Boyd Norwood asked:
A man’s home is his castle, as the saying goes. But homes today don’t normally feature ramparts, drawbridges, moats and six-foot thick stone walls to keep out unwanted visitors. Today, a house alarm, and preferably a managed home security system, is needed to ensure your home’s security. Not only does installing a home security system improve the safety of your family and possessions, but it can also decrease your home insurance costs. The Top Ten House Alarm and Home Security Devices list highlights ten devices and features of home security systems that can make your house a safer place.
The Top Ten
10. Talking Devices help you to understand the status of your home and monitoring as well as program the system. Some security systems feature talking master control panels, key pads or remotes. The talking feature may not result in great conversation, but it will help you understand your system a little better.
9. Some home alarm systems include extras like Key Fobs and Remotes to control the system at a distance. Somewhat similar to a car’s key fob, home security key fobs include buttons to activate and deactivate the house alarm system. Some even include a “panic” button that activates the house alarm and alerts the proper authorities in the event of an emergency. Remote controls are similar and often larger. The features of remotes vary greatly and can include a full key pad, a talking feature and a panic button as well.
8. Yard Signs and House or Window Decals advertise your home’s protection. The Greenwich Study of Residential Security found that homes without alarms were 2.7 to 3.5 times more likely to be burglarized, and that the most effective deterrent was the alarm monitoring company’s yard sign (SIA Research Update, Security Industry Association, October 2001). Some choose to post the signs to deter possible break-ins without actually installing a home alarm system. While this effort will lower the odds of an attempted burglary, a yard sign alone cannot fully protect your home.
7. A Back-Up Power Supply is important in maintaining home security even during a power outage, when the risk of break-ins and looting is increased. Your home alarm should be effective even when your power is not. The easiest to maintain back-up power supplies use standard size batteries. Look for a model that uses rechargeable batteries to lower your maintenance costs.
6. Smoke Detectors add another layer of protection to your home, especially when they are integrated into the home alarm system. Not only do smoke detectors indicate a fire and give you time to escape safely, but when included in a home security package, they automatically notify the managing company and the fire department. Some systems even integrate the power supply to the smoke detectors. That means you don’t have to change the batteries ever!
5. Wireless Systems protect your home without adding extra cords to trip over or extensive installation of in-wall cords. In wireless house alarm systems, each sensor or keypad communicates with the master control panel via radio frequencies or existing wiring in your home. A burglar will never be able to disarm the system by snipping the wires. This ensures the system is fully integrated and monitoring all parts of your home without using up your outlets or creating an obstacle course of wires for you.
4. Extra Key Pads are also important. Exterior mounted key pads can provide secure keyless entry to your family. Some systems also offer remote control key pads which are lightweight and portable. A home alarm system that features a security code with a key pad increases the security of your home. A monitored system can also lock down entry after several repeated, failed attempts at entry which indicate a possible break-in attempt.
3. Key pads may not always be enough to keep burglars out. Sensors on Windows and Doors reduce the risk of a burglar entering undetected and are a key part of a home alarm system. Motion Detectors within the home also increase the level of security. The most sophisticated motion detectors include a feature to ignore pets’ movement to avoid constantly setting the alarm off inadvertently.
2. Installation, Monitoring, and Repair Services increase not only the level of safety but the convenience of keeping your home safe. A house alarm alone cannot notify the police or fire department in the event of an emergency. The most complete systems include buttons to notify police departments, fire departments and medical help instantly. Another advantage offered by the best monitoring companies is live customer support and full service installation and repair of the system by employees who have been background checked, licensed and drug tested to ensure your safety. Finally, some companies even offer relocation services to keep you secure even when you move.
1. The classic Master Control Panel is vital to any home alarm system. The central hub of the system, the control panel is usually wall-mounted in an easily accessible place. The panel receives information from all other sensors and key pads, computes it, and transmits relevant information to the monitoring company. If you choose to arm the system from the panel when you leave the house, the master control panel also receives the disarm code when you return home. Some can even be disarmed by telephone!
Of course, this list is not comprehensive, and the needs of every home and homeowner are different. For more tips on choosing the right home alarm system and features to protect your house, I recommend visiting alarmoneinc.com.

Bruce Kelly asked:
A security alarm system is an investment, and as such, you want to make sure that you invest in a company that offers the best security alarm systems. National security companies, like Brinks and ADT Security Services, often have similar standards, like a monthly contact, installation packages, and the inclusion of a keypad, multiple entryway contacts, and motion detector with your package. Unfortunately, that is where the differences end, even with these larger companies.
When you pay for the best in security alarm systems, you should receive the best products, technology, and service. The best in technology includes a standard keychain remote, multiple monitoring centers, and a state-of-the-art wireless system.
To protect your investment, security alarm systems should come with a free lifetime warranty. When a company offers a free lifetime warranty, it not only says something about the business, but about their confidence in their products. If a company was confident in their products, they would not charge a fee for a lifetime warranty.
In addition to a lifetime warranty, a company that wants you get the best investment possible will offer a number of other guarantees. ADT, for one, wants you to be 100% satisfied and comfortable with your decision to use their security alarm systems. Therefore, they offer several guarantees, including a Money-Back Service Guarantee, the Theft Protection Guarantee, and a Mover's Security Guarantee. The Money-Back Service Guarantee will refund the installation price and all monitoring fees if you are not satisfied within six months of service.
To guarantee their work, the Theft Protection Guarantee will pay your insurance deductible in a burglary were to happen. Additionally, the Mover's Security Guarantee will provide long-term customers with a special package, as well as an additional discount on your new home. Home security systems also offer a home owner's insurance certificate for up to 20% off your home owner's insurance policy. They will also periodically send out newsletters with the latest information and tips to help you keep your family safe.
One of the best ways to compare home security systems for your investment is to do some online research. Online, you can usually find reviews from other customers, special deals, and a full description of products offered.
To find the best deals, look for what products a company offers and how much they charge for the service of those products and the home security monitoring each month. In addition, search for any hidden fees or additional fees for services that were not mentioned in the beginning. Once you get an idea of what to look for you will have no problem doing the work need to protect your two biggest investments: your family and your home.
If you are still unsure about which company offers the best in security alarm systems, you may be able to contact home security companies for a free security review. This will better help you to decide among competing companies, systems, or packages.
