"With crime and break-ins picking up around the city, we felt it was time to invest in home security. Using ADT for the entire process was excellent. They added an extra motion detector to our equipment package for being new customers. We also added the smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. All and all, a great overall security and automation system."

"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!"

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts

If you're wondering what you should do with your old security alarm system after installing a new one, one option is to properly dispose of it at an electronics collection facility. Otherwise, if your old system is still in good shape, you can also donate it for someone else to use in their home.

Yes, you can install a home security system in an old house. In fact, you can install a security system in any home. Some wiring may need to be added, but most home security systems do not require a lot of additional wiring. Wireless security systems can easily be installed with minimal additional wiring, if any at all. Most wireless security systems can be monitored and controlled from your smartphone, and the cameras and sensors operate on batteries.

Costs depend on system type, labor rates, and additional features like smart integration or professional monitoring.

Your best bet is to install a bracket that secures to the bottom of the unit and the side of your house. You should still secure the AC unit in the open window using some of the other methods already listed, but a bracket is best to ensure that it stays put—both during operation and in case of an attempted theft.

With the popularity of DIY security cameras and video surveillance systems, it’s important to understand the benefits and potential drawbacks to decide if it’s the right choice for you. Advantages and disadvantages include:

Pros

  • Video footage readily available

  • Reduced home insurance

  • Save on labor costs by installing security cameras yourself

  • Wireless systems are easy to move and set up

  • Monitor from your smartphone

  • Avoid false alarms

Cons

  • Features may be vulnerable to hackers

  • No direct link to authorities

  • Risk of installing the system improperly, reducing its effectiveness
