"We moved down here a little over 4 months ago. We found Colorado Complete Security n HomeAdvisor. Stuart and Matt really know there stuff. They let us know the day before they were coming, they were on time, explained what they were doing, gave us ideas on things we could do different in the house, very personable. We re definitely having them back to do some upgrading on some outdated things and things done a little Mickey . We had them fix our phone lines because we found out we didn t have a working land line. They also do surround sound, internet, security, etc... I would give them over a 5 star rating if there was such a thing. Doug and Kathy"

"I was fortunate to discover Frontline when I investigated companies that could install security cameras at my Boulder,Colorado, office building. They were quick to respond to my inquiry, they did several walk-throughs to verify the job, and their installation was quick and without problems. Considering that we were a project with 20 cameras in a 4-story building plus exterior locations, the cost of their project was very reasonable. Plus, their products and technology are state of the art. I highly recommend Frontline for any company or residence that requires reliable, effective security camera protection."

"I called two Electricians from Angie's List on Saturday, March 2, 2013, and did not feel comfortable with their responses after I explained that my circuit breaker tripped and I lost power on one side of my master bedroom and bathroom. I called DR Electric on Monday morning, March 4, 2013, and explained my problem. Tony informed me that Rick who is the Master Electrician could be at my home the same morning between 10:00 am and 12 noon. When Rick arrived at 10:00 am, he was very thorough with explaining and repairing the problem, which he did not charge for the service. In addition, my fire alarm system went off twice within 1 month, which I had to called the fire department to check and see if there was a carbon monoxide problem. When the fire department is called for carbon monoxide, the utilities company must also come to the house to check for carbon monoxide. The Utilities company informed me that the duel fire and carbon monoxide alarms are very sensitive and they had responded to numerous carbon monoxide false alarms in the area. The Utilities company recommended that I separate the fire alarms and have a carbon monoxide alarm on each floor. The utilities company also recommended which fire and carbon monoxide alarms to purchase. In addition, the area which I live there has been several homes which has been struck by lighting so I was interested in the whole house power surge. Rick explained how the whole house surge protector works along with the different systems and warranties. On Wednesday, March 6, 2013, Rick installed the whole house surge protector; Tony replaced my fire alarm system and placed the carbon monoxide on each floor . They both explained the work they completed and was very professional. I would definitely hire this company again for other electric work. I do plan on having some other electrical work done in the future. I will definitely recommend this company to my friends and neighbors. "
"Everyone was very helpful with our needs as well as the professionalism displayed while they mounted the camera's and put in the alarm system. Awesome techs and Zane was on point in making sure everyone was on time as well as scheduling when we were able to be home. Couldn't asked for better service."
Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts
Ultimately, the decision should align with your objectives. For general home security, visible cameras at entry points and high-traffic areas are recommended to deter intruders. In areas where privacy is a concern, use hidden cameras sparingly and within legal limits.
You likely can reset your house alarm without the code, but it depends on many factors like how it’s wired and whether or not there’s a default reset code. Most companies make bypassing a security alarm without entering your code challenging to prevent burglars from simply resetting the alarm during a break-in. Your best bet is to contact your alarm company directly to get specialized support for your situation.
But, while you wait for support, you can disconnect it from the power source to stop the alarm from going off.
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.

Technically, there isn't a difference between safe rooms and storm shelters. Both are designed to protect you from storms and extreme weather events. People often use “safe room” when discussing a shelter inside a building and storm shelter when talking about a detached unit.
Additionally, a safe room is understood to have more functions than a storm shelter. You may seek shelter in a safe room when you believe an intruder is in the home or when under another type of threat.
