Most preppers have thought carefully about food storage, water, and communications — but walk right past their front door every day without giving it a second thought. In a world where economic pressure is driving opportunistic crime to new highs, your home's physical entry points may be the most overlooked gap in your entire preparedness plan. If you haven't intentionally evaluated your doors, windows, and garage against the eyes of someone looking for easy access, you may be far less protected than you think.

In this episode of Ready Your Future, Todd lays out the foundational concept of home security layers — applying the same redundancy mindset serious preppers use for food and energy to the physical hardening of their home. Todd walks through the primary entry points that burglars actually use, the surprising statistics behind front doors, first-floor windows, and back doors, and breaks down specific, low-cost upgrades any homeowner can implement in a single weekend. 

Home security layers aren't about building a fortress — they're about making your home a harder target than the next one.  This is Part 1 of a two-part series, and the fundamentals Todd covers here are the non-negotiable starting point for anyone serious about protecting what matters most. Don't wait for a close call to make these upgrades — the time to harden your home is before you need it.
