"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."

"Project went well, and one snag (related to a supplier) was addressed very well. Crew was polite, efficient, really did a nice job. Windows and door look great, and are now storm damage resistent. Thanks guys!"
"Sam went above and beyond. He suggested (without pressuring) upgrading my phone, cable and internet cabinet to be more modular and add backup. Work was professional and reasonably priced. Sam really knows his stuff; after my next phase of home improvement, I’m bringing him back to install a security system!"
"Iwas pleased with their professionalle handling. They knew what they were doing and explained it to me and did it. They will come back and checking that the sutters are still secure. I trust them after talking to them and the workers they sent were excellent. i was impressed."
"David arrived on time with his showroom trailer so we could see the different types of shutters, how they operate, and how they look installed. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He explained how he would deal with a couple of difficulties during the installation, and was able to cover all our windows and doors. A salesperson from a competitor told me to skip the front door because it was too difficult to install?! The installation was flawless and the two men were fantastic!! I felt the price was reasonable."
"I dealt with the owner, Craig Hill, who was a very personable and knowledgeable about the styles and types of hurricane protection and their respective pros and cons. After contacting other installers, I was pleased with Craig's fair price, his promptness (only 2 weeks from my order to installation!) and he and his workers continued on the job until it was completed. There were absolutely no problems during installation, and they left the area very clean and in tip-top shape. They were very professional and I highly recommend his company and their work. I love my shutters. They are beautiful and very functional. Thanks, Craig!!!"

Yes, it’s possible a burglar can get through a deadbolt. Some types of deadbolts are harder for an intruder to get through, though. For example, a single-cylinder lock only requires breaking a window nearby and simply turning it. While other locks, such as a double-cylinder lock, may offer greater protection and make it harder for an intruder, no deadbolt is 100 percent effective.
A deadbolt differs from a regular lock in its design, construction, and security level. Regular locks are typically used for interior doors, such as for bedrooms and bathrooms, and provide minimal security. They are easy to install and use, often featuring a simple locking mechanism on the inside. In contrast, a deadbolt is one of the most secure locks you can install on an exterior door. Its internal construction is designed to withstand significant force, adding a crucial layer of security that can deter intruders. While deadbolts may be more expensive and complicated to install, they are cost-effective for the security they provide and are built to hold up to wear and tear.
Expect to spend an average of $150 to $500 to set up a home flood detection system. However, be aware that costs are wide-ranging. You might only spend a budget-friendly $50 to place basic, battery-operated sensors in a few key areas of your home, or $150 to set up two or three smart sensors. The purchase and professional installation of a whole-home protection system with water shutoff capabilities could cost between $500 and $1,000.
Window security film won’t prevent break-ins or stop your window from shattering from impact during extreme weather like hurricanes or tornadoes. However, applying security film is relatively inexpensive, and it can make breaking into your home significantly harder—often hard enough to deter burglars entirely—and keep your window from shattering on your floor after impact. For these reasons, window security film is often a worthwhile investment that helps protect your property.
Homeowners insurance can be voided in several scenarios. That can include making too many claims in a short period of time, leaving a home vacant for an extended period of time, renting out a home or room illegally, using a home as a business illegally, and any kind of criminal activity connected to the home.
