"I self installed our FrontPoint system. It went smoothly and my questions were answered efficiently and professionally by the FrontPoint staff. I would highly recommend FrontPoint as a home security system."
"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! "
"I responded to a flyer that I received from ADT as I had been thinking about installing a security system for extra peace of mind as I am a single woman living alone. It sounded like a deal that was too good to pass up. I did not realize until I did some research later that ADT subcontracts all of their installation out to local providers so I am not sure which parts of this review should be directed at ADT vs Protect your Home...who provided the installation service but it is clear that their business practices have common core and most of my interaction has been with Protect Your Home. Apparently, after 3 months Protect your Home is no longer responsible for my system and after some research I am starting to wonder what will happen when ADT becomes responsible for addressing any issues with my system if there is no local service provider. Here's an overview of my experience. It was easy to set up the appointment and the installers arrived right on time. I want to state that my low grade has nothing to do with my overall experience with the installers who came out and installed my system. They were friendly and courteous and very professional in completing the install. Nor am I dissatisfied (for the most part) with the system that has been installed. However, the reason that I would not recommend Protect your Home is that I do have a problem with the sales tactics that they use which I have to believe come via ADT and then through the local installer Protect Your Home. I was definitely oversold and my monthly premium is too high and much higher than I was initially quoted. I am also locked in for 3 years which is too long and should be unnecessary if your product is worth the cost. I believe there are better ways to set up business practices so that your salespeople are not so dependent on the commission they receive from a sale. After evaluating my home my installer did some neat number tricks (this is sarcasm) to give me an estimate that was supposed to convince me that getting the highest upgrade was actually going to be the best deal for me after all of the credits had been applied. I didn't really buy it but at that point I didn't completely understand all the components and the implications. I was also prepared to invest in a security system and could also see the value in most of the parts of the system. I ended up agreeing and the installation was completed that night. I'm not sure what would have happened if I had asked to think about my options...my installer was a smooth talker and knew how to take advantage of me as a single woman. Over the next few days as I reviewed the contract and started using my system I realized that I did not need the security camera or the supposedly handy clicker for disarming and arming the system that was supposed to be a bonus but was listed at $150 on my invoice. The clicker is pretty much useless if you go with the Pulse system and can control the entire system from your iPhone. I also thought my monthly premium was higher than it should be. I called ADT to inquire and the rep told me that I could return any equipment for a refund for 30 days. I was also quoted a monthly rate that was lower if the camera was returned. They set up an appointment for my installer to come out to collect the equipment that I did not want. However, when the installer came back out he contradicted the information that I had received from ADT. At that point I didn't argue and didn't want to deal with the frustration of navigating between all these parties so I kept my camera, my unused clicker, and have a higher monthly premium than I believe I should have. As a customer I would be much more likely to recommend this company if you set up your practice so that your salespeople came out for an initial evaluation and clearly explained the options and pricing. THEN, gave the customer time to consider the options and choose the system that best suits their needs. Yes, it takes more time but now that I have done some additional research I understand from first hand experience why ADT has lost credibility to other home security providers. Until this changes I would recommend that anyone looking for home security system do their research before setting up an appointment with ADT based on their name value alone. Finally, I also have yet to receive my $100 VISA gift card which required extra hoops to jump through in order to have it sent out. I sincerely hope that both companies consider their business practices and make some changes or I definitely be considering another company when I move and/or at the end of my contract."
"About 4 years ago I need my home protected by something other than my dog while I was not home looking for a job. I needed something affordable, simple to use and install my self as my house was not prewired. I found Protect America and it had all I needed and more. Over the years I have added to my system more sensors, motion detectors, camera's, carbon monoxide sensor, and monitored smoke detectors. All of it was simple enough to do with some help with their Installation Technician walking me though everything on the phone. I have had other companies try to get me to switch to them, but what I have works and they could not beat the price so I told them no thanks."
"LOVE this system! Customer service was extremely nice and made my experience effortless. Speaking of effortless, the self-installation was super easy. It took me less than 30 minutes from start to finish to get my system up and running. Highly recommended!"

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts
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.
Insurance companies weigh the amount of potential liabilities on your property to increase (or decrease) the cost of your home insurance. They will use several factors to decide if there are more chances for peril or injury to take place at your home. These factors include your location (whether you live in an area with high risk for natural disasters), the age and condition of your home, and whether you have any “attractive nuisances”—features that both increase the aesthetic of your home and potential for injury—like a pool or treehouse.
Installing a gate on your property is often a worthwhile investment, despite the initial expense. Gates enhance your home's curb appeal and can increase its property value, making them more attractive to potential homebuyers. They provide significant security benefits by keeping out unwanted guests and increasing privacy for your household. Additionally, a gate can help keep children and pets safely contained in your yard.
For driveway gates, automatic versions are particularly convenient and tend to add more value than manual ones. The choice of gate material also plays a role in both aesthetic appeal and security. Beyond driveways, side gates can improve accessibility to your rear yard, making the outdoor space more usable. Overall, whether for security, safety, or aesthetics, installing a gate is a valuable addition to a property.
Keyless locks are great for convenience, letting you unlock doors with a code or your phone so you don't need to carry keys around. They also often come with helpful features like temporary codes for guests. On the downside, they can be more costly up front and do require batteries that will eventually need replacing. If you value ease of use and additional security features, keyless locks are worth the investment.
The average cost to install a home security system is about $750. However, the price can range from as little as $200 for a simple wireless camera setup to $2,000 for a fully monitored, hardwired system. A typical price range is $280 to $1,150. Several factors determine the final cost, including the type of system, equipment, materials, labor, activation fees, monthly surveillance fees, and permits. Optional upgrades will also add to the price, such as video surveillance monitoring ($40–$65 per month), smart locks ($150), smart lighting ($15–$90), smart smoke and carbon monoxide alarms ($35–$100), and a smart thermostat ($130–$500).
