Planning to go on a holiday but worried about leaving your house unattended? Ensuring your property's safety while travelling is paramount.
Installing CCTV or motion sensor cameras, securely locking doors and windows, and keeping lights on are obvious ways to protect your property from burglars. However, did you know you could also seek help from the Dubai Police for home security?
It is a free preventative security service to protect the homes while residents are on vacation, inside or outside the country or while travelling for other reasons. This service allows villa residents to use patrols available in neighbourhoods to monitor their homes.
