Home Security
The best holiday security protection you can give your home and pets
As security concerns have increased in recent years, homeowners are becoming more aware of the need to protect their homes and belongings.
If your home is burgled, it becomes the most important and consuming issue. Home invaders often work in groups, targeting vacant properties.
Unfortunately, house alarms and armed response do not always deter such criminals.
In today’s environment, a house alarm during daylight hours is often ignored and seen as a noisy inconvenience at night.
While nothing is ever 100% secure, locking doors and windows can give a false sense of safety. Time and darkness work in the criminal’s favor.
Neighborhood watches provide an extra layer of security, but who can be everywhere all the time? A sad story from one of our new clients serves as a cautionary tale. They locked up their house, gave the keys to a trusted neighbor, and sent the dog to the kennels.
When they returned four weeks later, they found their house empty—every piece of furniture gone, and every closet and drawer emptied! The kind neighbor saw and heard nothing. Oh, and by the way, the house alarm had been deactivated. The best protection for your home is 24-hour alarm monitoring paired with a live-in sitter.
