window treatment

Install effective window treatments — especially on rooms where there is expensive equipment. Thin, sheer drapes — although attractive — also allow burglars to look inside. You may be surprised at how often a home intruder will walk up and look through the windows of a home to see if there is anything worth stealing. Sheer curtains allow the burglar to know this before ever breaking in. Get into the habit of closing drapes and blinds not to reduce the chances of your home being targeted by a burglar. Without the ability to see into the home, there are less guaranteed results for a burglar, which helps to serve as a deterrent.
