So if you would like to find out more about improving the safety of your garage door, you’re in the right place. At Professional Garage Concepts LLC, we’ve put together top tips when in relation to your garage doors.

Don’t Leave Your Garage Door Unlocked

Regardless of whether your neighborhood is regarded as a safe one, you should never leave your garage door unlocked or open. You never know who might be passing by and if your garage door is left opened, an opportunist may just take advantage!

Never Leave Your Garage Remote in Your Car

Leaving your garage door remote control in your vehicle is a huge mistake. If a thief likes the look of your car and manages to break into it, they’ve won the lottery if the remote for your garage door is in there. Once they have access to that, they have access to the entire contents of your garage and possibly even your home.

Install ‘Safe’ Windows

There are so many wonderful designs available when it comes to your garage door windows. However, you should consider installing windows that are frosted or blacked out. This will prevent potential thieves and also means that passers-by can’t see into your garage. This is particularly important if you have valuable items stored in your garage.

Consider Installing Motion Detecting Lights

Motion detectors mean that if anyone approaches your garage door, lights will turn on alerting you of a presence. This can be highly beneficial in preventing theft.
