"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!!"

"I don't think I could ever say enough good things about Shield Security and Art. Got a text message that my security system wasn't connecting via cellular and were concerned that if something happened it wouldn't dial in. Had no idea anything was wrong. Fixed almost immediately with a home visit. When problems are fixed that you don't even know exist I wish there were an A+ rating option."

"Juan did a great job with mounting a large number of blinds in some challenging window openings that I had been struggling with. He is also a very nice guy, and I will be using his services again (likely for doorbell camera systems in the near future). I would highly recommend him."

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts

If you want to make more home security upgrades to your perimeter, consider installing a smart automatic gate opener and a security camera. These will allow you to see who’s at the gate and open it for them (or not). You can learn how to install an automatic gate opener yourself or hire a professional for a little extra.

Yes, you can install a home security system in an old house. In fact, you can install a security system in any home. Some wiring may need to be added, but most home security systems do not require a lot of additional wiring. Wireless security systems can easily be installed with minimal additional wiring, if any at all. Most wireless security systems can be monitored and controlled from your smartphone, and the cameras and sensors operate on batteries.

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

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.

A potential weak link in any security system is poor connection strength or dropped signals, particularly in the case of a fully wireless system. You also want to ensure a reliable connection to get a hold of your service provider quickly. Also, you should exercise caution when handing out sign-in credentials to people outside the household.
