No more Locked Drawers
This is kind of the opposite of what we’ve said throughout this list, but… don’t lock your drawers? It kind of gives it away that something expensive is located within the drawer. Just keep it unlocked, it will only cause unnecessary damage to nice furniture if a thief has to use a crowbar to open it.
If you do not lock it they might bypass the drawer assuming there is nothing of value there simply because it is not locked. Of course, none of these tips are fool-proof, but they could provide a layer of protection if there is an intrusion. Try to fool them. Try to confuse them.
