Burglaries can happen at any time in any neighborhood. In order to make your home as secure as possible, the Lewisville Police Department offers the following suggestions:

• Lock your doors and windows when leaving your home.
• Be sure to set your alarm when leaving home, if you have one.
• Keep your garage door closed, even when you are home.
• Install exterior lighting. 
• Trim or remove bushes or shrubs in front of windows.
• Get to know your neighbors and watch each other's properties. 
• Don’t leave a spare key under the mat or other obvious place. Leave one with a trusted neighbor instead.
• Do not announce vacations or other absences on social media, such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. 
• Stop mail and newspaper services when leaving your home for extended periods.
• Put lights on timers to help make your house look occupied while you are away for extended periods.
• Request a Home Security Survey from the Lewisville Police Department (see instructions below).
