Top Four Devices For Your Home Security System

Imagine you and your family go out to dinner and are gone for a few hours. You come home from a delightful evening only to find your door open. As soon as you enter the home you realize that you have been burglarized. Your house looks like it was hit by a tornado.

Home security is a serious subject and it is important that you examine your home security right now. If you feel your security is lacking, consider adding these top four devices for your home security system.

1. Yard Sign and Decals

The first, and most important, device is not actually a device but rather signs and decals. One of the most effective ways to help prevent your home from being burglarized is by having signs saying your house is being monitored by an alarm company. This may sound unbelievable, but the reason it is true is because burglars are looking for an easy target and a house being monitored by an alarm company has too much added risk for most burglars.

2. Keyfob – Remote Control

The next device is a perfect way to activate your alarm if your system is off when you are at home and an intruder breaks in. Similar to car key fobs, some alarm systems include fobs with buttons that can activate or deactivate your system, and also include a “panic” button that can set the alarm off alerting the proper authorities.

3. Door and Window Sensors

Burglars have two main points of entry into your home, your windows and doors. One key part to a home alarm system are sensors that are placed on windows and doors. When the system is on and a door or window is opened your alarm will go off after a certain amount of time that is allowed for you to enter the security code. This will help prevent a burglar entering undetected.

4. Motion Detectors

If a burglar is able to get into your home undetected, motion detectors are great devices to have throughout your home. New motion detectors have a feature that ignores pets’ movements so you are not constantly setting off the alarm for no reason. If a burglar gets past your door and window sensors, your motion sensors will pick up their movement and set off the alarm.

Improve the security of your home to help avoid any potential life threatening situations by adding any or all of these top four security systems for home devices to your house today. You will feel safer knowing you invested in them.
