Make Your Home a Hard Target
Professional residential security consulting designed to identify vulnerabilities and deliver customized recommendations that help protect what matters most.
Security Starts
with Design
Professional residential security goes beyond cameras and alarm systems. The way a home is designed, illuminated, landscaped, and accessed all influence how attractive it appears to a potential offender. Small changes can significantly reduce opportunities for crime while preserving the beauty and functionality of your home.
RTS Home Consulting applies the principles of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED), an evidence-based approach that uses thoughtful property design to improve security before incidents occur.
HOW WE HELP
Small Changes.
Stronger Security.
Comprehensive Security Assessments
At RTS Home Consulting, we evaluate the features of your property that can affect security and provide practical recommendations to strengthen and enhance your home.
Exterior Lighting & Visibility
Landscaping & Concealment
Doors, Windows, & Physical Barriers
Perimeter Security Considerations
Entry Points & Access Routes
Cameras & Surveillance Placement
General Opportunities to Improve Safety
Rather than recommending unnecessary products, we evaluate how your property functions as a complete security system. Every assessment considers the relationship between lighting, landscaping, visibility, access, and physical security to identify practical improvements tailored to your home.
Following the assessment, clients receive practical recommendations designed to strengthen security while maintaining the appearance and functionality of their home.
OUR APPROACH
