Layering Your Protection Is A Wise Strategy

Protecting your property with different security layers is a worthwhile plan for keeping your home safe. A comprehensive alarm system would feature window and door sensors, indoor and outdoor cameras, doorbell cameras, motion-activated lighting, and smart door locks. ADP signs and stickers alert prospective prowlers that these security components might be installed but they would only be a single aspect of your entire protection plan.

A yard sign could be all it takes to ward off a first-time intruder, but a sticker in a window may not keep away a career criminal. If there aren’t other security measures, they may conclude the signage is just for show and your property is a suitable target.

There's a general idea that installing a home security sign next to your front door is all you need to safeguard your property. In essence, a robber will see "Protected By ADT'' and go on past. Therefore, would it make sense to only implement a home security sign and skip a real home security system? Basically, a home security system isn’t necessary, just get a home security sign. It’s the home security sign that deters intrusion, not the actual alarm system.

Even though there is a benefit to displaying signage from prominent home security providers such as ADT®, it isn't enough to dissuade career criminals. You’ll be in a much better position backing them up with a range of additional security devices. You’ll probably agree it’s a safer alternative than taking the chance that your home security signs will deter intrusion.

Back-Up Your Home Security Signs With Actual Protection

Although home security signs could deter intrusion at times, you shouldn’t depend on them as your only form of protection. Instead, you should try implementing some, if not all of these devices:

● Video cameras: Let's face it, intruders never wish to be caught by your camera as it could be critical evidence in legal proceedings. Consider an outdoor camera system that can cover primary entry points such as front and back doors, garage, and windows.

● Entry-point sensors: The majority of invaders break into your home via your front door, back door, and windows, so you should have those protected by motion and glass break sensors. In the event a sensor is activated, your integrated home defense will notify you and your around-the-clock monitoring professionals.

● Motion-detection lighting: Even though it’s the truth that a lot of invasions take place during the day when you are working, you should also protect against nighttime prowlers. Lights with motion-detection capability installed near your access points will quickly illuminate nefarious behavior and turn away intruders.

● Smart locks and doorbell cameras: Smart locking systems will update you if a person tries to unlock or open your entrance. A doorbell camera adds another layer of security by giving you a live video feed. Both of these solutions can be accessed by your smartphone security application.

● Smart lights: Another useful home automation tool, smart lights can be customized to a daily plan or engaged easily from your mobile device. They will make it seem like you are present and successfully turn away thieves.
