Choosing a Home Security System

One of the best ways to protect your property from intruders, vandalism and theft is with a home security system. Choosing the one that best suits your needs can help ensure safety and give you peace of mind.

Operating Your Home Security System

Installation

Many DIY systems come pre-programmed and even have peel-and-stick equipment for ease of installation. However, professional installers are security experts who know how to maximize your protection.

Monitoring

Professional monitoring is costlier than self-monitoring because it automatically alerts authorities if an alarm is triggered and offers greater protection than a DIY system, which typically relies on phone alerts. Additionally, a monitored system might even save you money on your homeowners insurance. Expect to pay monthly or annual fees, and be mindful that contract lengths can range from monthly to multi-year agreements.
