You don’t have to be a security expert to keep your house safe from burglars. There are simple things you can do to improve your home security.
To support residents in taking an active role in reducing the opportunity for crime, the Shire of Northam’s Community Safety Committee has developed a Home Security Assessment Guide which can be used to identify security issues in their home.
It is recommended that the completed Home Security Assessment Guide is then taken to your local hardware store for advice on cost effective products to assist with securing your home.
