Home Protection Tips:
- Know Your Enemy: Find your weak spots first and eliminate them.
- Delay: Time works against a burglar. A five minute delay may be enough to convince him to give up and move on.
- Light: Exterior lighting that’s installed out of easy reach will deny thieves the darkness they find so comforting.
- Noise: Try to make the notion of robbing your home a noisy undertaking. Noise is an important factor working against a burglar.
- Room With A View: Rearranging some of your furnishings so that valuables are not easy to see from the outside may be a good idea.
- Locks: Install good locks and use them. Deadbolt locks offer the best protection on your doors. Consider removable bolts for windows. Add an extra lock to sliding glass doors or lay a wooden rod into the slide track. Don’t forget about the locks on your garage – especially if it’s attached.
- Privacy Does Not Equal Protection: Privacy is an asset to an intruder. Keep trees and shrubs trimmed and away from your doorways or other likely break–in spots. Think carefully about the risks before installing high fences around your property.
- Create an Illusion: Make it look like someone’s at home. Some ways to do this include using timers for your interior lights, stereos and television, making arrangements with a friend or neighbour to collect your mail, have your grass cut in the summer and clear your driveway and side walk in the winter.
- Spares: Try not to hide spare keys outdoors. Thieves seem to have an uncanny ability to find your ‘great’ hiding spots.

Tips for Lost Car Keys and Locked Keys in Your Car:
- Try to not panic.
- Do not leave your car unattended.
- Calling the dealer where you purchased the car would require a tow to the showroom, at your expense, and possibly wait time if they were unable to do the job immediately. Try to avoid this unnecessary expense and waste of your valuable time.
- Call Alex Locks at (416) 780-1105 or (647) 887-6200. Whether your car is an older model or a new one with a transponder chip in the lock we can produce a new key, even without the car maker’s immobilizer information. You may think this is impossible because many new car locks are equipped with embedded security codes making copying or replacing impossible but our roadside car key services can produce a brand new key that can be coded and programmed into your car’s system making it the only key to operate the car. If your car is an older model without a transponder lock, it would still be advisable to have a new key cut in case someone else has a key and access to your car. A new key and lock would eliminate that possibility.

Business Security Tips:
- Secure Every Entrance: Consider all the ways someone could enter your place of business and ensure only authorized people can do so. Physical security measures are the very backbone of your business' security. Ensure you fit good quality five-lever mortise locks to your doors. Fit locks to your windows, especially those that are on the ground floor or are accessible, for example, from a flat roof. Remember that any outbuildings will also need a quality lock in order to protect their contents.
- Fencing and Gates: Property fencing and gates should be substantial and well-maintained, with locks fitted on entrances to a property. Consider the installation of bollards or barriers on the entrances to car parks to prevent unauthorised vehicular access out of hours. - Training: Train employees about keeping the office and business secure for the protection of your business as well as their safety.
- Training: Train employees about keeping the office and business secure for the protection of your business as well as their safety.
- Security Systems, Alarms and Cameras: Consider implementing systems in the office that track those that enter and exit your business. Your office should also be located in an area that can be seen from the street easily as most thieves or burglars are attracted to businesses that are hidden from view. If your business is hidden from view, an audio alarm might help to reduce the risks of not being seen easily. A monitored intruder alarm will make a real impact on deterring a criminal from entering a property and alert a monitoring centre if an alarm is triggered.
- Lighting: Adequate Lighting is important not only for the interior of your building, but it is also a must for the exterior. For your office space, always leave a light on when you leave for the night so police or security can see into it. For the perimeter, always maintain good lighting on doors and in parking lots. Security lighting can deter a thief from trespassing onto premises and can draw attention to an incident if a crime is taking place.
- After Hours: Take precaution when working late, such as employees leaving their office unlocked as they go to the washroom. Lock all doors after hours and ensure each employee has their own designated key to their office.
- Access Control: Simple access control systems can be fitted to prevent access to unauthorised areas, protecting storage areas and staff or office facilities.
