Some homeowners businesses may think that a security system is too much security. However in most situations, security systems are a necessity. They can save the company or homeowner a lot of money by decreasing instances of theft or burglaries. They can increase employee satisfaction and homeowner security, because they feel safer. A commercial security system provides many benefits to businesses. A residential security system provides peace of mind to the residents of the home. The installation process is also simply, requiring little time and effort.

Residential and commercial break ins may not seem very common. However, they are likely more common than you realize. In 2013, it was estimated that the losses from all reported property crimes totaled $16.6 billion. When a theft or burglary occurs in a residential or commercial property, an insurance claim is filed. The insurance company is responsible for replacing the stolen or damaged items, and the property owner?s insurance deductible may go up.

The loss of the feeling of security or peace of mind is often what affects property owners the most. Most physical items can be easily replaced, but the property owner has to accept that someone broke into their home. They will deal with questions of what would have happened if they were in the home when the intrusion occurred. Furthermore, what would have happened if children were in the home during the theft? That loss of security is often more damaging to the property owners than the items themselves.

It doesn?t help that most break ins are never solved. Police usually only solve about 13% of all reported burglaries mostly due to a lack of witnesses or physical evidence. The fact that your home was broken into, and the person who broke in is never found can also add to the feelings of lost security. Security system installation can help to ease these feelings and catch the person.

Additionally, a home security system can deter criminals from even attempting to break into a property. It can be tougher to get around the security system and there is a higher chance that they will be caught, if they do make it into the house. This often prevents them from trying. In fact, homes without security or alarm systems are up to 300% more likely to be broken into.

Surveillance systems can also help further the overall security of the property. Video surveillance systems run consistently, allowing the property owner to know what is going on outside of their property, at all times. Security system installation can prevent damage to the outside of the property, item and package theft, and can solve problems or discrepancies with employees. Security system installation allows a property owner to know what is going on around their property at all times.

Most security system companies charge a flat rate for security system installation and then a small monthly fee for monitoring services. The monthly monitoring services however are priceless. They inform the property owner of any problems with their alarm system. They can even live monitor the video surveillance, allowing the property owner to be aware of any problems immediately. If the property owner is not home, and the alarm system goes off, the live monitoring service will immediately notify the police to be dispatched out.

Security systems provide much more than a protection of property. They offer a priceless sense of peace that can be taken from a property owner when a home theft occurs. Video surveillance allows property owners to be aware of everything that is going on within their property lines, at all times. Live monitoring services notify the property owner of any problems, as they are happening. The installation of the security system is simple and is an important part of protecting the home or commercial property.
