"Bryan D helped me with my new house alarm. Bryan was friendly and pleasant to work with. He took his time and listened to my needs for my desired level of security. (I am quite the paranoid person when it comes to home security!) He is extremely knowledgeable and was informative and thorough on all aspects of security, from the system functionality to do-it-yourself enhancements around my home. He gave me a ton of great advice and I feel 110% at ease with my security system! I highly recommend you work with Bryan at Alarm protect group!!"

"I HIGHLY recommend Jon and Dena. Their customer service throughout the process (consultation and installation) was stellar! They are very warm and understanding people who do not try to sell you on extra products. The men (Phil & Josh) that came to install the security system were prompt, professional and nice. They were very knowledgeable and TRUST WORTHY! I never write reviews but for this type of service and care, I had to come leave a comment about my experience with security and alert Corp. Iâ m very happy with the work done and how it was done! Thank you!"

"Dennis and his team were very professional and walked us through the whole process of installation. He gave great product recommendations on products and cameras that were best suited for our home. The quality of the cameras is top-notch. The work was done in a timely manner, and the installation was quick with great results. We absolutely love our home surveillance system and would highly recommend North Cal Security for home or business surveillance installation."

"My pro Sal was very efficient in clearing manifold problems. He was patient in listening when I was trying to explain the problems that I was having. I had made a list and we went through all of the conditions that were giving me grief. After a system reboot something strange having to do with the font occurred. I called Sal and he worked remotely going through changes that had been made. The problem was finally resolved. I was very pleased with Sal's ability to decipher what this layman (laywoman) was trying to say. If I have problems in the future, I will contact Sal."

"I cannot give Mark and the Dream Digital AV team enough high praise. My home theater system was experiencing major problems; so I contacted Dream Digital to see if they could help. From the get go, it was obvious that Mark was extremely trustworthy and had my best interests in mind. Before he recommended a relatively costly, in person service call, he took the time to troubleshoot the issue over the phone. We talked multiple times as we tried one recommendation after another so we could get to the root of the problem. Due to his vast experience and knowledge, he was able to figure out what was wrong and help me fix the issue myself. Now he could have chosen not to do this, charging me more or even trying to sell me on upgrading my older stereo components, but he did not. He was just focused on helping me and for that I am extremely grateful. Needless to say, when it does come time to replace or upgrade the systems throughout my home, Dream Digital will be the first place I call."

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts

Several types of deadbolts are available, including single-cylinder, double-cylinder, rim, smart, and electronic deadbolt locks. The most common type found in U.S. homes is the single-cylinder deadbolt, which uses a key on the exterior and a thumb turn on the interior. A double-cylinder deadbolt features two locking mechanisms and requires a key to be operated from both the inside and the outside.

There is no “better” option, as it depends on your personal preferences and home’s needs. Wireless systems are much easier to install, making them DIY-friendly. Wired systems offer a more reliable connection that is not tied to a router, but they typically require professional installation.

Although some pet doors allow easier access for burglars or stray animals, there are ways to make pet doors more secure. To increase your home’s security, choose locking or electronically activated doors, use additional motion sensor security cameras, and install pet doors on a wall where door locking mechanisms are difficult to access.

The best type of deadbolt depends on your specific needs. If accessibility is your primary concern, a single-cylinder deadbolt is the easiest to operate. Mortise locks are likely the most secure type of deadbolt you can install, but single-cylinders combined with secondary locking mechanisms like vertical locks are also a great option. Smart locks will give you the most flexibility to open and close your locks whenever and wherever you need to. 

A home security system can be a worthwhile investment for several reasons. Financially, it may qualify you for a discount of up to 20% on your home insurance premiums, which can help offset the initial setup costs and any ongoing monitoring or subscription fees. For many, the primary benefit is the peace of mind that comes with enhanced security, especially for those living in areas with higher crime rates. Ultimately, whether a system is worth it depends on your personal preferences, the value of the assets you wish to protect, and your overall safety concerns.
