Customers say: Super punctual

"IT went absolutely excellent! I just upgraded my entire home security system. The guys who installed were extremely knowledgeable and courteous. They did an excellent job in home and put in a state of the art system. I feel totally safe in my home now. They were very patient, explained to me how to use the system and are very easy to reach. When you call the number for ANY issues at any time. The owner always answers and takes care of answering any of my questions or concerns. I have been with Stanguard for close to 20 years now and would do business with no other company."

I was able to leave him in my home to work while I was at work, and thoroughly explained how to use the system without losing patience. He is always very responsive when I have questions and worked extremely efficiently. I love my cameras and alarm system and feel highly protected. I highly recommend Computer Controlled Security."

"We hired EZ Switch to install exterior CCTV security cameras on a residential property. Alex was very helpful in selecting a product to suit our needs and demonstrated a good working knowledge of products available. The installation was completed as scheduled, with good communication keeping me advised of the status of special order products. The project was completed on time, with particular attention paid to every detail. The personnel were courteous, professional and Alex was very innovative in suggesting different methods to route the cables into the interior of the house. I am very pleased with the quality of the work performed by EZ Switch and would highly recommend them."

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

The biggest downside to a wireless security camera is that it's 100% reliant on Wi-Fi to capture footage at your home. Even when Wi-Fi is reliable, the range for wireless cameras may only be 200 feet or less. Drywall, brick, and other materials in your home can be enough to make your signal lag.

Home automation systems offer a wide range of automation products and services. Some of the most popular options include:

  • Cameras: $35–$350

  • Door and window sensors: $20–$100

  • Doorbells: $100–$350

  • Locks: $150–$400

  • Garage door openers: $150–$500

  • Lighting: $20–$100

  • Speakers: $30–$300

  • Outlets and plugs: $20–$100

  • Thermostats: $150–$300

  • Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors: $50–$150

  • Smart home hubs: $200–$900

  • Blinds: $50–$75

  • Appliances: $50–$3,000

  • Vacuums: $200–$1,200

  • Lawn systems: $80–$300

  • Wi-Fi and Mesh systems: $200–$500

  • Water monitoring: $100–$1,000

You likely can reset your house alarm without the code, but it depends on many factors like how it’s wired and whether or not there’s a default reset code. Most companies make bypassing a security alarm without entering your code challenging to prevent burglars from simply resetting the alarm during a break-in. Your best bet is to contact your alarm company directly to get specialized support for your situation. 

But, while you wait for support, you can disconnect it from the power source to stop the alarm from going off.

There are several strategic ways to lower your home insurance premium. The primary one is to shop around and get quotes every few years to make sure you’re getting the best deal. Also, sometimes bundling your auto and homeowner’s insurance will get you a discount on both. Finally, try to keep your credit score up; many homeowner insurance companies use credit scores to generate quotes.
