"I used to work in the security industry. Once I got married and had kids I definitely wanted a home security system. Bought ADT about a month ago and it’s worked out excellent. No glitches or issues and everyone was awesome in the buying and activation process."

"Ed and his apprentice, Wyatt, were extremely well prepared to do the many different jobs I had lined up for them. Ed started with a very prompt response to my Home Advisor request and an immediate quote visit, followed by a timely emailed estimate. My job was scheduled only a few weeks out and was an agreed upon date and time. They were communicative, punctual and had great time management. Ed contacted me immediately when he was called away to an emergency. They came back to my house and completed the job the next morning!! They were neat and respectful of my home. They cleaned up all they were supposed to and compiled the remainder in easy to remove sized boxes. I would definitely hire them again! Thank you gentlemen!!"

"Cinemaesque installed a TV and soundbar in our home. We had great customer service from the start. Doug was able to recommend and help purchase the TV and soundbar along with the necessary mounts and cables. They were able to fit us into their schedule quickly and were professional during the install. Finished product looks great and performs even better."

Home Security Systems FAQs, answered by experts

The best type of deadbolt depends on your specific needs. If accessibility is your primary concern, a single-cylinder deadbolt is the easiest to operate. Mortise locks are likely the most secure type of deadbolt you can install, but single-cylinders combined with secondary locking mechanisms like vertical locks are also a great option. Smart locks will give you the most flexibility to open and close your locks whenever and wherever you need to. 

Costs depend on system type, labor rates, and additional features like smart integration or professional monitoring.

A home security system can be a worthwhile investment for several reasons. Financially, it may qualify you for a discount of up to 20% on your home insurance premiums, which can help offset the initial setup costs and any ongoing monitoring or subscription fees. For many, the primary benefit is the peace of mind that comes with enhanced security, especially for those living in areas with higher crime rates. Ultimately, whether a system is worth it depends on your personal preferences, the value of the assets you wish to protect, and your overall safety concerns.

In general, daytime visibility for security cameras ranges from 10 to 70 feet. Higher-end cameras may have night vision that records 100 to 200 feet out. When shopping for any type of security camera, it's important to pay attention to focal length, resolution, and infrared technology to get an idea of the depth and crispness that will be used when capturing images.

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.
