"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

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.

To prevent false alarms, motion detectors need proper placement and settings. Start by installing them away from pets and windows where outside movement could set them off. Adjust the sensitivity settings to reduce the likelihood of it detecting minor motions. Consider using dual-tech sensors, for example passive infrared (PIR) and microwave technology, to improve accuracy and reduce false alarms. And don’t forget regular maintenance—cleaning the sensor and checking for any obstructions can go a long way in making sure your detectors run smoothly.

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.

Standard residential deadbolt locks come with a steel bolt that locks your door into place using a key (or keypad) on one side and a thumb turn on the other. When you lock it, the bolt slides into a strike plate on your door jamb to secure your door shut.

While many security cameras rely on an internet connection to transmit footage and store it in the cloud, not all of them stop working when the Wi-Fi is off. Some models are designed to function offline by using local storage options, such as a microSD card or a network-attached storage (NAS) device. These cameras can continue to record footage even without an internet connection. You can then access the stored data once the Wi-Fi is restored.
