DON WINNER’S HOME SECURITY TIPS “criminals are not targeting expats, they are targeting people with money”. The following are a summary of some of Dons home security tips, which can also be found on his website: - Use electronic motion sensors and lights. Make sure your house lights up like a Christmas tree if there is movement outside. D on Winner, the owner of the popular WWW.PANAMA-GUIDE.COM website has investigated many home invasions in Panama. In almost every case, he says the break-in is due to a home owner not being adequately secure. Don says, - Have bars on your windows. Make sure the openings in between the bars are small enough so that a child cannot get in. Many invaders use a child to climb into the house through small openings to unlock the front door. - Use a steel security door on a closet or room, that can be used as a safe room. Keep a charged cell phone with phone numbers for emergency services and neighbours, in your safe room. - If you hear movement in your house, don’t go to investigate. Instead go to your safe room and call the police. - When you call the police, say, ‘there is a bad guy inside my house trying to kill me’. Don’t say, ‘I hear a noise’.
