GPS Tracking for Your Tiny House
24 Apr 2017
Tiny houses offer a great deal of appeal to audiences from all walks of life. Whether it’s a couple looking for an ideal retirement home, families looking to reduce expenses, people looking to downsize their lives, or someone simply hoping to simplify and live a life with a lower carbon footprint, tiny homes are appealing.
Unfortunately, not everyone who finds them so appealing is willing to go about getting them the right way. In fact, tiny homes are frequent targets for thieves who are interested in selling them for a quick buck or looking for a rent-free place to live as well.
Tiny houses are often on wheels. It is one of the things that is attractive about them to buyers – the fact that if you don’t like the neighborhood it is a simple matter to pack up, pick up, and go in search of new neighbors. That also means that it is a simple matter for thieves to pack up your home and abscond with it when you’re not there to protect your home. These easier it is to move, the more likely it is that there will be people interested in moving it without your permission – not to mention willing to do so.
Tools for Protecting Your Tiny Home
The key to protect your tiny home from theft lies in making it an unattractive target. The more security measures you have in place, the less thieves become interested in taking what is yours.
Install a Security Camera Surveillance System
Begin with a high-tech security system. Store it near your tiny home rather than on or in it to not only catch those who do take your home but to discover if there seem to be people casing your tiny home or the tiny homes of your neighbors. This allows you to keep an eye on your home wherever you may be – thanks to remote streaming on your smartphone or laptop.
Restrict Access to Your Property
Consider installing a locked gate that means people must have a key to or electronic code enter your property. The fewer people who have access to your property the more secure your tiny home will be. Don’t forget to consider physical barriers that will make your home difficult to move like landscaping boulders and such.
Install GPS Tracking on Your Tiny Home
GPS tracking is hugely beneficial in that it allows you to track your home if it is taken to assist in recovery efforts and – hopefully – enable the swift recovery of your tiny home before damage befalls it.
