"SafeStreets security system is incredibly reliable and easy to use. The app is intuitive, and the home automation features are a game-changer. I love being able to monitor my home from anywhere. Great service all around."
"ADT has exceeded my expectations! The system is reliable, the app is easy to use, and the customer service team is always helpful. I appreciate the environmental monitoring features, which go beyond just security. Knowing my home is protected 24/7 is priceless. I highly recommend ADT to anyone looking for a trustworthy security provider."
"For Security Systems, this is the place to go. Yes, I had ADP quote my project, but Modern Tech was by far the best option. Not only is it a local company, but the professionalize, value and price made it an easy decision, plus there was not a three year contract! Robert was the installer and he was fabulous at explaining options (personalized to what I needed) and how everything worked. He was also very responsive to the follow-up questions I had. I highly recommend using this company for your surveillance and alarm system needs."
"Jack and Eric at Vantage Security Installation went above and beyond from the initial consultation to the final walkthrough. They took the time to explain all of my options clearly, helped me choose the best setup for my home, and worked efficiently on installation day. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking to get security cameras!"
"Wonderful, smooth experience with a true pro - Faisal met our needs and went beyond our expectations for servicing this contract! I would highly recommend this company for security camera systems and access control - we are very pleased with both systems at two locations!"
"We recently needed to upgrade our home s WiFi coverage to get us the bandwidth necessary for multiple home security cameras. Anthony came out to my home, free of charge, to assess our situation and give us a quote. The proposed solution and the quote were both great. What s more, Anthony was super patient with me as I asked lots of neurotic follow-up questions by email. On the day of the project, he came with a partner, calling about 45 minutes ahead to let us know his ETA. He and his partner were both courteous and respectful, and they both wore masks without me having to ask (this work took place in the age of COVID-19). Partway through the project, I threw in some last minute thoughts about a new TV antenna and Anthony graciously agreed to do that work the same day, for a very fair price. At the end of the project we realized that part of the WiFi system did not quite meet my initial expectations for specifications. Not a deal breaker, but also not what we were expecting. Anthony acknowledged the discrepancy and provided a fair discount to make up for it. The job he did was completed safely, and they made it look very clean in the end. When you re poking holes in walls, you always want to make sure it looks professional when all is said and done. Anthony nailed it. I m very happy with the service I received and I would work with Digital Concepts again in the future, should such needs arise."

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.
Yes, most pros encourage you to change your locks when you move into a new home. While the previous owner may hand you their keys, you have no way of knowing whether other copies exist elsewhere. Changing your locks as soon as you move in is a great way to ensure that you can enjoy new, fully functioning locks that will work with your unique key or code.
Faulty sensors, weak signals, false alarms, and control panel malfunctions are common problems requiring repair.
Home security cameras typically do not record continuously 24/7. Most options use motion detection technology to trigger recording when they sense movement or a significant change in their field of view. This approach conserves storage space and reduces the need for constant monitoring. When motion is detected, the camera starts recording and may send alerts to the homeowner. However some cameras offer the option for continuous recording, but this requires substantial storage capacity and may overwrite older footage when space runs out.
Smart deadbolts are a worthwhile investment for homeowners seeking more convenience, flexibility, and advanced features than a traditional deadbolt can provide. While a strong conventional deadbolt offers sufficient security for most, smart deadbolts provide significant upgrades.
Key benefits include keyless entry via smartphone, keypads, or biometric sensors, and the ability to lock or unlock your door remotely. You can also manage access for guests by creating temporary codes, eliminating the need for physical keys and the risk of them being lost or duplicated. Many models integrate with smart home systems and offer features like automatic locking, entry-exit monitoring, and tamper alerts with encryption for enhanced security.
However, there are downsides to consider. Smart deadbolts are more expensive than their traditional counterparts and rely on batteries and wireless networks to function. This dependency introduces potential vulnerabilities, such as hacking by skilled intruders and privacy concerns. Installation can also be more complex. Despite these drawbacks, the added layer of convenience and protection makes them a compelling option for many.
