Security blinds are important and studies show window blinds can play a major role in home security. According the the FBI, in 2005, law enforcement agencies reported an estimated 2,154,126 burglary offenses. That is almost 6000 burglaries per day and over 4 burglaries per second (based on FBI 2005 crime report).
Here are some quotes from other sources on home security and window blinds:
view aricle
Window blinds and shades can be used to make your home lived in. Venetian blinds are good because they can be tilted to allow light in but still block the view of the valuables inside.
Garage and shed windows should also be covered with security blinds or coverings. Blocking the view to anything a burglar would want to take will reduce the chance of burglary.
When you are away it is best to make your home appear that someone is still there.
