"We wanted to get on board with the current trend in doorbell cameras. Got a quote from ADT Provider, known as Safe Street USA, and felt their offer was more than fair. We have door sensors and motion detectors inside and the doorbell camera mounted outside. Nice to feel “with the times” in home automation and security."

"Protect Your Home group with ADT has exceeding our expectations in getting a new home security system. In the end, everything was a breeze and not stressful whatsoever. We tested the siren and our neighbors 2 doors down could hear it; which is what we were hoping for!"

"I live in a small condo building that has been the target of repeated criminal damage to property. After three cinderblocks were thrown through my windows I got the security screens installed. The screens are very aesthetic to the eye and I have received compliments on how nice they look. More importantly though, they have kept myself and my property safe. Two more cinderblocks have been thrown at the windows and caused no damage because of the screens. A week ago the criminal targeting the building set off an m80 firework at our front door and the door was destroyed. Last week an m80 was jammed into the window panel near my bedroom window and set off. One window behind the screens did get blown up but the screens remained perfectly in tact. Pieces of concrete were blown off the building from the explosion but again, no damage to the screens. These are very heavy duty and they work. Scott has been a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend Midwest Security Screens to anyone looking to make their home or business more secure. When I move in the near future I will have security screens installed on my new home. Thank you for helping keep me safe!"

Security Doors questions, answered by experts

A study from the University of North Carolina found that security system signs were one of the top ten deterrents for burglars when choosing a target, so they do have some effect. However, you can get into legal trouble for putting up fake signage, so it’s best only to put up signs when you have the alarms to back them up.

The main difference between different security sensor options is the type of motion each detects. A motion detector monitors obvious movements in hallways, entrances, and exits. On the other hand, a presence detector is more sensitive and captures smaller moves. A window sensor typically focuses on the opening and closing of the window, whereas a glass break sensor alarms you when a glass is broken.

In general, keyless door locks are considered safe, and their security depends on the type and quality of the lock. They cannot be picked like a traditional lock and often include added features like biometric access, PIN codes, and smartphone connectivity, which can make them more secure. However, they are not without risks. Potential vulnerabilities include hacking for Wi-Fi-connected models, battery failure, power outages, and technical malfunctions. To maximize security, it is important to choose a reliable brand, stay on top of software updates, and perform regular maintenance. While the risks are different, keyless locks are not considered more dangerous than traditional locks.

While all security lighting systems offer different benefits, motion sensor security lights have the most advantages and the fewest cons for the average homeowner. While the upfront cost can be hefty, automatic, motion-detected activation will reduce your energy bills in the long run by ensuring the lights are only turned on when necessary. Plus, they’ll ward off intruders and help invited guests find their way onto your property in equal measure. 

Yes, you should always change your locks after buying a house. Do so as soon as possible after you move in. Otherwise, you won’t know who has working keys to the property, whether they’re spare keys or otherwise. If an intruder gains access to your house with a key, it may not be covered under your homeowners insurance.
