Turkey's Gold Rush Moves Home: Massive Demand for Smart Safes
Millions of citizens in Turkey are storing their gold at home, creating a significant security risk. This practice, colloquially referred to as 'under the pillow,' involves individuals keeping their precious items in what they consider to be the 'safest' areas of their homes to protect their savings from disappearing. Meanwhile, numerous social media users are sharing videos under the title 'methods that a thief wouldn't think of' to suggest potential hiding places for the gold. Here are the top 10 most secure hidden corners at home.
Storage methods that will transform your home into a veritable fortress!
Storing your accumulated gold or cash at home can sometimes prove to be more effective than a steel safe. Thieves typically focus on the most easily accessible places (drawers, under the pillow, jewelry boxes) within a certain timeframe. These areas primarily include drawers, under the pillow, and boxes. However, there are many spots within the house that are 'hidden in plain sight' and can even surprise professionals. Here are some creative storage methods that will transform your home into a veritable fortress.
10 Unconventional Methods for Storing Gold at Home!
1 Finished Cleaning Product Containers: After thoroughly washing and drying the inside of an empty laundry detergent container or surface cleaner bottle, you can stash your valuables in it. No one would bother stealing a container that appears to be filled with 'detergent'.
2 Fake Compartment in the Flower Pot: Place a waterproof container beneath the soil of your live plant. However, be careful; it's best to secure it at the very bottom of the pot, away from the drainage holes.
3 Inside Children's Toys: Stuffed teddy bears or lego storage boxes are among the last places thieves would think to look for valuable items.
4 Packages in the Deep Freezer: Place your valuables in a vacuum-sealed bag and put it in a package labeled 'peas' or 'minced meat' in the freezer. They won't be affected by the cold and no one checks the vegetables in the freezer.
5 Fake Cans in the Kitchen Cabinet: 'Fake canned goods' with removable bottoms are available on the market. However, you can also create your own at home using an old legume jar that appears full but is actually a hidden compartment.
6 Old Electrical Outlets: A non-functioning outlet box that's merely a decorative piece on the wall makes for an excellent hidden compartment.
7 Behind the Baseboards: By making some of the baseboards in the corners of rooms removable, you can utilize the space behind them.
8 Not Old Shoe Boxes, but the Shoes Themselves: Boxes are checked, but the underside of the lining of an old, worn-out boot sitting by the door is usually overlooked.
9 Pipe-Like Hidden Compartments in the Bathroom: A fake PVC pipe that looks like it's part of the plumbing under the sink but isn't actually connected to anything can even deceive professional thieves.
10 Book-Like Safes: If your library is crowded, placing your valuables inside a hollowed-out book is a classic yet still effective method.
