A statistics chart shows that from reports by the National Crime Records Bureau, there are approximately 2,222,196 burglaries or thefts that occur annually in India. That’s over 6,000 home robberies a day. You can learn a lot about home security from this information.

• 28 percent of burglaries involve people at home.
• Nearly 1 in 3 Indians have already been the victim of a crime.
• 79 percent of burglars use a first floor window or door to enter a residence.
• Burglaries of residential properties accounted for 72.6 percent of all burglary offenses.

As a whole of all burglaries:

• 61.0 percent involved forcible entry,
• 32.6 percent were unlawful entries (without force),
• The remainder (6.5 percent) was forcible entry attempts.

Now, what can you do to prevent yourself from being one of those 6,000 people a day that fall victim to a home robbery? Have you ever lay in bed and tried to remember if you locked the front door on your way in or if you ever got the spare key back from the house sitter when you went on vacation?

Fingerprint door locks are an easy step to take to prevent home invasions and add home security. With fingerprint door locks, it will always lock right behind you and you don’t have to worry about who had the spare key last. Best of all, the entrance into your home is only one touch away, which means no hassling with keys. The convenience of deleting users is quick and easy too. Keeping the doors locked and secured gives your home an extra boost of security and means you’re not taking steps to ensure your home and family do not fall victim of a home invasion. Remember, 32.6 percent of the 2,222,196 annually burglaries were “without forced” entries, meaning one way or another, the burglar had gained access to a key.

Apart from the fingerprint doorlock it is always advisable to install a total integrated security solution to further strengthen your security by many fold. Security surveillance cameras, motion detectors and alarms can be installed at home to provide you and your family the complete feel of being safe and secured.
