There are a couple of approaches that you could take. If you cannot or do not want to invest that kind of money that a complete home security system requires, you can still secure your doors with some affordable solutions that will add additional protection. One really great idea that I like a lot for its versatility is the door stop alarm. It is essentially just a wedge that sits behind any door that swings open and will stop a door from completely opening if a burglar kicks the door in and breaks the frame. You can also get one with an 80+ dB audible alarm when it is triggered. It provides an extra difficulty for the burglar that bypasses your lock or kicks in your door at a time when you need every second you can find your phone and call the police and also plan for your self protection or escape. As an added bonus, you can pack it in your travel bag and use it in a hotel when you are on travel, as well.

The obvious approach would be to go out, research, and buy a complete home/apartment security system. You could have it professionally installed and sign a contract for a few years at $30-50 a month and purchase that peace of mind. Or, you could opt for a do it yourself installation and skip the contract security companies and pick someone without long term contracts. Some companies don’t even have any monitoring fees. The equipment will still probably set you back $200, at a minimum.
