"Yesterday I called Mike while our local firemen were at my house for an emergency. He came straight over and arrived within 20 minutes. He discovered my issue was a Delmarva Power issue as my house was not receiving adequate power. Delmarva Power technician discovered a break in our underground wires. I am thankful for Mike coming so quickly and being professional during such a chaotic time for us. I will be calling Mike this week to schedule additional work to our home and will call him with any electrical needs in the future. Thank you, Mike!"

"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

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’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.

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.

Several types of deadbolts are available, including single-cylinder, double-cylinder, rim, smart, and electronic deadbolt locks. The most common type found in U.S. homes is the single-cylinder deadbolt, which uses a key on the exterior and a thumb turn on the interior. A double-cylinder deadbolt features two locking mechanisms and requires a key to be operated from both the inside and the outside.

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.

The cost of home automation averages around $1,000, with most projects falling between $200 and $2,000. The total cost depends on several factors, including the level of automation, brand, system features, home size, and location. For a DIY approach, basic home automation technology can cost between $100 and $500, though the scope and interaction between products may be limited. High-end, all-inclusive systems for larger homes can cost anywhere from $10,000 to $150,000, especially when they include smart appliances like refrigerators and dishwashers that require extensive wiring. Additional costs, such as subscriptions for maintenance services, can also impact the total price. It's often helpful to set a budget and consult with an expert to determine the best options for your home.
