"SafeStreets Home Security was a lifesaver! They had to troubleshoot my 3 floor townhouse unit, requiring many trips up and down the stairs. Finally determined that I needed an entire new alarm system but had all the parts and equipment available. Helped me program the app and set my security codes."

"With crime and break-ins picking up around the city, we felt it was time to invest in home security. Using ADT for the entire process was excellent. They added an extra motion detector to our equipment package for being new customers. We also added the smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. All and all, a great overall security and automation system."

Marco personally makes sure all aspects of the security system (sensors/cameras/monitoring/applications) are working seamlessly before project completion. He was a pleasure to work with and his associates were top notch."

"We have our second home in the mountain so they were able to send it and he was able to work with our installers and it worked out fine. So far we were are pleased with it. We were with another security system for 12 years and we changed because their selection of product was of a higher grade. They are excellent."

"I recently had 1st Security install a system in my new house and so far have been very pleased with all aspects of the system, from the initial estimate to the installation to the functioning of the system itself. Jeremy did our initial estimate and provided us with a thorough explanation of the system. I already had done a significant amount of research comparing Alarm.com to ADT and some of the self-install options, but Jeremy was able to provide even more information and help me to understand better the pros and cons of each approach. Larry did our installation and also was very friendly and knowledgeable, explaining each step of the installation process and providing me with a tutorial at the end. My wife and I have had no issues with the system so far. It is very intuitive, and we have been able to customize it to fit our unique needs. I highly recommend considering 1st Security for anyone looking at installing, switching, or upgrading their security system."

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

DIY is possible for wireless cameras, but professionals ensure optimal angles, security integration, and network stability.

Home security cameras typically do not record continuously 24/7. Most options use motion detection technology to trigger recording when they sense movement or a significant change in their field of view. This approach conserves storage space and reduces the need for constant monitoring. When motion is detected, the camera starts recording and may send alerts to the homeowner. However some cameras offer the option for continuous recording, but this requires substantial storage capacity and may overwrite older footage when space runs out.
