With advances in alarm monitoring services there is a wide range of choices to keep your family and possessions safe from burglars. The days of having a vicious dog roam the side of your home or business have been replaced by surveillance cameras that are more likely to scare off a would-be thief than old Rover ever did.
The ability to keep an eye on what’s happening in your home is unprecedented. Today’s surveillance cameras monitor an entire home through live or recorded video. Some cameras can even send notifications when they sense movement. And others allow you to check in from any location through mobile apps or web browsers.
Meanwhile, wireless security has become a game-changer for alarm monitoring services.
Remember the old movie where the phone line had been cut allowing the bad guy to run amok while the poor victim in the house could only hope to survive the night.
Wireless security has made that situation nearly impossible now as newer security systems make use of wireless protocols for communication.
Wireless home security gets rid of the awkwardness caused by dangling wires around the house. With no wires to cut, the burglar’s life just got a whole lot more difficult.
There has also been a spike in the popularity of wireless security as it is a cost-effective way to have an alarm monitoring system installed.
Wireless cameras are also a wise choice for renters as there is no need to run cables through the walls or ceiling and in turn it isn’t necessary to get approval from the owner to install a wireless system.
