"Andrew Brown from Alarm Protection Group facilitated the installation of our home security system. He was a very helpful and informative, and was not pushy, as with other ADT sales reps. He followed up with us after the system was installed to see if we had any questions or concerns re the system. I highly recommend Andrew to anyone who is interested in a home security system."

"I can't say enough good things about Family First Security! Sure, there are other security companies out there...but they are not all ethical, like FFS is. FFS doesn't push upgrades and higher plans off onto you. They simply educate you on what they are able to offer and then hook you up! (Pun intended) :) You will not regret choosing Family First Security, and you'll find that Jamie and his team turn out to feel more like friends than a service provider. Thanks FFS for keeping it real and keeping my home protected!"

"With crime and break-ins picking up around the city, we felt it was time to invest in home security. Using ADT for the entire process was excellent. They added an extra motion detector to our equipment package for being new customers. We also added the smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. All and all, a great overall security and automation system."

"Family First Security was used by our builder to wire our new home 5 years ago. The owner/installer explained our system well and we have had little problems and feel secure with our security. Recently we were having issues with one of our door sensors setting off the alarm. We could not get satisfaction from Brinks who is monitoring our home so I called Jamie to see if he could help. He called back quickly and said he was going to be in the neighborhood that day and would stop by and see if he could help. This was above and beyond his responsibility and we fully appreciate how he follows up on security equipment he installs, his professionalism and making the customer number one. Thank you. Kay A"

".After our home was broken into in January 2014, I was motivated to install a security system. I asked my family about the services they use, and several people warned me about the small print in most contracts, and how tough it is to get out of contracts. Angie's List was running a special with Security One/Safe Home Security systems; they are highly rated, so I bought the special. I am very pleased with the level of customer service: they responded quickly via email or phone to all of my questions. Their technician guided me on the doors & windows to select for motion sensors. I am able to track disarming of the security pad by user via email, which means an email pops up whenever my kids come home/disarm the system. I am also able to track arming/disarming via their mobile app, or use the mobile app to arm/disarm the house. The monthly payment plan is affordable & there are no contract surprises/changes written in. They also guide me on things I would have forgotten, like registering my alarm system with the local police. I appreciate their guidance and service.

"We like their service. We haven't had any problems. They are very good. This was the first time we've had an alarm/security system in our home. The supplier is ADT. I like that I can set my alarm every night before I go to bed."

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts

While all security lighting systems offer different benefits, motion sensor security lights have the most advantages and the fewest cons for the average homeowner. While the upfront cost can be hefty, automatic, motion-detected activation will reduce your energy bills in the long run by ensuring the lights are only turned on when necessary. Plus, they’ll ward off intruders and help invited guests find their way onto your property in equal measure. 

Each has its use, depending on the scenario. Security doors are primarily intended to keep people out of the home, while storm doors are used to protect the home from extreme weather. Both tend to be made from heavy-duty metal and may include glass panels to allow light to enter the home. Storm doors can feature mesh screens, just like screen doors, to allow for increased ventilation and to keep out pests. Security doors rarely, if ever, have mesh screens.

You should be able to use your smart doorbell and access your video feed without a subscription. Subscriptions give you special features, such as night vision, downloading, and automatically saving footage for a set amount of days. It’s a good idea to compare plans among different providers before you commit. 

Grounding is a great first step to prevent electrical shock, but you can take it further with GFCI outlets and AFCIs (arc fault circuit interrupters). In particular, AFCIs help protect against the type of electrical arcs that cause fires, like if a mouse chews on a wire or your laptop starts overheating at the wall. These are required in some areas of your home.

It depends on your specific needs. A security system typically includes alarms, sensors for windows and doors , and 24/7 monitoring services, offering comprehensive protection with immediate response to potential threats. Cameras, on the other hand, primarily provide visual surveillance and evidence collection. A security system is preferable if your primary concern is deterring intruders and receiving real-time alerts. Cameras are ideal for monitoring and recording activities but might offer a different level of active protection. In many cases, a combination of both—a security system with integrated cameras—provides the most robust home security solution, offering prevention and documentation.
