Summer Safety Tips To Shield Your Lawrence Home And Family

Summer is known for outdoor adventures, pleasant weather, and creating lasting moments with friends and family. While you should head out and enjoy life, you also should take precautions to preserve those valued moments. Check out our beneficial summer safety tips and discover how a modern security system can help defend your family members and your Lawrence home. Don’t let lapses in security ruin your fun in the sun!

Keep Windows And Doors Secure In Your Lawrence Home

There’s nothing like the summer breeze flowing through your windows at night. Just remember to shut and secure them if you go out! Your modern alarm system can help by letting you know if an entry is open. If you attempt to activate your alarm, but accidentally leave a window or door open, your system will alert you of the oversight. You can have warnings delivered through your cell phone’s home security app regardless of where you are.

Maintain Protection When You’re Away

Many families vacation during the summer, leaving homes unoccupied for days or weeks at a time. A smart home security system with online accessibility will keep you informed, permitting you to see live surveillance footage or stored events through your smartphone. You may also configure smart lights to switch on at seemingly random times to make your residence seem occupied. If something occurs, your system will alert you and your monitoring specialists immediately.

Here are a few other safety tips when leaving home:

  • Never broadcast your travels on social media. Even if you publish to a private group, you don’t really know who will see the details. Alternatively, display photos of your trip once you get back.
  • Ask a neighbor to watch over things and let you know if something suspicious takes place.
  • Make sure exterior lights are illuminated at night and consider using motion-detecting lights.

Protect Those Precious Moments With These Additional Summertime Safety Tips

Safeguarding your home is crucial, but you also must protect yourself and your family during summer’s many outdoor activities. You can do so by abiding by these summertime safety tips:

  • Monitor kids around fireworks, grills, pools, and busy streets
  • Protect your skin with sunscreen and reapply regularly, particularly when swimming
  • Have a person in your home get trained in CPR
  • Always swim with a buddy
  • Don life jackets when on boats and helmets when cycling
  • Be able to recognize harmful plants and inform kids
  • Always tell somebody what you’re doing
  • Maintain enclosures around pools and secure gates when you’re not using them

Pools are one of the joys of summer, but they also are a well-known risk. Think about installing smart locks on pool gates to elevate security and safety.
