First of all, many people assume that a garage door is usually highly strong and safe. Therefore, they don’t see a need to check the security of the door and make changes. However, did you know that a compromised garage door is an easy way for a burglar to access your house?. If the door isn’t secured properly and has a simple lock, it will probably lead to a break-in to your property.
Second, this door provides direct access to your home. It’s probably not a surprise but most people tend to leave the interior door that leads to the house unlocked. That is because they think their garage door is secured enough so they can leave this door open. However, it is highly important to secure the door.

Lock the door inside
In most garages, there’s an interior door inside that provides access to the house. Moreover, people usually tend to leave it open. However, this door acts as a direct passage to your home. Therefore, it is very important to lock it in case someone will manage to break through your garage door.
Always make sure the door is closed
We highly suggest you avoid leaving your garage door unlocked, even if you are leaving the house for a few moments. Please remember to always make sure the door is closed well before leaving your house. Don’t allow the burglars to have the slightest chance of getting in.
Maintain the garage door
In order to keep the door secure, check it from time to time (on a regular basis). Don’t wait for it to malfunction in order to maintain it. Moreover, a non-operational garage door increases the chances of having break-in incidents
Always carry your remote with you
Almost all people keep the garage remote in the car, in a visible place. However, it’s a big mistake! It’s easier to break into your car than you think, especially if the remote key is located in an easy place that can be seen. So, make sure to have the remote with you at all times, and if you have to, avoid leaving it in a visible spot.
Have a high secured lock instead of a regular one
There are many types of locks you can install on your garage door. Some people choose to install a simple one, while others have a roller door. We highly suggest you install a high-security lock (with a password or fingerprint) on your garage door. That way, not only you lower the chances of a break-in. But, also there is no way you can lose the key.
To sum up,

We can install all types of locks, even high-security ones.
