Home security, like so many other subjects, is one that everybody has an opinion on which leads to myths that may not work with the facts. Here at Advanced Lock & Security, we have been in the business for a long time, and here are some of the common myths that we often hear. Take a look and see if any of these sound familiar and, if you have any questions, give us a call.
“My Neighborhood Is Safe”
For many, home security isn’t something that takes up much time or thought. After all, that’s why you chose a safe neighborhood. What is easy to forget is that thieves know that ‘safe’ neighborhoods, like so many blue-collar communities, often provide lax security and easier targets. Typically, the neighborhoods that we feel safest in are upscale, which also provide potential thieves more incentive for bigger scores. Another, somewhat related myth is that “I have nothing valuable inside.” Of course, a burglar won’t know this until the damage is done–and what may be of little value to you may be perfect for the thief’s next fix. Burglars often target simple little things like DVDs, clock radios, ornaments, and unopened bottles of vitamins. When it comes to protecting your most personal domain and safety, it’s worth giving a security system some thought. Call us up at Advanced Lock & Security and let us show you how easy it is to take some simple steps to discourage a break in or invasion of your home.
“It’s Too Expensive”
Sure, if you are looking at a security system the likes that Hollywood celebrities enjoy, you will be looking at an exorbitant price tag–but such systems really aren’t necessary in the average household. The home security business would be pretty small if such high-end systems were the only ones available. We offer a wide variety of home security options and we are certain that you’ll be surprised at just how inexpensive your options are. From simple and inexpensive entry sensors to very affordable home monitoring systems, give us a call and see just how inexpensive quality home security really is at Advanced Lock & Security.
“Home Security Systems Are Hard To Use”
Thanks to advancements in technology, using a home security system can be as easy as the push of a single button. Even more complex systems with cameras and intercoms can be just as easy to use. Many of our customers come from a time before all of the fancy, complicated technology, and we take pride in making your new system easy to understand and operate so you don’t have to have a computer science degree to operate it. Give us a call at Advanced Lock & Security to see just how easy and inexpensive it is to have the peace of mind that comes with a well-secured home.
