helps prevent crimes of opportunity

Download on the App Store

Police departments across the country post every night to remind people to do the 9PM Routine.  

The #9PMRoutine is a movement that is supported by police forces across the world. People are encouraged to follow a routine checklist every night to double check their property is locked up and safe. Property crimes are often crimes of opportunity and important details like locking doors and turning on lights can deter criminals.

Follow this checklist every evening before you go to bed to protect your property
- Turn on outside lights at night
- Lock your doors
- Put away toys and bikes in a locked, safe location
- Put away tools when you're finished with them
- Put away outdoor equipment such as lawn mowers and weed trimmers
- Lock up off-highway vehicles (ATVs, dirt bikes, etc.)
- Double check vehicles are locked and keys are removed
- Double check that your garage, shed, or storage doors are closed and locked
- Set your home alarm (if you have one)

The idea of "9PM Routine" is to encourage people to take a few simple steps every night at 9 p.m. to help prevent theft and keep their homes and vehicles safe. Burglars are criminals of opportunity. The easier it is to burglarize your home without getting caught, the more likely they are to commit the crime. If you make burglarizing your house a bit more difficult, you reduce the likelihood of your house getting hit.
