"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."

"Garage door spring broken and opener stopped working. Called office, they where responsive and came out the next day. Repair man was polite and professional and workmanship was great. He spent approximately two hours replacing the springs and gears in the opener. When complete the price seemed high for two springs and a plastic gear replacement. The parts could not have cost that much and for two hours of labor it seemed excessive. My fault, I should have shopped and compared them to others on price before agreeing to work just to keep them honest. I felt they would be fair based on the Angie's list ratings. I am a contractor myself and $425.00 for two hour of labor, two three foot metal springs and a plastic gear are excessive. I only have one price for all customers who price me before or trust me to be fair. Good quality but get other estimates first, it is a commodity repair."

"Delivery was delayed due to credit inquiry. After the concern was raised, shipment was rushed to us. Self installation didn't go as easy. Issue was resolved over the phone. The glass break sensor was a bit sensitive to loud noise such as cabinet door closing and door sensor repeatedly falls off and had to be reattached. Notification of alarm activation was fast and made to the right contact numbers. This prevented false alarm calls to the police."

"John promptly returned my call and we set up an appointment for the next morning to have him take a look at my garage door opener which was not working correctly.  John was able to figure out immediately what was wrong and got the opener working in about 5 minutes.  Since it was such an easy fix he helped me reprogram my opener and also serviced the garage door.  He noticed that when the door was manually lifted it was quite heavy.  He asked me if I had the spring replaced recently and I said yes...about a couple of years ago.  He adjusted the spring and then oiled all the hinges.  Great job.  Highly recommend John for the great work.

"

I have an infant at home and wanted to ensure that my home was protected while I was away.  I looked at various security providers and felt very comfortable with Alert Protective as a company

Overall the process was very simple - Alert?s sales rep Adam came to my home and listened to my security needs and recommended a system that keeps my family safe.  The sales rep was knowledgeable on the latest technology and provided a demo on arming and disarming the system via smartphone.    The installation crew showed up on time and was very helpful in instructing my wife and I on the functionality of the system.  I also went with Alert to monitor my home annually.  Again, it?s a painless process in signing a simple contract and providing payment. 

False alarms happen, even with us trying to be vigilant to keep them from happening (Naperville will fine you after a certain number).  Alert?s monitoring center was quick to call my cell phone as they had an alert that my alarm was triggered.  The monitoring women on the phone was friendly as I explained that I was the cause of the false alarm.  I also had an incident where I accidently triggered the silent panic button a few weeks after installation.  Alert notified the Naperville Police Department and they sent a unit to make sure we were okay.    It proved to me that their technology works quickly!

Lastly, I had Alert install some home audio equipment and had the same level of service and a great outcome.



Overall, a great customer service orientated company!

"The sales rep was very professional, I felt comfortable and didn't feel pressured. He was able to fit my security needs, answering all the questions, and was able to put me in the right package. The install was prompt and professional, because the system is completely wireless, they didn't have to make any holes or a mess in my home. Security system operated flawlessly, and the installer explained it to use very thoroughly. Overall it was an incredible experience, unlike that I've had with cable companies."

Security Doors questions, answered by experts

There are a number of ways to secure windows. You can add motion detectors or window sensors to detect movement and impact or change the window locks to make them stronger. Some of the ways you can secure windows are much like how you secure a home: closing the curtains at night and setting up security cameras outside so you can monitor your property even in your absence. 

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.

To prevent false alarms, motion detectors need proper placement and settings. Start by installing them away from pets and windows where outside movement could set them off. Adjust the sensitivity settings to reduce the likelihood of it detecting minor motions. Consider using dual-tech sensors, for example passive infrared (PIR) and microwave technology, to improve accuracy and reduce false alarms. And don’t forget regular maintenance—cleaning the sensor and checking for any obstructions can go a long way in making sure your detectors run smoothly.

Home automation systems offer a wide range of automation products and services. Some of the most popular options include:

  • Cameras: $35–$350

  • Door and window sensors: $20–$100

  • Doorbells: $100–$350

  • Locks: $150–$400

  • Garage door openers: $150–$500

  • Lighting: $20–$100

  • Speakers: $30–$300

  • Outlets and plugs: $20–$100

  • Thermostats: $150–$300

  • Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors: $50–$150

  • Smart home hubs: $200–$900

  • Blinds: $50–$75

  • Appliances: $50–$3,000

  • Vacuums: $200–$1,200

  • Lawn systems: $80–$300

  • Wi-Fi and Mesh systems: $200–$500

  • Water monitoring: $100–$1,000

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.
