"Nash and Miranda spent a week in our home completing an extensive whole-house electrical restoration and honestly became part of the family. They corrected electrical issues, replaced switches and outlets, brought smoke detectors up to code, installed whole-house surge protection, and left us with a clean, clearly labeled panel. Nash explained what he was doing throughout the job and coordinated power outages around two of us working remotely, so we could continue living and working normally. He also traced and explained confusing circuits in our older country home and answered every question we had. They were friendly, respectful, kept us informed, cleaned up after the work, and even earned the approval of our dogs and cats! Most importantly, I feel safer in our home. We wanted the electrical system corrected properly and brought up to code with no shortcuts, and that is exactly what we received. We would absolutely call Integra again."

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts

You should be able to use your smart doorbell and access your video feed without a subscription. Subscriptions give you special features, such as night vision, downloading, and automatically saving footage for a set amount of days. It’s a good idea to compare plans among different providers before you commit. 

Your best bet is to install a bracket that secures to the bottom of the unit and the side of your house. You should still secure the AC unit in the open window using some of the other methods already listed, but a bracket is best to ensure that it stays put—both during operation and in case of an attempted theft.

This is the topic of much debate, though there is no “better,” as it depends on personal preferences. Some of the components of a wireless system keep working when the power goes out, as they are battery-powered. On the other hand, a wireless system typically connects to your modem and router. Wired systems use landlines to communicate, which never go out on their own unless they’re physically cut.

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.

A steel door that's been toughened up with extra materials creates the perfect barrier. These bad boys are way stronger than your typical wooden or fiberglass doors, making them a fantastic choice for folks who want that extra layer of security for their homes. So, if you're all about keeping things super secure, a reinforced steel door will cost you more, but it is your best bet.
