Consider keeping gold and jewellery in a safety deposit box. This can be in a bank.

If you prefer to keep the items at home, then invest in a good quality safe, which is secured to a brick wall or floor.

Store gold and jewellery in different locations in the house, but ensure that they are all in secure, protected areas.

Consider purchasing CCTV cameras that cover your property.
