How do girls who live alone usually increase their sense of security?

First, choose a house with high safety factor.

1. For women who live alone, public space is as important as private space. When renting a house, first evaluate the surrounding living environment. If possible, try to choose a block with convenient transportation, a living area where people gather, and there are police stations and security kiosks around it, which will greatly increase safety.

2. Try to choose apartments and residential quarters instead of commercial houses and relocated houses. The latter is complex and uncertain, and its security is not high. Choose the girl in the village, try to choose a house close to the street, not a house hidden in a deep alley.

3. Before renting a house, you should carefully understand the location, floor and escape route of each entrance and exit and guard on duty in the community, and understand the location of the safety exit and fire door.

4. The security system of the community also needs to be taken into account, such as whether there is no dead angle coverage, whether there is a security guard on duty 24 hours a day, whether it is necessary to swipe the card when entering the door to take the elevator, and whether foreigners need to register. Whether there is danger or not, good security service can improve security to a certain extent.

5. Commuting safety should also be taken into account to avoid going home from work through unmanned, remote, unlit or even unmonitored sections.

6. Rent service should choose a formal intermediary and try to choose a big platform with good reputation. Sign the contract when you see the landlord. Try to maintain good relations with landlords and intermediaries, but don't disclose too much personal information.

Second, establish a small security system.

1, the first thing to do after check-in is to replace the lock cylinder at the entrance of the house. Choose a C-class lock core with higher safety level. This kind of lock core has low mutual opening rate. If the lock is forced to be picked, the lock core will automatically lock, which is much safer.

2. The lock changing master should have filed with the public security organ. For electronic locks such as password locks and fingerprint locks, the factory settings should be restored before use, and all fingerprints and passwords registered in the system should be re-registered after all the fingerprints and passwords registered in the system are cleared. Passwords should not be a simple combination of numbers. In addition, check and change the password of the lock regularly.

3. When using electronic locks such as password locks and fingerprint locks, attention should be paid to blocking passwords, and fingerprints should be erased in time after use; When it is suggested that the battery is low, the battery should be replaced in time, and the emergency power-taking function of the door lock should be known in advance to prevent it from being locked out of the door because of forgetting to replace the battery.

If you use ordinary door lock, get into the habit of locking the door after entering the house. Before going to bed, you can insert the key into the door lock from the house, so that even if the other party has the key, you can't turn the door lock outside the door.

5. Door suction, anti-theft chain or door magnetic alarm can be installed at the door, which not only prevents outsiders from breaking in, but also is small and portable and can be taken to the hotel. If conditions permit, you can also install visual doorbells, smart cameras and other items. It is better to have intelligent alarm and active defense functions. Once there is an abnormal situation, you can receive a reminder immediately.

6. Windows are places where information is easy to leak. Change a sunshade with good confidentiality and install an anti-theft net or a window safety lock. The former prevents peeping, while the latter prevents bad guys from crawling in.

7. If the distance between rented buildings is narrow, you can install transparent glass windows and stick a one-way transparent film to prevent being photographed. Draw the curtains before turning on the light at night, because it is easy to be peeped if the distance between buildings is small.

8. Check the room regularly for hidden bugs and pinhole cameras.

9. You can keep some self-defense tools at any time, preferably light and not easy to hurt yourself, such as anti-wolf spray, pepper spray, electric shock stick, etc. It should be noted that when using spray tools, spray with the wind, otherwise you will hurt yourself.

Third, don't disclose private information easily.

1. When filling in information such as take-away, express delivery and mailing, try not to be accurate to several floors. If you don't fill in your real name, you can use a masculine nickname

2. Try to choose non-contact delivery for take-out and express delivery, preferably at a centralized point.

3. When throwing a courier box or a courier or a takeaway order, remember to cross out your name, address and contact information first.

Don't hang personal clothes directly outside the window, but hang some men's clothes on the balcony from time to time and put an old pair of men's slippers at the door.

5. Remember to turn off the positioning of photos and audio posted on social platforms, and don't expose your home address.

6. Clean up strange notes and symbols left at home, as well as posted advertisements, leaflets, utilities, etc.

7. When making a phone call in the elevator, don't disclose personal privacy information such as your home address and property information during the call.

Fourth, maintain good interpersonal relationships.

1. Good interpersonal relationship is also an important guarantee to help people maintain their own safety system. Keep a good relationship with the doorman, property and cleaning staff in the community, but also pay attention to keeping a proper distance, and don't easily disclose information about living alone.

2. When communicating with the door-to-door service personnel, try to have a good attitude, try to find someone to accompany you, and try not to close the door.

3. Try to avoid conflicts with taxi drivers, couriers and takeaways, especially some unnecessary contradictions and quarrels.

4. Don't bring people home at will, such as friends and colleagues you just met. Many vicious incidents happen between acquaintances.

If you want to go out for a long time, you can give the key to a trusted friend and ask them to help you check the situation at home regularly.

6. Ask friends of the opposite sex to record some audio of daily chat. For example, "When will you come back" and "Do you want to pick you up", let it out in the taxi or elevator at night.

7. Set up alarm assistance and emergency contacts, so that mobile phones can play a role at critical moments. An emergency contact can be your closest friend and you can be on call. You can work with friends to design some code words that only two people can understand. If something happens, the other party can sense it at the first time.

8. Keep the contact information of the community doorman and the police in the jurisdiction. If necessary, they may be the people who can get to the scene as soon as possible.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) be vigilant when you act alone.

1. When walking or running alone, try not to bend your head to play with your mobile phone and wear headphones to listen to music, pay attention to the surrounding situation and look back from time to time.

2. If you feel that you are being followed by suspicious people, first, you can temporarily hide in convenience stores and other places to explain the situation to the owner; The second is to go to the nearest place with good light and go to the place where people gather to call the police.

When entering the gate of residential area or building, try to wait until the door is completely closed before leaving.

4. When you find a strange male colleague, try to stand under the light or where you can make a phone call, stop and wait for the other person to pass by, and leave after confirming safety.

When there are few people waiting for the elevator in the middle of the night, if the elevator is full of men or there are drunk people, you can pretend to be waiting for someone and wait for the next one.

6. When taking the elevator, choose a good position and stand within the monitoring range. The ideal position is to stand next to the elevator button. So you can see the whole situation in the elevator, don't leave your back to others, and don't hinder others from getting on and off the elevator. If there is danger, you can run out at the first time. Moreover, there is monitoring, and most of the bad guys dare not act rashly. If anything happens, it's well documented.

7. When taking the elevator, be the last person to press the floor. It is best to observe and remember the floor where the escalator is going. This will prevent others from knowing where you are going in advance. In addition, if someone arrives at a key floor but doesn't get off the elevator, be vigilant.
