"Mark responded to my request in 3 minutes. He visited the following day. He corrected my security system on that visit allowing me to leave home for a trip the next day. I was satisfied that he understood his craft and did the work in the time projected. I would use him again and recommend his services strongly."

"I was looking online for all sorts of home security systems and I found Frontpoint. I called Frontpoint to as for a quote for a home security system set. Ashley Anderson from Frontpoint is friendly and professional. She is also very patient when we had several emails going back and forth because I had lot of questions. When she heard that I am a Angieslist member, she recommend me going with the existing Angieslist package and said I will be able to save money that way. I purchased the package over Angieslist and Ashley helped me with the rest of the process. The package was delivered to my house and I called in Frontpoint to have it set up over the phone. The staff (I can't remember his name...) was extremely helpful and patient. I love feature of being about to control the security system with my cell phone. I will definitely recommend Frontpoint to another family or friends! Thank you Ashley and thank you Frontpoint!"

"We couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. Steve was able to come out on the day that we called; was prompt, professional and was able to diagnose and repair our legacy Ademco alarm system in relatively short order. Will definitely use again. Highly recommended."

"They system was installed for the basic, but anything that you wanted needed to be higher upgraded require alot of extra money for every upgrade.
 The 36.99 monthly fee was for only if your system is connected to a landline. I didnnt notice that they charge me $44.99 until my 1st month fee. Thats when I was told that they charge $44.99 because the alram was connected to my cable line instead. I was unaware of the different charges. When tec came out he didnt show up to fix the corrected. Had to call the main company for the no show. So they schedule another appointment and offered 2 window alarms to fix the correction but my bill still is $44.99. Default is that since I didnt have extra money to upgrade to the Pulse, you dont know if you turn the alarm to your house properly. I called the 800 number and they cant tell either!

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts

Each has its use, depending on the scenario. Security doors are primarily intended to keep people out of the home, while storm doors are used to protect the home from extreme weather. Both tend to be made from heavy-duty metal and may include glass panels to allow light to enter the home. Storm doors can feature mesh screens, just like screen doors, to allow for increased ventilation and to keep out pests. Security doors rarely, if ever, have mesh screens.

Yes, you can install a home security system in an old house. In fact, you can install a security system in any home. Some wiring may need to be added, but most home security systems do not require a lot of additional wiring. Wireless security systems can easily be installed with minimal additional wiring, if any at all. Most wireless security systems can be monitored and controlled from your smartphone, and the cameras and sensors operate on batteries.

The cost of home automation averages around $1,000, with most projects falling between $200 and $2,000. The total cost depends on several factors, including the level of automation, brand, system features, home size, and location. For a DIY approach, basic home automation technology can cost between $100 and $500, though the scope and interaction between products may be limited. High-end, all-inclusive systems for larger homes can cost anywhere from $10,000 to $150,000, especially when they include smart appliances like refrigerators and dishwashers that require extensive wiring. Additional costs, such as subscriptions for maintenance services, can also impact the total price. It's often helpful to set a budget and consult with an expert to determine the best options for your home.

Professional home automation services can include automation for nearly anything in your home, so the possibilities are endless. Some of the more common things homeowners use automation for include the following:

  • Heating and cooling for automatic comfort

  • Security cameras and emergency call systems

  • Door and window sensors to detect opening, closing, and break-ins

  • Solar system automation to maximize energy savings

  • Automatic door locks

  • Garage door openers

  • Speaker systems

  • Lighting

  • Appliances

  • Smoke and CO detectors

  • Blinds and other window coverings

  • Lawn irrigation systems

  • Water monitoring
