To protect your valuables, you close and lock your door to your office, safety deposit box or home. In apartments and condos, we lock our unit’s door, but ignore the front door, the garage door, the propped open side door,to our peril. These are portals to our valuables. Residents, unit owners, managers, security guards need to be aware of the potential for loss or crime, when these areas are entered by persons or vehicles unknown.

No one likes to put someone on the spot, but a quick shoulder check or the closing of a propped open door, ensures everyone’s safety.
