You not only want to feel safe in your home but to be safe. Safety begins outside and continues inside. At&nbsp;Wine Valley Insurance Services in Napa, CA, we have years of insurance experience. As an independent insurance agency, we have many carriers to offer to our customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Add motion lights<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Having well-positioned motion lights on the exterior of your home can provide you with a clear vision of what is happening on the exterior of your home, even on the darkest nights. It can also deter anyone trying to come up to the house unobserved.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Add a home security system<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>These days, home security systems are easy to install and inexpensive. There isn&#8217;t any excuse not to have one. You can monitor your home with your cellphone while you are away, which is quite convenient.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Clear the walkways<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Trips and falls are a huge risk at any home. Clutter, in the way, is one common reason. This is important in all areas of your home, both inside and out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Change the batteries in smoke detectors<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Fire is a serious risk in California, and you should be prepared by having working smoke detectors and fire extinguishers in your home. If you lose electricity, you need a battery backup.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Lock your windows<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>People remember to lock their doors, but they all too often forget to lock their windows. Windows have locks for a good reason: They keep intruders out and children from falling out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Contact our office<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>For a no-obligation quote, call Wine Valley Insurance Services in Napa, CA. We will help you choose the perfect home insurance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having a safe home is an important part of homeownership.
