Protect These Commonly Stolen Items

Don’t let burglars walk away with these household items.

When burglars break into a home, they know they have a short amount of time to work before someone calls the police.  This is why they tend to focus their attention on the property that can be easily removed.  As a homeowner, taking extra steps to protect commonly-stolen items will thwart burglars and reduce the chances of them taking something of value.  Here are the most-stolen items that you should safeguard.

  • Personal Computing Devices

Laptops and tablets are a favorite with burglars.  Not only are these items portable and, therefore, easy to grab, but they can also be resold at a good price.  To protect your laptops and tablets, you can secure them with alarms, laptop locks, and warning stickers or labels.  You should also consider concealing your devices or locking them up when they are not in use.  You should also make sure that your personal computing devices are protected by a strong password and encryption software so, if your devices are stolen, the burglars cannot access your sensitive data.

  • Televisions

HD and 4D televisions are becoming popular with burglars because they are valuable, more lightweight than older tv models, and more common in households than ever before.  While you cannot conceal your television, you can make it harder to remove from your home by attaching it to a secure wall mount.  You can also go the extra mile by installing a tracking device on your tv so you can locate it if it is stolen.

  • Gaming Systems

Most homeowners keep their gaming devices out in the open, so they are easy to set up and play.  However, this makes them an easy target for burglars who are looking to grab and go.  One of the best ways to protect your gaming devices is by packing them up and storing them out of sight when they are not in use.  You may even want to consider locking them up to further reduce the chance of them being stolen.

These are some of the most commonly stolen household items.  Want another way to protect your belongings from theft?  If so, then secure the right protections with comprehensive homeowners insurance.  For assistance with all your home coverage needs, contact the experts at Gant Insurance Agency today.
