We have an alarm system, and I save all receipts of valuable purchases, and have taken pictures of my gear along with the serial numbers. When I bring my gear in and out of the house I try to do so discreetly with the garage door closed.

What precautions are you taking?


These burglary gangs work naighbourhood after neighbourhood, and switch to a different one every few weeks, before things get to hot....

In general they choose the best houses where they can get the best loot with the least burglary precautions...


I am not taking to many real precautions, i have a fake outside allarm system with Cameras and fake sensors that looks real and sophisticated even up close. I also have some movement sensors attached to my fire warning system which is a silent system that class the police/firedepartment in case of allarm.... but honestly i never switch (the burglar alarm part) on because the chance for false allarms is to big and overhere they make you pay big money for every false burglar allarm.

Next to that i dont allow any strangers in my house, and only companies that i invited over, so they can not know what to expect inside.
