Driveway Security

The first thing a thief would look to steal if he could is your car parked in the driveway. Your car is worth a lot to car theft rings who run chop shops or simply ship the car intact to another country. Car theft is still a huge problem today, even though most new cars come with car alarms in place.

Aside from the storage of your car, the driveway is a pathway to your home. Without a fence in the driveway, it is possibly the best point of access for a burglar. Many driveways are lined with fences or shrubbery that give the burglar protection from being seen.

Since gated driveways are typically only used by wealthy home owners on estates, what can you do make your driveway safer yet still not be considered snobbish by your less security conscious neighbors?

The first thing to do is remove shrubbery that obstructs the view of the end of your driveway from the views of your neighbors. Neighbor's eyes and windows are a free security feature, so why not use them? The next thing to do is install driveway alarms.
