"SafeStreets Home Security was a lifesaver! They had to troubleshoot my 3 floor townhouse unit, requiring many trips up and down the stairs. Finally determined that I needed an entire new alarm system but had all the parts and equipment available. Helped me program the app and set my security codes."

"HLS's president and installer Tom Sansone singlehandedly confirmed that experts who demonstrate exceptional customer care and superb performance do exist. Even if finding good pros wasn't such a futile exercise, Mr. Sansone is by far the best contractor, installer, business with whom I've dealt within the past 10 years, and that is no exaggeration. In terms of cost benefit of buying the system and his installation service? By comparison to everything I’ve bought and had installed since buying my house in 2014, I'd consider what HLS provided me may have been undervalued, because it's so vastly better than anything I have ordered, bought or had installed or done for any reason in more than four (maybe 10) years. My new commercial grade security camera system is so perfectly user friendly that it's like watching an HD TV with a DVR that does what you want). HLS’ owner installer tech Tom Sansone also instilled hope that a good, hard work ethic is not an elusive sentimental dream or unsatisfiable expectation. His work was so careful and response to my security needs that his work was exacting, clean, professional and so orderly that it replaced my miserable mess of wires, tape, broken and malfunctioning devices and system that had been rendered junk by intruders. Everything HSL installed and the base station was secured with a locking box and cooling system. His camera positioning and functionality were spot on and I now feel safer and more aware of my perimeter. My old, funky, fuzzy compromised Zmodo system has been replaced with a commercial grade wired, DVR system made by DAHUA Technologies, a wired DVR system with such clarity and functionality that I feel privileged to have it. HLS quality surpasses that of any product installation I’ve had in a decade. He faced a mess by the previous installer whose work pretty much mirrors the standard around this part of South Carolina, that being poor quality materials, spliced and black tape connections, loose and nonworking cameras, inaccessible remote viewing or backup records. I could never access viewing remotely resulting in persistent repeat burglaries and thefts rendering me practically uninsurable. As such, a reliable, highly functional system is imperative for my and my property’s protection. I now feel more secure and more capable or responding to the ravages of a predatory, drug-infested theft-riddled society sparing no one. Further, I don’t have to fume on hold in auto-prompt limbo trying to get help with my system, I have Tom Sansone to call if I need help with my system. I never have been more thankful or satisfied for any service, and I have gotten service that directly and critically enhances my very personal safety. (THANK YOU, HOME ADVISOR!!!)"

"Install was easy. Up front cost was pretty low with Angie's List coupon. Monthly price is a little high compared to competing companies. Response time with alarms is excellent. I was advised to use glass break alarms within 10 ft of my first floor windows, which we installed correctly. I asked prior to installation if having one in the kitchen would cause false alarms due to dishes clanging, etc. I was told the glass break alarms are configured to a precise frequency that alarms with breaking glass. So, not a "no", but not really an answer. Well, every time we cook dinner, wash dishes or empty the dish washer, the kitchen glass break alarm gives a warning which would sound the alarm if it was set. This has caused us a number of false alarms while we've been away due to shifting bowls or plates in our drying rack. For the first several we've had to pay our police department $120 to check the house, and I was only notified after the first alarm that there was a cheaper option for a security company to drive by to check for a break in."

"It went great!  From Travis the sales person to Noah the installer I couldn't have asked for a more professional and through team to deliver my home security needs.  We just bought a new house in a neighborhood that's up and coming but there's still an element that we want to protect our home and valuable from.  Security One helped us find a system that we could monitor while we're away and that would make my girlfriend feel safe when I'm not a home.  We highly recommend them especially Travis and Noah.  Ask for them by name!

"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

This is the topic of much debate, though there is no “better,” as it depends on personal preferences. Some of the components of a wireless system keep working when the power goes out, as they are battery-powered. On the other hand, a wireless system typically connects to your modem and router. Wired systems use landlines to communicate, which never go out on their own unless they’re physically cut.

A deadbolt differs from a regular lock in its design, construction, and security level. Regular locks are typically used for interior doors, such as for bedrooms and bathrooms, and provide minimal security. They are easy to install and use, often featuring a simple locking mechanism on the inside. In contrast, a deadbolt is one of the most secure locks you can install on an exterior door. Its internal construction is designed to withstand significant force, adding a crucial layer of security that can deter intruders. While deadbolts may be more expensive and complicated to install, they are cost-effective for the security they provide and are built to hold up to wear and tear.

Yes, you should always change your locks after buying a house. Do so as soon as possible after you move in. Otherwise, you won’t know who has working keys to the property, whether they’re spare keys or otherwise. If an intruder gains access to your house with a key, it may not be covered under your homeowners insurance.

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.

Professional home automation services can include automation for nearly anything in your home, so the possibilities are endless. Some of the more common things homeowners use automation for include the following:

  • Heating and cooling for automatic comfort

  • Security cameras and emergency call systems

  • Door and window sensors to detect opening, closing, and break-ins

  • Solar system automation to maximize energy savings

  • Automatic door locks

  • Garage door openers

  • Speaker systems

  • Lighting

  • Appliances

  • Smoke and CO detectors

  • Blinds and other window coverings

  • Lawn irrigation systems

  • Water monitoring
