Summer is known for vacations, pleasant weather, and creating lasting moments with loved ones. While you deserve to head out and live your best life, you should also take precautions to preserve those precious moments. Check out our simple summer safety tips and see how an advanced security system can help safeguard your Flint home and your family members. Don’t permit a security lapse to ruin your fun in the sun!

Keep Doors And Windows Secure In Your Flint Home

You love the summer breeze flowing through your windows in the evenings. Just be sure to shut and secure them if you go out! Your modern alarm system can assist by letting you know if an access point is unsecure. If you try to arm your home, but mistakenly leave a door or window open, your system will notify you of the oversight. You can have warnings delivered through your cell phone’s home security app regardless of your location.

Stay Protected When You’re Traveling

Countless families holiday in the summer, leaving houses unoccupied for days or weeks at a time. A smart home security system with remote accessibility will keep you connected, allowing you to see live camera footage or recorded events through your cell phone. You might also program smart lights to illuminate at seemingly random times to make your residence appear occupied. If a triggered event occurs, your system will notify you and your monitoring specialists right away.

Here are several other safety tips when going on vacation:

• Never broadcast your holiday on social media. Even when posting privately, you don’t really know who will view the details. Alternatively, share pictures of your travels once you get back.
• Encourage a neighbor to monitor things and let you know if something suspicious arises.
• Make sure exterior lights are set on a timer and turn on at night and consider using motion-detecting lights.

Have Fun In The Sun With These Additional Summertime Safety Tips

Securing your home is crucial, but you must also protect yourself and your family during summer’s many outdoor activities. You can do so by abiding by these additional summertime safety tips:

• Monitor children around fireworks, grills, pools, and busy streets
• Shield your skin with sunscreen and reapply often, particularly when swimming
• Have a person in your home get trained in CPR
• Always swim with a friend
• Use helmets when biking, and life jackets when on boats
• Be able to recognize poisonous plants and educate kids
• Always tell somebody where you plan to go
• Maintain fencing around swimming pools and lock gates when they’re not in use

Pools are one of the delights of the summer season, but they also are a recognized risk. Think about installing smart locks on pool gates to enhance your security and safety.
