Check their references thoroughly. If you’re hiring from a company, check with your local BBB.

Local Police Department
See if your local police department offers in terms of home security programs. Many police departments offer programs that can include home inspections, like on self-defense or other things related to your home. Contact your local police department to see if they have something similar.
Talk to the people who live in your neighbors.
Motion sensor lights on the exterior of your home is a great investment. These lights turn on if anyone walks closely to your house. Make sure you regularly change the light bulbs in your motion activated lights so that they will work properly.
Make sure that none of your valuables can be seen from outside the home. While it may be nice to look out, it also gives potential thieves a good look in your own home.
Flashlights are essential since they allow you move around in an emergency. Make sure your family knows where to find them and how to operate them.
A great way to achieve extra security is to add motion lights around the house. If strategically placed, then it makes it much less likely for a burglar to enter.
Get a custom-designed plan that fits your needs by having the security system custom built for your needs.
If you are going on a vacation, have them check for fliers on your door. Some intruders will place fliers to see if they’ll be quickly removed.
You need to get a home security system. Installing hidden and visible video cameras is great for securing your house. Visible cameras deter many intruders, and if they are disabled, a camera that is hidden will keep capturing footage. A lot of surveillance systems may be accessed through a cell phone, giving you the chance to check it even when you’re away.
Make sure no one can look inside of your garage. Don’t leave doors open for long lengths of time.
Ask about the different contract durations that a home security company. They probably each have their pluses and downsides.Longer contracts may create a lower bill per month, but you may not be able to get out of the contract if you need to. Shorter contracts mean more freedom at a higher cost.
Keep your curtains closed when you are away from home. Intruders can look into your home if the blinds are left up. You should also have them down when you are sleeping as well.
You shouldn’t keep your car registration papers in the glove compartment. This isn’t smart since anyone who gets them is going to know where you live. Keep them with you or hide them somewhere else in your vehicle. You must have this information on hand if you should be pulled over.
Think about hard-wired system if you’re worried about long term maintenance issues. It can also be very costly to replace a ton of batteries.
Are you ready to tackle your home security problems? Remember these tips and think about the best way for you to protect your family. You’ll be glad you did as you embark on this important matter.
