Summer Safety Tips To Safeguard Your San Bernadino Home And Family

Summer is a time for vacations, warm weather, and creating lasting moments with family and friends. While you deserve to head out and enjoy life, you also should take action to secure those precious moments. Check out our helpful summer safety tips and see how an advanced security system can help safeguard your family and your San Bernadino home. Don’t allow a security lapse to spoil your good times!

Keep Doors And Windows Secure In Your San Bernadino Home

You love the summer breeze drifting through your windows in the evenings. Just be sure to close and secure them whenever you depart! Your high-tech alarm system can help by telling you if an entry isn’t secure. If you proceed to activate your alarm, but inadvertently leave a door or window open, your system will inform you of the security lapse. You can have warnings sent through your smartphone’s home security app regardless of your location.

Maintain Protection When You’re On Vacation

Countless families vacation in the summer, leaving houses empty for extended times. A smart home security system with online accessibility will keep you in touch, allowing you to see live surveillance camera footage or stored clips through your smartphone. You can also program smart lights to turn on at seemingly random times to make your house look occupied. If something happens, your system will alert you and your monitoring team right away.

Here are several other safety tips when travelling:

  • Avoid broadcasting your holiday on online platforms. Even when publishing privately, you don’t really know who will view the content. Instead, post pictures of your travels once you get back.
  • Invite a neighbor to keep an eye on things and alert you if something suspicious arises.
  • Ensure outdoor lights are set on a timer and turn on at night and think about installing motion-detecting options.

Protect Those Precious Moments With These Additional Summertime Safety Tips

Securing your home is crucial, but you also need to protect yourself and your loved ones during your time outdoors. You can do so by abiding by these summertime safety tips:

  • Supervise little ones around pools, busy streets, grills, and fireworks
  • Protect your skin by using sunscreen and reapply often, particularly when swimming
  • Have someone in your household get trained in CPR
  • Always swim with a friend
  • Wear helmets when riding bikes, and life jackets when on boats
  • Be able to recognize poisonous plants and educate loved ones
  • Always let someone know where you plan to go
  • Maintain enclosures around swimming pools and lock gates when not in use

Swimming pools are one of the pleasures of summer, but they also are a well-documented risk. Think about using smart locks on pool gates to elevate safety and security.
