Just google Atlanta Home Invasions and you simply wont believe the stats. No matter if you're white, black, male, female, wealthy, or poor, you and your loved ones could be the next victims of a burglary or violent invasion.
Very few events are asfrightning and potentially fatal as a violent home invasion or robbery. Though the daily risk of theseevents uponAmericans and their dwellingsare not typically tracked, news headlines tellthetruestoryvicious home attacks are now, sadly, part of our everyday lives. Because criminals have no regard for human life, violence and murder are simply a means to achieving an evil goalrobbing you of valuable assets, money, and sense of security.
Today'salarming statistics on home invasions and burglaries say it all:
Approximately 1 out of every 5 homes encounters a burglary or violent home intrusion
Up to 77% of home invasions are done forcibly through a "locked" door
Home burglary takes place every 15 seconds in the U.S.
As you can see from the troubling statistics, burglaries and violent home intrusions occur every few seconds across our nation. You never know when you might be next. So don't make the awful mistake of depending on alarm systems and locked doors as your only barricade or deterrent for criminals. Instead, make sure to add varying levels of security such as premium dead bolts, window protection films, and security door stops to make it exceedingly difficult for thieves and possibly violent criminals to enter your home.
One such affordable and highly effective residential security device is the patented door security brace by OnGARD. This revolutionary door brace is composed of a space-age polymer, the same substance found in U.S. fighter planes and transportation bridges worldwide. The OnGARD door stop is remarkably durable and stands firm against:
A small, unobtrusive, two-piece mechanism installed at the base of the door, this particular door stop works by combining the strength of the existing door, door frame, and the OnGARD door stop itself. These combined strengths enable the door to endure the most forceful of blows. Although a criminal may kick and thrust himself against the door multiple times, it usually does not take long before his fear of being seen or heard sets in, causing him to give up on the attempted break-in and the unexpected security measures.
By no means can you completely eliminate the chance of a home invasion, but you can certainly reduce your chances of becoming a victim by heeding my advice. Rememberthe key to lowering your risk is adding layers of protection to your home so that any attempt to enter it is extremely problematic for the intruder.
