In the home is not enough just to maintain a regular cleaning schedule, there are some precautions that say a lot of people living in it. Here I suggest some steps you can take periodically to make sure your house is in perfect condition. Start with the lobby or entrance of the house.

Light 
Check if the lights are powerful enough for the area to be illuminated, if blown bulbs, if well designed, ensures that there is no dark corners that may lead to setbacks.
You can create light effects by installing different types of bulbs, lamps, ceiling, etc.., which can help conceal very narrow corridors, for example.
If you have an excessively long corridor would be desirable to install two switches, one at each end.

Doors
It is appropriate that the living room doors are open or ajar, as it gives a feeling of welcome.
If you have a bathroom at the entrance of your house the door should always be closed.
If there is danger of slamming the doors should always have a fastening point or wedge.
