"SafeStreets’ alarm system is fantastic. The motion sensors, door/window contacts, and cameras work flawlessly. The home automation features are a huge plus—I can control everything from my phone. Highly recommend SafeStreets to anyone looking for reliable security."
"Assured Storm Protection recently completed the installation at my Coral Springs home of ES impact windows and doors. Entire process from meeting with Sales through final inspection went very smoothly...on schedule. Very happy that I went with this company, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in the area looking to install hurricane protection."
"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."
"Guinn & Sons replaced all of our windows and doors with impact at my house. I am pretty picky so they took the time to explain the options and products to ensure I was happy. Very communicative from start to finish and we love how everything turned out. They kept everything clean during installation too. I’m a realtor in Miami and I refer all my clients to them, and everyone has been very happy! I highly recommend them."
"They replaced the windows and 3 doors in my house with impact glass and made an enclosure with an accordion. Thanks to Salvatore's advice, we are now protected for the hurricane season. 100% recommended, super professional and responsible."
"Our family's home was in need of protection before hurricane season came around and after calling and meeting with a few companies, we were impressed by Sergio and his knowledge of the various types of hurricane protection. He explained the pros/cons for each and gave us a competitive and fair price. Equally, we were impressed with Calleja Shutter's workmanship and customer service. Sergio kept us informed all the way through the process and his manufacturing/installation estimate was on-point and the whole house was installed in a day. It then passed the county inspection with flying colors a couple days later. Great experience as well with Alexis the installer, he truly gave it his all in this installation and finished by nightfall. We easily recommend Calleja Shutters for anyone looking to secure there home or business with top-quality accordion shutter or hurricane windows. Thank you Sergio!"
"Angelo was great! He arrived early, was an absolute pro installing the new front door locks and handles and even fixed a few issues that had been there for years! Definitely will recommend Broward Property Maintenance as a great experience!!"
"Family Shutters owner Rene arrived at my home the next day after my initial contact to Family Shutters. Family Shutters made & installed a new accordion shutter to cover a glass block area at my house entrance in a timely manner. This new shutter secured me an A3 rating for my new Homeowners policy with AAA. I also hired Family Shutters to replace my old locks on all my accordion house shutters.Also they serviced my shutters to ensure I am ready for next hurricane season. Rene’s company workers completed my requests promptly in caring respectful manner."

You should always install cameras at exterior doors and windows. Other areas where you should place cameras are your front and back yards, the garage and driveway, common living areas, hallways and staircases, and the basement. Remember, you can start with a small Wi-Fi security camera system and always add more cameras if needed.
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.
