"Home security has never been my favourite topics, at first a bit confusing there's network apps, motion sensors and connected door alarms all of which seem to work flawlessly together. We called two places ADT Authorized Dealer - Safe Haven and New Security INC. Bill Wood from ADT Authorized Dealer approached us in August 2019 after buying new house. Many of us have had that one teacher who makes it all click together they are often energetic and fun seemingly always at the top of their game. Bill's smile, genuine personality and willingness to teach difficult subjects to us made him the clear choice a 2nd time this summer when we installed ADT. We feel great knowing who to call and who to let in our house when we needed them. Communicating via text message and follow ups afterwards were "Better than Expected"! Thank You ADT Authorized Dealer - Safe Haven."
"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!"

"When we started looking into businesses to replace our windows and doors and add shutters to our house, we were met with many different choices. However, what stood out for us was the family atmosphere and ultimately the business demeanor that we found in Armored Dade. From the initial phone call to the meeting with Mr. Perkins to give us a quote for our new items, it was as if it were meant to be. I did not feel obligated to hire this company- more like proud to do so. I even looked into reviews from other homeowners and realized that this coming could be trusted but only to put in new windows, doors, and add shutters, but, to be trusted in my house with my family - and children- there. So thank you Armored Dads for the amazing Windows, doors and shutters and for also having a sense of family within your business."
"I can’t say enough good things about AGT — from the beginning, they’ve been absolutely amazing to work with. They’ve been incredibly responsive, flexible, and quick throughout the entire process, and they always take the time to answer all of my questions. They even worked with me to get an amazing deal on some upgrades! The crew they sent out to install my new windows and sliding glass doors was also amazing. They showed up on time, were professional, friendly, and genuinely a pleasure to have in my home. It’s refreshing to work with a company that truly cares about its customers and makes the entire experience so easy and stress-free. I’m so happy I chose AGT and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for new windows or doors. If you’re considering working with them, do it!"

"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."

Smart deadbolts are a worthwhile investment for homeowners seeking more convenience, flexibility, and advanced features than a traditional deadbolt can provide. While a strong conventional deadbolt offers sufficient security for most, smart deadbolts provide significant upgrades.
Key benefits include keyless entry via smartphone, keypads, or biometric sensors, and the ability to lock or unlock your door remotely. You can also manage access for guests by creating temporary codes, eliminating the need for physical keys and the risk of them being lost or duplicated. Many models integrate with smart home systems and offer features like automatic locking, entry-exit monitoring, and tamper alerts with encryption for enhanced security.
However, there are downsides to consider. Smart deadbolts are more expensive than their traditional counterparts and rely on batteries and wireless networks to function. This dependency introduces potential vulnerabilities, such as hacking by skilled intruders and privacy concerns. Installation can also be more complex. Despite these drawbacks, the added layer of convenience and protection makes them a compelling option for many.
Options include wired or wireless systems with night vision and motion detection.
Changing the alarm in your wireless security system is a perfectly reasonable DIY task that most people can complete on their own. Simply open the system’s control panel, remove the existing battery, and replace it with a new one. If you’re using a wired system, this may require disconnecting and reconnecting both the positive and negative wires attached to the battery, and you may want to call in a professional to help.
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.
If you want to make more home security upgrades to your perimeter, consider installing a smart automatic gate opener and a security camera. These will allow you to see who’s at the gate and open it for them (or not). You can learn how to install an automatic gate opener yourself or hire a professional for a little extra.
