home monitored security
Current Spikes In
Home RobberyIn my own neighborhood, the news reports that there has been a recent spike in home robbery. The few months before summer temperatures start to rise and homeowners begin to leave their windows open throughout the day and night. Authorities advise that you keep your doors and windows locked while you are away from home and in the evenings when you’ve gone to bed. As state above, a large number of burglaries are simply crimes of convenience and opportunity where burglars target homes that are easy to get into. Outside of having a home security system installed, closing a window is a really simple way of keeping burglars out of your home. Landscaping Home Security TechniquesAs mentioned above lights are an excellent way to keep away burglars. A
porch light and even garden lights are an investment that not only protect you but enhance the look of your home. Phoenix construction contractors in my area have new modern styles of gates for homes as well that are probably available in your city too. Any signs of a home being difficult to enter will help keep away burglars who want an easy entrance. A fence with good locks will add to your home’s protection. And if your town is like mine where Phoenix construction services are abundant then you can find a really affordable installation price.

residential internet service providers
Most alarming is that half of those without systems just aren’t interested — today or under any offered conditions. This creates added importance to maintaining existing customers, and Parks Associates research shows these customers largely value price savings. When those who terminated service in the past year were asked the reason for terminating their service, 36 percent said
they didn’t feel the service was worth what they were paying for it. This is why smart home kit vendors offering self monitoring have the potential to grow more quickly by addressing the needs of non traditional security customers. These customers are increasingly interested in home control and potentially security but not in professional monitoring fees. — Contributed by Tom Kerber, Director, IoT Strategy, Parks AssociatesAs Managing Editor, Karyn Hodgson writes exclusive cover stories, such as SDM’s State of the Market series, as well as other feature length

Further, there can be additional benefits to a DIY system because they’re typically much easier to transfer to another home if you move. For someone looking for a more complex setup like home automation, or someone that wants a trained expert to make the recommendation for the setup, expert installation is a great option. We’ve found that most people that were apprehensive about self installing a home security system actually ended up finding the process very easy. There are companies out there like Frontpoint that are known to be particularly helpful in this stage. Handsfree features usually work in conjunction with your mobile device and/or your home automation system. Of course, you know you can use the voice option with Alexa and other home automation systems to control your equipment. But some security systems also have a handsfree feature that
will work with your mobile device or a key fob to detect when you are within range of your system. And when you are within that range, it will automatically unlock your door and disarm your security system for you, handsfree. So if this is a convenience factor you’d like to have, then yes, you do need to look for a system that has handsfree options. Geotracking works similar to the handsfree feature. When geotracking is
included with your home security system, it works with the GPS feature on your smartphone, as long as you have the location services enabled.
