#SafeIsSmart Campaign: Thank You For Your Support

As the month of June has come to an end, we at SABRE would like to thank everyone who has participated in our #SafeIsSmart campaign. So many great tips have been shared, and many people say they’ve been inspired to purchase a SABRE Home Series Product.

With June being both the first month of the summer and National Home Safety Month, we felt it would be an appropriate time to promote our SABRE Home Series Line, designed to provide everyone access to superior home security.

SABRE Home Series Products are available at your local Target store.

With burglary crime rates on the rise as they occur every 14.5 seconds in the U.S., there is a need for reliable and affordable security alarm options to help consumers protect themselves, their loved ones and their property. We believe that everyone needs to be ready and prepared because unfortunately, violence and property crime rates continue to increase, even in the safest of neighborhoods and suburbs.

In addition to the SABRE Home Series, we also feel it is important to raise awareness about personal safety. We started our #SafeIsSmart campaign in the month of June to get consumers engaged in conversation about their safety. SABRE encouraged others to share  #SafeIsSmart tips and advice about how they are protecting themselves and their families across Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

We would like to give a special thanks to the following bloggers for taking part in our #SafeIsSmart Campaign and spreading the word to raise awareness!

“SABRE’s line of home safety products are now available in-stores at TARGET. I think these would be great investments for someone who lives in a dorm, rents an apartment, or is looking for a more cost-efficient way to add an alarm to their home.And my SABRE pepper spray now lives on my keychain.”

Lauren of Skinny Fat Girl Diary


“June, being National Safety Month, gave me the push I needed to take a realistic look at my personal safety.”

Ericka Andersen of Sweet Life With Ericka

“It’s such a simple step to take the time that could save your life. When you hear about home break-ins or devastating circumstances where someone is harmed or killed, all you can think about is how they could have protected themselves. Chances are, it’s not going to happen to you — but why take the chance?”

Jennifer Cassetta


“As a huge advocate for women’s safety, I am super excited about the #SafeIsSmart campaign sponsored by Sabre personal safety products.”

In addition to these special bloggers here are a few of SABRE’s favorite posts from viewers like you!

SABRE is donating $1 to RAINN, the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network for every #SafeIsSmart hashtag used in the month of June.

After tallying the results, there were 325 posts with the hashtag #SafeIsSmart! Great job to everyone who participated!

Together, we have shared many tips and facts in regards to our home and personal safety.
Here are a few facts and tips you should keep in mind:

  • 83% of homes in the U.S. don’t have a home security system. Meanwhile, there are 25,000 burglaries in the U.S every day.
  • Over 50% of intruders enter through first floor windows or back doors?
  • Ask a trustworthy friend or family member to get your mail while on vacation so burglars can’t see that you’ve been gone.
  • Wait until you’re back home before you share vacation photos on social networks!
  • Hiding your spare key near the front door is usually easy for a criminal to find
  • Don’t wait for a crime to be committed before you decide to protect your home and family. Guard your home while you still can with The SABRE Home Series.

The month of June has ended but we encourage you to continue to spread the word about the importance of home and personal safety. Again, we thank you all for your participation in this campaign! And remember. Be Smart. Be ready. Safe is still smart.

#SafeIsSmart: 5 Suggestions to Keep the Burglars Guessing!

Do you have a spare key? If so, I hope you have a good hiding spot for it.

5-Genius-Places-to-Hide-a-Spare-Key.jpg

Let’s take a guess…

Is it under your doormat?

In your porch light?

Under a flower pot or rock near the door?

On top of the door-sill?

In your mailbox?

If the location of your spare key is listed above, it’s time to find a less obvious hiding spot.

For starters, anywhere near your front door is usually easy to find. With burglaries occurring every 14.5 seconds in the United States, you wouldn’t want to give thieves an easy pathway into your home!

Here are five suggestions to keep burglars guessing! #SafeIsSmart


Did you outsmart SABRE? If we didn’t guess the location of your spare key, consider your job well done!
If we did, hopefully you have found a new hiding spot.


Tell us other ways you protect your home! SABRE would like to hear some fresh ideas from YOU! Remember to use the hashtag #SafeIsSmart and SABRE will make a donation to RAINN, the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network:

How Are You Investing in Home Security? Tell Us!

Everyday, there are approximately 25,000 burglaries in the United States.

How will you avoid becoming a statistic? How are you taking action to protect yourself and your family during Home Safety Month this June? 

SABRE is asking you to use the hashtag #SafeIsSmart on your social media platforms to share safety tips and how you've invested in your home's security.

Thank you to everyone who has used #SIS so far! We've seen a lot of great tips getting shared, and many people say they've been inspired to purchase a home security system. 

Here are just a few Home Security Tips we've seen this week - search the #SafeIsSmart hashtag to learn more!
  • 50% of intruders will enter your home through a first floor window or back door. Keeping all doors locked and keeping them in plain sight, not covered by landscaping, is a good way to discourage would-be thieves. 
  • Have a neighbor get your mail, or place a stop on it while you're away.
  • Put a "Beware of Dog" sign up on your property, as burglars are less likely to target homes with a pet.
The new SABRE Home Series, now available at Target stores, has products for everyone and is a cost effective option for many homeowners with no monthly fees. Visit our website for more information about our products, or to order your SABRE Home Series today!
