"Pro:
Universal came to our house within 4 hours of my call and was able to identify what was causing the hard-wired smoke detectors to go off in our house. The Electrician was very professional. He completed the job in less than an hour, identifying that an old security system was causing the problem. He then was able to seal off the smoke detector that was going off in just 5 minutes. We walked through our home trying to find any remaining smoke detectors for the electrician to seal off. He stated to me before he left that if I found anymore that we had missed, to just call and he would come back and complete the job.
Con:
I found one smoke detector that he had missed, and so called Universal to have the Electrician come back out and complete the job. The man I spoke to was very rude on the phone, and told me that the electrician did not have the "ok" to tell me that Universal would come back and "complete the job." The man on the phone told me that he would charge me an additional $70 for the Electrician to come back to my house for the 5 minutes that it would take to seal off the remaining smoke detector. While I do understand that their labor/time is money--I did not appreciate the rudeness displayed on the phone call, nor did I appreciate the quote of $70, which was the same amount I paid for the original visit, which included much more than the 5 minutes to seal off a smoke detector. I will not be using this company again.

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts

Whether a security system or security cameras is a better choice for you depends on your needs and preferred comfort level. A security system can cost more depending on the features you choose, but it’s a more proactive and protective approach to home security by alerting you and authorities of any emergencies. Using a security camera system is a more reactive approach because while you can monitor the camera footage, it does not alert the proper authorities for you.

A potential weak link in any security system is poor connection strength or dropped signals, particularly in the case of a fully wireless system. You also want to ensure a reliable connection to get a hold of your service provider quickly. Also, you should exercise caution when handing out sign-in credentials to people outside the household.

Any type of dead bolt lock provides the highest level of safety for a single device. However, it’s also important to determine a lock's grade. Locks can come in either Grade 1, Grade 2, or Grade 3, which indicates how durable it is and if it’s constructed solidly. Safety experts recommend choosing locks based on Grade 1, which offers the highest level of durability.

It depends on your specific needs. A security system typically includes alarms, sensors for windows and doors , and 24/7 monitoring services, offering comprehensive protection with immediate response to potential threats. Cameras, on the other hand, primarily provide visual surveillance and evidence collection. A security system is preferable if your primary concern is deterring intruders and receiving real-time alerts. Cameras are ideal for monitoring and recording activities but might offer a different level of active protection. In many cases, a combination of both—a security system with integrated cameras—provides the most robust home security solution, offering prevention and documentation.

You don’t need to completely revamp your security system constantly, but it’s a great idea to give it a once-over every year. Look for potential upgrades or new features—like smart home tech or replacing outdated equipment—that could boost your safety. If you make any significant changes, let your insurer know as they may adjust your discounts to reflect your improved security. Staying on top of your security not only keeps your home safe but ensures you’re getting the best possible rate on your insurance.
