Tips to Safeguard Your Home in the Northern Territory

In the dynamic landscape of the Northern Territory, property damage and house break-ins are unfortunately common crimes, according to NT Police. To strengthen your home against potential threats, consider these valuable tips to stay ahead of the game and protect your sanctuary.


1. Install Security Doors and Screens: Take advantage of the unique climate in the Territory by installing security doors and screens. This not only allows the refreshing breeze to flow through your home but also acts as a robust barrier against potential intruders.


2. Keep Doors Locked: Whether you're at home or busy in the garden, make it a habit to keep your doors locked. However, it's crucial to strike a balance and avoid deadlocking yourself inside, especially in emergency situations.


3. Secure Your Keys: Be mindful of where you leave your keys. Avoid placing car keys or any other keys near doors or open windows, as these can become easy targets for opportunistic thieves.


4. Review Your Insurance: Regularly review your home and contents insurance to ensure it's up to date. Having comprehensive insurance provides an added layer of protection and peace of mind, especially in unforeseen circumstances. For an easy online quote with AANT Home Insurance, click here.
