Ways to make your home safer

A home is a place where everyone wants to feel safe. It is all about warmth and family. Safety means a lot of different things. It means being safe from things outside your home, but the home itself also needs to be safe. Having home insurance provides the degree of safety homeowners need. At Prestige Insurance Group in Miami, FL, our dedicated team of insurance specialists has years of experience. 

The first thing to do to make your home safer is to do a risk assessment. Consider all the things about your home that are not as safe as they could be. Think about who might be in danger from them and then consider ways to make them safer. 

First and foremost, you want to make sure you have working door locks and you use them. Install safety bars on sliders and have windows locked. Having an electronic home security system is something to consider depending on the neighborhood you live in. Make sure bushes are not tall and close to your home. You want anyone around your house to be visible. 

Inside your home, many things can make it safer. Know exactly what chemicals you have in your home and who they could be harmful to. If you have children, cupboard locks are a must, and you should be aware of any allergies in the family. Many chemicals and detergents are also harmful to pets so take care of your furry friends. 

Home maintenance is also essential. Make sure to get your chimney cleaned before using, change batteries in smoke and carbon dioxide detectors, and have a family plan for exiting your home in the event of an emergency. If you have a pool or trampoline, make sure all safety measures possible are in place.
