Access and Key Control

  • Don’t allow strangers on your premises or in your house unless you have properly identified them, especially at night
  • Ensure proper key control
  • Identify house keys and keep in safe places not visible when not in use
  • Keys to safes should be kept on person
  • Don’t use the traditional places like door mats and pot plants to hide keys
  • If a key is left in the keyhole, turn to avoid easy removal
  • Don’t allow strangers to handle your keys as numbers could be read off them
  • If you loose any keys change the locks
  • Remove keys from doors when leaving or turn them in keyhole
