Want to know how? Here are some tips and tricks to protect yourself when living alone.

 

Do Initial Safety Checks

While looking for the perfect condo for you, do an initial safety check of the area. Check for the safest routes to take, as well as the credibility of the surrounding establishments. Do some research on the property developers and read up on their reviews in order to find a trusted property to invest in.

Besides planning the safest routes around the condominium, you should also be prepared in case of any emergencies.

 

Plan Emergency Exit Scenarios

 

Once you move in, you will need to be prepared to handle emergency situations on your own. Study the exit plan that the property developer created for your entire floor in order to find the emergency exits easily. Keep these in mind in case of any severe emergencies such as fires, earthquakes, or intense storms.

After ensuring the safety of the condominium itself as well as of your floor, you will need to establish your own safety measures within your home.

 

Set Safety Measures Within Your Home

 

When planning the safety measures within your home, take into consideration where your most vulnerable point is. In a condo unit, there is only one way in and out.

Focus on your door. Does it have a peephole for you to check before you open the door? If not, it would be ideal for you to install one. How many locks does your door have? Besides the one provided by the condo developer, consider investing in your own lock as well as in a security door chain.

Once you have set up safety measures in your home, set up rules and practices with your loved ones in order to keep yourself protected.

 

 Constantly Update Your Status with Loved Ones

 

In the case of an emergency, make sure that you have loved ones that you can easily contact. Keep in close touch with these friends and family in order to keep them updated about your status living alone. On your way home in a taxi or through a car-sharing app, send the car’s details to your loved ones and update them when you get home.

These are just some of the ways that you can protect yourself when living alone. Try to think of other ways that can keep you and your home protected at all times.
