"SafeStreets’ alarm system is fantastic. The motion sensors, door/window contacts, and cameras work flawlessly. The home automation features are a huge plus—I can control everything from my phone. Highly recommend SafeStreets to anyone looking for reliable security."
"Last weekend had someone pry our side door open to our exterior garage and the ADT door sensor picked it up immediately. The alarm siren was loud and scared the person off. Someone from the response center called within 30 seconds. We’re fortunate that the security system did what it is supposed to. Feels like we made the right call going with an ADT security system."
"I was hopeful when I first met Marco. He responded to my inquiry very quickly and came over right away. I have a small leak above one of our windows (on the inside) that I wanted to fix. Wasn't sure if it was dry rot or caulking, the gutter, or roof possibly. He came over and assured me that it was only the paint and caulking and that it was a very easy fix. They scraped off some old paint and sealed the area, as well as caulked around the window. They also fixed a small piece of wood that had come away from the house. They told me, with confidence, that everything was all set and would be good. However, when it rained a few hours later, the leak was still there, just as bad as before. He had mentioned fitting me in while he was in the middle of a job, and I'm afraid he rushed through the job just go get it done, so I'm not sure he properly assessed the problem to find the right solution. When I texted him the following day saying the leak, he texted me back "must be the roof then, i think you have to call a roofer to fix that, i don't do roof work". I know that our roof is in very good order, and it was disconcerting that the work he was confident was easy and finished was not only incorrectly assessed, but also out of his realm to fix. Unfortunately, I still have a leak to fix and I'm hoping that the work he did didn't create more work for the contractor who will end up having to fix the problem. He did fix our front door to shut properly, but it took me checking and re-checking it in order for it to be done properly.

"Delivery was delayed due to credit inquiry. After the concern was raised, shipment was rushed to us. Self installation didn't go as easy. Issue was resolved over the phone. The glass break sensor was a bit sensitive to loud noise such as cabinet door closing and door sensor repeatedly falls off and had to be reattached. Notification of alarm activation was fast and made to the right contact numbers. This prevented false alarm calls to the police."
"Very professional. George walked us through the process the day before. On installation day, Robert went over the whole process step by step. The crew were very attentive and courteous. Appreciate the job that was done at my house. I strongly recommend LA Security Cameras"
"I switched from another company to Security One, they use the same equipment. They had to come out and recode everything. I simply switched because of the financial benefit. I have only had them for a few months, and I haven't had any problems with them. They save me some money every month. When my alarm went off, they did call me."
"Nice work. door works great. Only issue was that installer didn't know I had prepaid for the coupon. Would have been nice if the office had told him."
"CSI Secure Solutions were very prompt with their communication. The information given was what I requested. I found this investigative service very helpful and very professional. I would definitely use again in the future. "

Leaving a light on at night probably does not deter burglars as much as we would like. While there isn’t much evidence supporting the theory that lights deter burglars, there’s not anything disproving it either. If you feel like it offers added security because a burglar thinks you’re at home, then you can set your lights to a timer so they go off and on at intervals, mimicking someone moving around inside the house at night. A better idea is to install motion sensor lights in your yard.
Window security film won’t prevent break-ins or stop your window from shattering from impact during extreme weather like hurricanes or tornadoes. However, applying security film is relatively inexpensive, and it can make breaking into your home significantly harder—often hard enough to deter burglars entirely—and keep your window from shattering on your floor after impact. For these reasons, window security film is often a worthwhile investment that helps protect your property.
Expect to spend an average of $150 to $500 to set up a home flood detection system. However, be aware that costs are wide-ranging.

The purchase and professional installation of a whole-home protection system with water shutoff capabilities could cost between $500 and $1,000.
