"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."
"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."
"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."
"We like their service. We haven't had any problems. They are very good. This was the first time we've had an alarm/security system in our home. The supplier is ADT. I like that I can set my alarm every night before I go to bed."
"Aaron completed exterior painting, cleaned up wiring, installed an interior fire door, refit interior doors so they would no longer stick, replaced putty on exterior windows, and other misc jobs. On time, professional, up front and honest about costs. Quality of work is excellent. Gets the job done promptly, is very knowledgeable, and is easy to work with. Prices are fair and reasonable. Will definitely continue using his services and would have no problem recommending."
"First the good: The up front cost cant be beat since all of the sensors and control panel were no cost to cover 20 doors and windows. Installation was pretty straight forward and the phone reps were fairly knowledgeable and professional. I added a couple features like an extra key pad, siren and glass break sensors that cost aprox $350. The extras were a little pricey but compared to the $2000 another provided quoted, it was still a deal. The control panel is cellular based so cutting your phone lines will not effect the alarm. Now the not so good: The quality of the sensors has not been very good. I have had 2 DOA when the packages arrived new and 2 failed within several days. When I contacted Protect America they were very nice about sending me new ones, but it took weeks and a couple calls before I saw the first replacements. The second set of replacements that arrived for the failed units ended up being the wrong sensors. Their shipping department does not seem to have good quality control. The next very annoying element is the wait time on the phone when you are trying to get anything set up. I spent a couple hours on hold working through the set up the first time and at least an hour the second time when I installed the replacement sensors. Some cautions; make sure you hide the main control panel because if an intruder disables it before the alarm has sounded for 60 seconds, the police may not be notified. Also they only call to check if everything is ok if the alarm is not canceled for 60 seconds. So you can not be sure if the signal is getting through. Monthly monitoring fee is high, but since the system was intially free, even after 3 years it is still the cheaper route. Now that I have the equipment, once our contract is expired I will find a different alarm provider that responds to every alarm. "
"One of my gated doors was stuck so they fixed it. They said something was wrong with the turning mechanism. I thought the deal would cover the service but it was just to have the locksmith come to look at what needed to be done. They did a fine job."

The best window alarm sensor depends on the type of window you’re concerned about since different types of sensors will work best in different scenarios. Many homes are equipped with contact sensors, which trigger an alarm when a window is opened, and each part of the sensor breaks contact with the other. But there are other options, too, like a glass break sensor or motion sensor, which both work well for windows that are in low-traffic areas.
Faulty sensors, weak signals, false alarms, and control panel malfunctions are common problems requiring repair.
While many security cameras rely on an internet connection to transmit footage and store it in the cloud, not all of them stop working when the Wi-Fi is off. Some models are designed to function offline by using local storage options, such as a microSD card or a network-attached storage (NAS) device. These cameras can continue to record footage even without an internet connection. You can then access the stored data once the Wi-Fi is restored.
