Handle your keys carefully. Don't carry house keys on a key ring
bearing your home address or leave house keys with your car in a
commercial parking lot. Don't hide your keys in "secret" places
outside your home - burglars usually know where to look.
Remember special vacation tips. This is a clear giveaway that the
owners are not home. When going on vacation, leave blinds open in
their usual position. Have mail and packages picked up, forwarded or

Are any of your valuables - such as a painting, a silver collection or an
antique chair-easy to see from outside? Rearranging your furnishings
might be advisable if it serves to make your homeless inviting to
criminals! Incidentally, should you ever need to report a burglary or
file an insurance claim, a household inventory - a listing of your
furniture and major personal belongings - could be a valuable

Surveillance
The purpose of surveillance is to identify a potential target based on
the security precautions that individual takes, and the most suitable
time, location, and method of attack. Surveillance may last for days or
weeks. Naturally, the surveillance of a person who has set routines
and who takes few precautions will take less time.

Personal Security--At Home, On the Street, While Traveling
Released by the Bureau of Diplomatic Security
Introduction
For Americans living overseas, the most serious obstacle to personal
safety is an attitude of complacency or fatalism. �It can�t happen to
me� and �if it�s going to happen, it�s going to happen� is dangerous
thinking.
Recent political events throughout the world have changed--but not
necessarily diminished--the threats you face. Today, the most
prevalent threat you face overseas is crime.

consumer reports of home alarm systems

The mere sight of a sturdy door outfitted with a dead-bolt lock might
be enough to make an intruder walk away in search of an easier
target. And that's precisely the impression you want to make with all
of your home's entry doors�not just the front door, but service
doors from the garage, French doors, old cellar and coal-chute
doors, and doors to three-season porchesl. Just as important as the
door and its lock are an entry's other components�the door frame,
nearby windows, and the surrounding walls. One weak spot might
be all a thief needs to gain entry.

Finally, burglar-proof your automatic garage-door opener. The

gain access.

Make sure your garage door is solid and in good repair, with no

climb through without opening the door.
Treat your garage's access doors, windows, and the interior door
that leads to your house as any other vulnerable point of entry.

To a burglar, your garage is a triple treat. It's probably home to
bikes, lawn equipment, and tools he can easily move and fence. It's
usually unoccupied, so he can break in with less risk of detection.
And if it's an attached garage, it gives him a concealed entry point to
the rest of your house.

Another vulnerable component of out-swinging doors is the door
jamb. Unlike doors that open to the inside, there's no stop along the
jamb to protect the door's latch or bolt from a pry bar or a hacksaw
blade. To protect the lock, install a metal guard secured to the
outside of the door with one-way screws or other hard-to-remove
fasteners.

Secure the other door with sliding bar or barrel bolts at both top and
bottom.
Burglars like out-swinging entry doors because they have exposed
hinge pins: No matter how strong the lock, they can simply pull out
the hinge pins and work the door away from its frame. You can
derail their plans by installing a steel door pin adjacent to each hinge.
When the door is closed, the protruding pins mate into their own
"strike plates" to prevent the door from being pried out even with the
hinge pins removed.

Heavy-duty keyed locks mount with "one-way" screws on the inside
edge of the inner frame (at either the top or bottom). To secure the
door when it's partially open for ventilation or pet access, drill a
series of holes for the lock's bolt at intervals along the upper frame.

To prevent a burglar from forcing open a sliding glass door, insert a
steel pin into a hole you've drilled through the inside door frame and
partway into the outside frame. Be sure to drill at least 5/8 inch away
from the glass so you'll clear any glass that extends into the frame.
For still more protection, place the proverbial broomstick handle in
the lower inside track.

Some thieves will try to lift sliding glass doors right out of their tracks
to gain entry. To keep that from happening, insert strong metal
spacer plates between the doors and their top tracks. To install them,
with the sliding door open, screw two plates per door into the top
track where you've pre-drilled pilot holes.

Stifle Break-in Opportunities
Your home might have one or more entry doors that you can't easily
secure with a standard dead-bolt lock. Sliding glass doors that lead
to a deck or patio, double doors, doors that open to the outside, and
the often-overlooked garage door are all potential points of entry that
need special protection.

Replacing Hinge Screws
A solid-core door fitted with a dead-bolt lock and a high-security
strike plate should stand up to all the kicking and ramming most
thieves are likely to dish out. Unless, that is, the door's hinges aren't
secure. You can strengthen them by replacing the standard
attachment screws with longer ones at least 2 inches long for the
screws that go into the door and at least 3 inches long for the ones in
the frame. Make sure the frame screws are long enough to seat firmly
in the wall stud behind the frame jamb.

If you detect signs of wood rot in any frame members, especially
around the lock, replace the framework.
High-Security Strike Plates
Standard strike plates are no match for a thief's repeated kicks.
When you install new dead-bolt locks, replace your strike plates with
high-security models. Not only do they come with extra-long 3-inch
wood screws that anchor deep in the frame, but they also have steel
rods welded to the back of the plate that go all the way into the wall
stud for extra reinforcement.

