How to Protect Your Home Security While You Airbnb
Airbnb is a great new way for home owners to make some extra income when they’re out of the house. Temporary home and apartment rentals are becoming more and more common. Some home owners even elect to rent out their basement or guest bedrooms to temporary guests. How do you ensure your home security with all these different visitors passing through the house? Here are a few tips and tricks for protecting your home security if you have Airbnb guests.
Smart Locks
Renting out your home or part of your home to temporary visitors gives a lot of different people access to your property. Lost or stolen keys can become a security risk, and having your locks changed manual after each guest can be expensive, disruptive and time-consuming. Smart locks are usually code-operated so you can easily change the code between visitors to ensure your security. With the mobile app from Globaltek Security, you can monitor and control your smart lock from a remote distance for improved security.
External Security Cameras
Placing security cameras on the outside of your home is a great way to keep track of any suspicious activity that’s occurring on your property. Security cameras can be connected to our mobile security app so you can watch footage remotely and keep track of your home even when you’re not there. Some of these cameras can be equipped with license plate and facial recognition technology to provide you with a more detailed account of any suspicious activity. External security cameras are a good idea for Airbnb guests and temporary visitors so you can keep track of who’s coming and going from your property.
Temporary rental groups such as Airbnb are a great way for homeowners to make some extra income on their property. Allowing temporary guests into your home, however, can present a security risk and it’s important to take the necessary steps to keep your household safe.
