"My wife and I recently purchased an Older Home in the Nob Hill Region of Albuquerque. The house had previously been hardwired and serviced by a larger national security company. Given prior negative experiences at other properties with these larger companies and binding contracts, etc., I wanted to go with a local business for my security needs. I can verify without any reservation that I couldnâ t be happier with the service I received from Brandon and his crew at SW security. Give them a call, I know you will be too. I originally found SW security on Angi, And then looked into the BBB To verify the quality of their work. I was very pleased to see that they have an A+ rating which they are very deserving of. After meeting with several contractors from different companies, it was pretty clear from the beginning that Brandon, the owner at SW security stands out from the rest. He was personable, engaging, took time to answer all of my questions and was very knowledgeable in regards to what I would need to best secure my house. I canâ t make that same statement about the other local businesses I met with. At no time did I feel like I was being sold a â one size fits all systemâ or pressured into anything I didn't want. I will note that I was not interested in getting the cheapest or â best dealâ on my system. I don't believe that cutting corners is something to do with your personal security. My wife and I had fumbled through several DIY security systems currently available and after much disappointment, wanted something much more robust. I can say that with the installation now done for the better part of a month, we have achieved that standard and much more. I can now monitor my security system remotely while at work, and arm or disarm the system from my smartphone. This may seem like a small detail, but the piece of mind, knowing I can be gone for 8-12 hours while my family and possessions are protected is worth its weight in gold. His installation team, consisting of technologists Austin and Seth, was not only efficient and effective, but also highly professional. They took care to place alarms and sensors in discreet locations where they would not only be effective, but also aesthetically pleasing. The two of them were very polite and took all of my placement concerns into consideration. The team needed to come back on a separate day to complete the job since I wanted my wood doors drilled for more discreet appearing sensors. They were more than accommodating in this regard and worked around my schedule to come by and finish the job. They set up temporary sensors on my doors for a day or two to make sure that the house was secured until they could completely finish the job. Afterwards, they used a shop vac and cleaning up wood shavings to give a very nice clean work space. Overall, you should do yourself a favor and Call SW security for a consultation on your security needs. I couldnâ t be happier that I did. I can sleep at night knowing my house and family is safe from intruders. I will certainly be using the companyâ s service for years to come,"

"The employees who came to our house presented themselves in a professional manner. We had a bit of problem setting up the camera view on computers outside the home (i.e., through the website), but we figured it out and are very satisfied with our security camera system."

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts

With the popularity of DIY security cameras and video surveillance systems, it’s important to understand the benefits and potential drawbacks to decide if it’s the right choice for you. Advantages and disadvantages include:

Pros

  • Video footage readily available

  • Reduced home insurance

  • Save on labor costs by installing security cameras yourself

  • Wireless systems are easy to move and set up

  • Monitor from your smartphone

  • Avoid false alarms

Cons

  • Features may be vulnerable to hackers

  • No direct link to authorities

  • Risk of installing the system improperly, reducing its effectiveness

Keyless locks are great for convenience, letting you unlock doors with a code or your phone so you don't need to carry keys around. They also often come with helpful features like temporary codes for guests. On the downside, they can be more costly up front and do require batteries that will eventually need replacing. If you value ease of use and additional security features, keyless locks are worth the investment.

The benefit of deadbolt locks is that they're much harder to force open than simple locks with pin tumbler mechanisms, so they may offer added security. This feature is why many locksmiths recommend deadbolts for home security. For many households, this added protection and peace of mind is well worth the cost of installing a deadbolt.

A steel door that's been toughened up with extra materials creates the perfect barrier. These bad boys are way stronger than your typical wooden or fiberglass doors, making them a fantastic choice for folks who want that extra layer of security for their homes. So, if you're all about keeping things super secure, a reinforced steel door will cost you more, but it is your best bet.

Yes, it’s possible a burglar can get through a deadbolt. Some types of deadbolts are harder for an intruder to get through, though. For example, a single-cylinder lock only requires breaking a window nearby and simply turning it. While other locks, such as a double-cylinder lock, may offer greater protection and make it harder for an intruder, no deadbolt is 100 percent effective.
