics are constantly on the rise and we all know that in England, at least, we are not allowed to attack an intruder on our property with a weapon. So, how do we stay safe in our own homes? What sort of security devices do you have fitted? Do you have an alarm, a door chain, security lights, or some other product? How secure is your home?

Yes, plus I noticed that you have the added security of the gates across the bottom of the drive, which must help. Don't forget too, that you have the added security of a little fella that barks at the passers by. lol. Thank you for your response, my dear friend and Brightest Blessings.

my home is secured with an alarm. i know some police advise people not to open doors or answer calls after 4 pm for safety purposes. always keep windows, doors locked. i don't think it's safe to leave them open nowadays.

You seem to be pretty secure in your home, MLGB. But, as for not answering calls after 4 p.m., I think that might drive me just a little crazy! Thank you for your response my friend and Brightest Blessings.
