"Bryan D helped me with my new house alarm. Bryan was friendly and pleasant to work with. He took his time and listened to my needs for my desired level of security. (I am quite the paranoid person when it comes to home security!) He is extremely knowledgeable and was informative and thorough on all aspects of security, from the system functionality to do-it-yourself enhancements around my home. He gave me a ton of great advice and I feel 110% at ease with my security system! I highly recommend you work with Bryan at Alarm protect group!!"
"Got going with ADT system earlier this Fall. It has been good. Still getting used to a much fancier and dynamic system. But it was time for an upgrade and we would suggest ADT to anyone looking to secure their home or their business."

"I responded to a flyer that I received from ADT as I had been thinking about installing a security system for extra peace of mind as I am a single woman living alone. It sounded like a deal that was too good to pass up. I did not realize until I did some research later that ADT subcontracts all of their installation out to local providers so I am not sure which parts of this review should be directed at ADT vs Protect your Home...who provided the installation service but it is clear that their business practices have common core and most of my interaction has been with Protect Your Home. Apparently, after 3 months Protect your Home is no longer responsible for my system and after some research I am starting to wonder what will happen when ADT becomes responsible for addressing any issues with my system if there is no local service provider. Here's an overview of my experience. It was easy to set up the appointment and the installers arrived right on time. I want to state that my low grade has nothing to do with my overall experience with the installers who came out and installed my system. They were friendly and courteous and very professional in completing the install. Nor am I dissatisfied (for the most part) with the system that has been installed. However, the reason that I would not recommend Protect your Home is that I do have a problem with the sales tactics that they use which I have to believe come via ADT and then through the local installer Protect Your Home. I was definitely oversold and my monthly premium is too high and much higher than I was initially quoted. I am also locked in for 3 years which is too long and should be unnecessary if your product is worth the cost. I believe there are better ways to set up business practices so that your salespeople are not so dependent on the commission they receive from a sale. After evaluating my home my installer did some neat number tricks (this is sarcasm) to give me an estimate that was supposed to convince me that getting the highest upgrade was actually going to be the best deal for me after all of the credits had been applied. I didn't really buy it but at that point I didn't completely understand all the components and the implications. I was also prepared to invest in a security system and could also see the value in most of the parts of the system. I ended up agreeing and the installation was completed that night. I'm not sure what would have happened if I had asked to think about my options...my installer was a smooth talker and knew how to take advantage of me as a single woman. Over the next few days as I reviewed the contract and started using my system I realized that I did not need the security camera or the supposedly handy clicker for disarming and arming the system that was supposed to be a bonus but was listed at $150 on my invoice. The clicker is pretty much useless if you go with the Pulse system and can control the entire system from your iPhone. I also thought my monthly premium was higher than it should be. I called ADT to inquire and the rep told me that I could return any equipment for a refund for 30 days. I was also quoted a monthly rate that was lower if the camera was returned. They set up an appointment for my installer to come out to collect the equipment that I did not want. However, when the installer came back out he contradicted the information that I had received from ADT. At that point I didn't argue and didn't want to deal with the frustration of navigating between all these parties so I kept my camera, my unused clicker, and have a higher monthly premium than I believe I should have. As a customer I would be much more likely to recommend this company if you set up your practice so that your salespeople came out for an initial evaluation and clearly explained the options and pricing. THEN, gave the customer time to consider the options and choose the system that best suits their needs. Yes, it takes more time but now that I have done some additional research I understand from first hand experience why ADT has lost credibility to other home security providers. Until this changes I would recommend that anyone looking for home security system do their research before setting up an appointment with ADT based on their name value alone. Finally, I also have yet to receive my $100 VISA gift card which required extra hoops to jump through in order to have it sent out. I sincerely hope that both companies consider their business practices and make some changes or I definitely be considering another company when I move and/or at the end of my contract."

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts
Ultimately, the decision should align with your objectives. For general home security, visible cameras at entry points and high-traffic areas are recommended to deter intruders. In areas where privacy is a concern, use hidden cameras sparingly and within legal limits.
You don’t need to completely revamp your security system constantly, but it’s a great idea to give it a once-over every year. Look for potential upgrades or new features—like smart home tech or replacing outdated equipment—that could boost your safety. If you make any significant changes, let your insurer know as they may adjust your discounts to reflect your improved security. Staying on top of your security not only keeps your home safe but ensures you’re getting the best possible rate on your insurance.
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.
Hiring a professional ensures optimal camera placement, secure installation, and integration with existing security systems. Professionals ensure reliable operation and can offer system customization to suit specific security needs or preferences.
Yes, driveway gates can help secure your home by deterring burglars from accessing your property. Climbing a gate slows down burglars while also attracting attention to your gate. If you live further down your property and want to increase security, you can also install a gate security camera that connects to your gate and monitors the area for suspicious activity.
