We are nearing the festival month and as we do we each year many of us have already started making holiday plans to travel with their families to upcountry, the sunny coast, Mombasa and to different parts of Kenya for the festivities. It can be quite a challenge to go away for an extended amount of time and not worry about the security of your home. By taking security precautions before leaving, you gain peace of mind and improved home security. 
Here are 5 tips to prepare your home’s security for that upcoming vacation. 

1.      Ask a friend to keep an eye on your home
The key objective of this is to continue to make the home appear occupied. If you don’t plan to have someone stay in your home while you are gone, it is a good idea to have someone stop by at least once a day or minimally ask your neighbors to keep an eye out.

2.      Install a home security system
Installing a home security systems in Kenya provides you peace of mind with 24/7 monitoring and alerting the police to any security breaches. Plus, alarm systems Kenya deter potential intruders from entering your home. Additionally, CCTV cameras in Kenya, offer an option of mobile video surveillance. From your phone, you can remotely watch over your home for any movements or changes.

 
3.   Don’t post vacation plans on social media
Even though you are excited for your upcoming vacation, it’s safest to share your experience after you’re back. If you post about your upcoming trip, you’re sharing that your home will be vacant in the upcoming weeks on public networks, which is a security risk. Also, refrain from posting photos during your getaway, no matter how beautiful, until you return home. Giving away your current status is another security risk for your potentially vacant home.

4.      Make sure you lock up
It may seem obvious, but make sure you lock all windows and doors. With the home being fully locked, it becomes less attractive as a target to intruders who are looking for a quick entry point. Double check your windows and doors upon your departure.

5.    Protect your vehicle
If you are leaving on an extended vacation and not planning to travel with your car, you can park it at the airport or elsewhere, but ensure it is in a secure location. Thousands of cars are stolen everyday throughout Kenya, particularly new cars. My advice to car owners is to consider contacting one of the vehicle tracking companies in Kenya to install a GPS tracker to ensure maximum security for your car when you are on holiday.
