Summer is a time for pleasant weather, vacations, and making memories with friends and family. While you should venture out and enjoy life, you should also take action to secure those cherished moments. Review our simple summer safety tips and learn how a modern security system can help defend your Dover home and your loved ones. Don’t let security lapses dampen your enjoyment!

Keep Windows And Doors Secure In Your Dover Home

Nothing compares to the summer breeze flowing through your windows at night. Just be sure to close and secure them whenever you leave! Your modern alarm system can help by notifying you if an entry is open. If you proceed to arm your property, but accidentally leave a window or door open, your system will notify you of the security breach. You can get alerts through your cell phone’s home security app no matter where you are.

Maintain Protection When You’re Traveling

Many families holiday during the summertime, leaving residences unoccupied for many days. A smart security system with online accessibility will keep you connected, letting you watch real-time camera streams or recorded files through your smartphone. You might also set smart lights to switch on at certain times to make your house look occupied. If an urgent situation occurs, your system will notify you and your monitoring team immediately.

Here are several other safety tips when going on vacation:

• Avoid broadcasting your trip on online platforms. Even if you publish to a private group, you can’t be certain who will access the details. Instead, display pics of your travels when you return.
• Ask a neighbor to watch over things and let you know if anything suspicious occurs.
• Ensure exterior lights are set on a timer and turn on after dark and think about using motion-detecting lighting.

Enjoy Yourself With These Additional Summertime Safety Tips

Protecting your home is crucial, but you also need to protect yourself and your family members when enjoying time outdoors. You can do so by adhering to these summertime safety tips:

• Monitor kids around pools, hot grills, fireworks, and busy streets
• Safeguard your skin by applying sunscreen and reapply regularly, especially when swimming
• Have a person in your family get trained in CPR
• Always go swimming with a friend
• Wear helmets when cycling, and life jackets when on boats
• Be able to recognize dangerous plants and educate kids
• Always let someone know where you plan to go
• Maintain fences around pools and secure gates when they’re not in use

Pools are one of the delights of the summer season, but they also are a recognized hazard. Think about implementing smart locks on pool gates to elevate security and safety.
