It is certainly not easy to get a mortgage nowadays and it you have already gone through all of the paperwork and the heartache to secure your very own home when you are to be congratulated for that. Anyone who is trying to get onto the first rung of the property ladder today will tell you how difficult that it is and so now that you already own your own home, you need to do whatever you can to protect what will likely be the single biggest investment that you will make in your life.
Many people talk about installing alarm systems, they suggest buying yourself a guard dog and many other things but one of the most important things that you can do is to light up your property when you are not there. All you need to do is invest in street lighting pole columns and then attach whatever kind of lighting is suitable for your needs. There are lights that are turned on by motion detectors and so if there is an unwanted visitor on your property then it will pretty much light them up like a Christmas tree.
If there are any dark spots for opportunist thieves to lurk then they will find them and so the following are just some of the benefits of lighting up the area around your property in Thailand.
- The security cameras can see everything – Modern security cameras do have night vision but this only gives you an outline of the person and provides you with absolutely no detail on how they look. Installing the right lighting on your property on the other hand will allow your cameras to be able to record the individual so that they can be easily identified by the police when you call them.
- It brings attention to your property – If you have neighbours on either side of you and across the road then this will allow them to know when someone is around the property when you are not there. Usually, when we travel away for the weekend, we let the neighbours know that we will be away and ask them if they could keep an eye on the property. Having lighting that activates the moment that someone steps onto your property is a great way to bring attention that there is an uninvited guest.
- It acts as a great deterrent – If an opportunist thief or a professional burglar sees that you have spent time and money installing pole columns and then attaching lights to them then they will move further down the road to much easier pickings. Why would they want to bring attention to themselves and risk getting caught when there are literally hundreds of other houses in your neighbourhood that they could be canvassing right at this moment?
If you’re going to spend money on your property this year then invest in street lighting pole columns and the appropriate security lighting that will protect your investment and also your family.
