Crime Prevention Tip of
the Month
Pedestrian Gate
Safety
by
Officer David Kohlmeier
We have
explained the importance of frequently changing the codes on your vehicle
gates, but what about pedestrian gates? These entrances use
either traditional keys or punch keypads to allow
entry into a community. Some haven't been changed in years, which means that
those who have moved out of your neighborhood often still have access.
Officer
Kohlmeier reminds you that traditional keys
should be changed every six months. Keypad codes can be changed more often - every 3 months.
Clearly, it is easier and cheaper to change a keypad code than a standard
key; this is why so many communities have opted to make the switch.
"Implementing these changes will help keep unwanted people out of your
neighborhood", says Officer Kohlmeier. "I believe
gated communities will have fewer quality of life problems if they
consistently work to keep their pedestrian gates secured”.
