According to BuildingOnline.com, Kwikset, the maker of the SmartKey, a re-key technology that lets homeowners re-key their own locks anytime without removing the door, recently launched the “LiveSmart” Sweepstakes. The sweepstakes will run through November 1, 2010 and aims to show parents and homeowners how easy “smart” home security is to manage and what it can do to protect your home.
Entrants have the chance to win one of six home giveaway packages ranging from Kwikset SmartKey products as well as other products for your home, to a iPad, to the grand prize of a Smart Car coupe.
According to the article on BuildingOnline.com, the most recent Unified Crime Report from the Federal Bureau of Investigation indicates that there were over 2.2 million robberies reported in 2008, a 2% increase from 2007, 3.6% increase from 2004 and 5.8% increase from 1999. Last years inaugural American Security Study showed that 47% of homeowners did not change the locks on their home when the first moved in. One-third of homeowners have never changed or re-keyed their locks since moving in, which is startling since about half of homeowners reported that they routinely loan house keys to non-residents and previous owners frequently continue to carry old house keys.
These statistics played a part in motivating Kwikset to launch the “LiveSmart” Sweepstakes to raise awareness to homeowners the importance of home security in a fun way. The Kwikset SmartKey products have been very popular since they were introduced and Kwikset wants everyone to understand just how easy and affordable the products are to use to satisify their every day home security needs.
