Get matched with top home security system pros in North Chelmsford, MA

Q: What do I need to know before buying a security system?

• <div><p>Not all security systems are equal, so familiarize yourself with the many features available and any associated costs. Decide on a wireless or wired system and look at monthly subscription fees to access the service. Finally, read plenty of reviews to check out the efficacy of your intended security system. </p></div>

Q: Are keyless door locks safe?

• <div><p>In general, keyless door locks are considered safe. They can&rsquo;t be picked like a traditional lock, and unless a thief can guess your code, it&rsquo;s pretty tricky to break into a house with a keyless door lock. But that doesn&rsquo;t mean they come without risk. </p><p>When asking yourself, &quot;<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-are-pros-and-cons-keyless-locks.htm">Are keyless door locks safe</a>?&rdquo; consider the style of the system. Hackers could potentially break in if it operates on Wi-Fi, but it&rsquo;d take some time and effort. You&rsquo;re also at risk for a power outage, depending on the type of lock. That being said, there are no more risks associated with keyless door locks than a traditional lock. </p></div>

Q: How much does home automation cost?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-home-automation-cost.htm">Home automation costs</a> an average of <b>$1,000</b>, and most projects fall between <b>$200 and $2,000</b>. The total cost will depend largely on the level of automation you want in your home. High-tech, all-inclusive systems can cost well over <b>$10,000</b> for larger homes, so most homeowners set a budget and then provide that to an expert to get the best results. You can also opt for DIY home automation technology for between <b>$100 and $500</b>, but the scope and interaction between products are usually limited.</p></div>

Q: What are the benefits of hiring someone to install security cameras?

• <div><p>A security camera company will be able to advise you on where to position the cameras, ensure all of the equipment is set up properly, and do all of the installations. They&rsquo;ll take factors into consideration that a non-professional might not automatically consider, like obstacles that could block a potential trespasser from the camera or how lighting may obstruct the view. </p></div>

Q: Are there peel-and-stick doorbell cameras?

• <div><p>Yes, there are, and they often come with a screw set to ensure they stay secure. They run on batteries, depend on WiFi, and often require a WiFi extender. These typically cost <b>less than $50</b>. Doorbell cameras like these are great for renters who can't install a wired solution. However, a wired doorbell camera is a better choice for homeowners looking to invest wisely in home security.</p></div>

Awesome customer service. Excellent installation. Great "zero pressure" experience from Juston on the water test and recommended fixes for the issues. After the install, Bill explained the system, how it works, and what we had to do maintain it (next to nothing). We have no more "rotten egg"...
