Check your home security levels

With thefts and burglary forecast to increase as a result of the recession, you might find it worthwhile to do the following brief on-line questionnaire to check out how secure your home is. Your responses will get a rating out of 100% and suggest ways of improving your security.

    I got 85% not too bad considering i'm a slightly paranoid security freak lol
    Just got a few things to change :)

    Better still there was a link on that survey to immobilise.com who i'd never heard of before - you can add items like phones, cameras etc with security numbers and identifiers so if their stolen hopefully you can eventually get them back - again, due to the paranoia lol, I think it will be helpful for insurance reasons if the worst happens.

    Thanks to OP :D

    98% a lot wasn't applicable, but most of it was just common sense
