There is nothing more unsettling than walking into your home and realizing someone has been inside who shouldn’t be. Break ins are an unfortunate reality in Las Vegas, from Summerlin to Henderson and beyond.
If it has happened to you, you are not alone. There are steps you can take to recover, protect your family, and make sure it never happens again.
Step One: Stay Safe and Call the Police
If you think someone might still be inside, do not enter your home. Get to a safe place and call 911 immediately. Your safety always comes first.
Once the police arrive, they will help you file a report, which you will need for your insurance company. Try not to touch or move anything until law enforcement has finished their investigation.
Step Two: Document and Notify
When the police give the all clear, start documenting what you see.
Take photos and videos of any damage, broken locks, or missing items.
Contact your insurance company right away to start a claim.
Secure your home by replacing broken locks and boarding up any windows if needed.
It is also a good time to look around and figure out how the intruder got in.
Step Three: Understand How Break Ins Happen in Las Vegas
Most burglaries in Las Vegas happen during the day when people are at work. Thieves target weak entry points such as sliding glass doors, older front doors, or windows with flimsy screens.

Even in gated communities, burglars look for easy access and little resistance. That is why your doors and windows are the most important part of your home security.
The Best Way to Prevent Another Break In
Many homeowners invest in alarm systems or cameras after a break in. While those tools can help, they only alert you after someone has already entered your home.
To truly prevent another burglary, you need a physical barrier that stops intruders before they can get inside. That is where Guardian Security Screens comes in.
