"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!"

Customers say: Quick response

"I needed a tripod mast installed on my roof for a home weather station. Digital Concepts came out and did a professional installation. The next day, the anemometer measured 94 mph in a severe windstorm. Two weeks later, it measured 100 mph during the Marshall Fire windstorm. Unfortunately, my home was lost in the fire, but these measurements were invaluable in documenting the ferocity of these windstorms in the Sagamore neighborhood. The installation held up."

"Both my husband and I enjoyed working with Luke. He took time to listen to what we wanted and answer questions. He even provided information that helped settle a bit of confusion we had about placement of the fence. He built the fence to be super durable against kids and kept the safety of both our children and pet in mind during the construction. I do plan on using them in the future for further home repair/renovation."

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts

Security experts recommend deadbolt locks as the most secure option for a house's exterior or entry doors. Deadbolts provide the best security because they can prevent most types of forced entry and are harder to lockpick. Common types include the standard single-cylinder deadbolt, which is often found on front doors. For enhanced security, you can opt for a double-cylinder deadbolt, which requires a key to operate from both the inside and the outside.

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 average cost to install a home security system is about $750. However, the price can range from as little as $200 for a simple wireless camera setup to $2,000 for a fully monitored, hardwired system. A typical price range is $280 to $1,150. Several factors determine the final cost, including the type of system, equipment, materials, labor, activation fees, monthly surveillance fees, and permits. Optional upgrades will also add to the price, such as video surveillance monitoring ($40–$65 per month), smart locks ($150), smart lighting ($15–$90), smart smoke and carbon monoxide alarms ($35–$100), and a smart thermostat ($130–$500).

Understanding the pros and cons of installing a home security system is the first step to deciding which one is right for you. A few of the advantages and disadvantages include:

Pros

  • Added security for your household

  • Reduced home insurance premiums

  • Many smart home integrations available

  • Security companies can monitor your home 

Cons

  • Expensive setup costs 

  • Subscription costs can add up quickly

  • Features may be vulnerable to hackers

  • Weak signal reduces the security of a wireless system

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.
