Here are some home security tips you should know: 1. Install quality locks:A good lock can make all the difference in your home's security. Install high-quality locks on all doors to prevent burglars(人室窃贼) from being able to kick down your door. Consider smart locks as a great, secure option. 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. Enhance the security of your door further by adding a doorbell camera. This device will let you know any activity at your front door and allow you to view who's there, even if you're away from home. It will also discourage potential criminals from targeting your home. 36. One advantage of smart locks over traditional ones is that _.
