Studies show that almost 66 percent of all burglaries take place in residences. What is more alarming is that homes without alarm systems are three times as likely to be broken into as opposed to homes that do not have alarm systems. Burglars do not want to spend very much time in a home, and if there is an alarm blaring alerting neighbors to their presence, they are much more likely to leave quickly If they do manage to break in. Security signs and stickers posted on a home and in the yard can often times be enough of a deterrent to prevent a break in. An actual home security system is another layer to discourage home break-ins even further.
An alarm system allows peace of mind to both deployed soldiers and the family members still at home. The more security and peace of mind the better. Another benefit to having a home security system is the financial benefit. Your insurance rates can go down, and an alarm system will raise the value of your home.
