More than half of all burglars walk straight through your door.

New Garda stats out today reveal the way people are most likely to get into your home.

Front doors, back doors and windows - if you're going to be broken into they're the most vulnerable spots in your house.

Today is National Crime Prevention Day and the Gardaí have released their figures to help us boost our safety.

A whopping 50 per cent of break-ins happen becuase thieves simply come in through the main entrance or exit.

Climbing in through a window accounts for another 28 per cent.

But the good news is that burglaries in general are down, dropping almost 9 per cent in 12 months.
