Do you live in an unsafe neighborhood? Do you worry about home invasions? Sadly, it seems like we hear of people getting attacked in their own homes more and more often these days. One security measure that some homeowners have invested in is a safe room. While some might view this as an extreme solution, it does give you a safe place to escape to in the event of a home invasion.
Of course, a safe room is only going to protect you if it is made right, properly stocked up, and in the right location.
It is important that the weight of the safe room is supported since it can be quite heavy. Since you are investing quite a lot of money into your safety, you should also make sure it is built by a reputable contractor, since a poorly built safe room could turn out to be not so safe.
If you don’t have supplies available in the safe room, and you end up being stuck in there for a considerable amount of time, then you would put your health at risk as well, and if it isn’t in the right location, you could end up being cut off from accessing your safe room by the intruders.
All in all, a safe room could add a layer of protection to your home, but only if it is properly planned out.