Check the gap between the door and frame. If it's more than 1/16 of
an inch or if the door gives when pushed or moves from side to side
when pried, your door frame could use some reinforcement. Gaps
and play give an intruder room to slip in a pry bar and work the door
open.
To reinforce the frame, carefully remove the interior molding and nail
wood spacer blocks at several points between the wall stud and the
door frame and especially adjacent to the strike plate and where
hinges attach

Beefing Up Doors
Good dead-bolt locks are vital to the security of your entry doors,
but they won't deliver all the protection they're capable of if the rest
of your door's components aren't up to snuff. An ill-fitting or rotted
door frame, door windows or side lights with ordinary glazing, and
standard hinge and strike-plate hardware are all weak links but
fortunately they're ones you can easily strengthen.
Reinforcing Frames
Even a steel-clad door with a dead-bolt lock won't deter an intruder
if it's mounted in an ill-fitting or flimsy door frame.

When these perimeter sensors and interior motion detectors are part
of a stand-alone system, the siren and flashing lights are the only
deterrents for discouraging the intruder and thwarting the break-in. In
a monitored system, operators at the system manufacturer's central
station also notify the police.

In addition to perimeter sensors, many systems also include motion
detectors that monitor large areas inside the house. When something
moves within the detector's range, a sensor sounds the siren. The
most sophisticated motion detectors are able to distinguish between
the threat of an intruder and the nocturnal wanderings of the family
pet, reducing the possibility of false alarms.

Sensors Stand Guard
In its simplest form, an electronic alarm system is a low-voltage
electrical circuit with sensors on entry doors and windows. When a
door or window is opened, its sensor detects the interruption in the
flow of electricity and triggers a warning signal such as a siren or
strobe light.

Consider Some Specifics
Reducing the risk of break-ins is simply a matter of making your home
less inviting to burglars than other homes in the neighborhood. It's up
to you.
Doors. Outside doors should be metal or solid hardwood, and at
least 1 3/4 inches thick. Frames must be made of equally strong
material, and each door must fit its frame securely. Remember, if it is
placed in a weak door, even the most efficient lock will not keep out
a determined burglar. A peephole or a wide-angle viewer in the door
is safer for identifying visitors than a door chain. Sliding glass doors
present a special problem because they are easy to open, but there
are locks designed for them. A broomstick in the door channel can
help, but don't depend on it for security.

How can you slow burglars down? Time is a burglar's enemy, too. A
burglar delayed for four or five minutes is apt to give up and try for
another, less difficult location. Simple security devices -- including
such ordinary equipment as nails, screws, padlocks, door and
window locks, grates, bars and bolts -- can discourage intruders and
keep them from entering.

"Case" Your Place
Take the time to "case" your house or apartment, just as a burglar
would. Here are a few questions to get you started:
Where is the easiest entry? How can you make it more burglar
resistant? Trim trees and shrubs near your doors and windows, and
think carefully before installing a high, wooden fence around your
back yard. High fences and shrubbery can add to your privacy, but
privacy is a burglar's asset. Consider trading a little extra privacy for a
bit of added security. Force any would-be burglar to confront a real
enemy -- light. Exterior lights, mounted out of easy reach, can reduce
the darkness a burglar finds comforting.

Never give the impression that you are home alone if strangers
telephone or come to the door.

If you come home and find a door or window open or signs of forced
entry, don�t go in. Go to the nearest phone and call Post 1 or the local
law enforcement authorities.
Think About It
Knowing about a burglar's three worst enemies -- light, time and
noise -- can help you protect your home from crime. A burglar won't
find your home an "easy mark" if he's forced to work in the light, if he
has to take a lot of time breaking in, and if he can't work quietly.

Stationary surveillance is most commonly used by terrorist

because that part of the route is least easily varied. People are
generally most vulnerable in the morning when departing for work

Extra precautions are necessary when shopping. If you take packages
out to lock them in your trunk, then plan to return to the stores to do
more shopping, it may be a good idea to move your car to another
section of the parking lot or street. The criminal knows that you will
be coming back and can wait to ambush you. By moving your car,
you give the impression you�re leaving. If you think you are being
followed, do not go back to your car. Return to the safety of the
occupied shopping area or office building and contact the authorities.

Never, ever pick up hitchhikers!

If another driver tries to force you to pull over or to cut you off, keep
driving and try to get away. Try to note the license plate number of
the car and a description of the car and driver. If this effort places you

safety.

Statistics about fire are frightening. In America, about 30,000 people
are injured and nearly 4,800 die from fire each year. This rate is lower
than in most other countries. Differences in fire codes, building and
electrical standards, and even firefighting capabilities can increase
your threat from fire if you live overseas.
Three vital facts you should know about fire:
It isn�t usually fire that kills; it is the products of combustion--smoke,
toxic gases, or superheated air.
