Your home is your castle and you have to be able to protect
it. You have spent your hard earned money on buying things for your home and
you don’t want anyone to break in and steal your stuff. In this day and age home security is really important. When I
was younger it was safe to leave your doors unlocked or your garage door open
when you were not home and you didn’t even think twice. Of course we lived in a
safe community. Now, you wouldn’t dream of doing that. Thieves are now going to
those once quiet neighborhoods and looking for unlocked doors and open garages
to help themselves. Especially now that we are so technology advanced with our
smart phones, iPads, and 3DTV’s.
Unfortunately we are not sure about our safety when we leave our homes
or go to sleep. Thankfully there are
the most up to date home security systems
that will protect our homes from theft, fire, carbon monoxide, flooding and
leaks. They also have sensors that will go off if your pipes burst. That would
be great for when you go away during the holidays and you live in a cold
climate. It is like having someone home
while you are away. I remember when I was young I had a friend with a security
system and it was really sensitive and would go off if we shut her bedroom door
too hard, which was all the time. We would get in trouble for that. Now security systems are pet friendly so, now
your crazy dog won’t set off the alarm if there is a bug or a ball they want to
play with in your home.
Days of waiting for the alarm system guy to install are
over. I hate having people in my home installing things. If I can do it myself
that makes me happy, they now have alarm systems you can install yourself. You
can get a wireless home security system. You don’t have to be an electrician to install it. You don’t have to worry about all kinds of
wires or holes in your walls to wire it.
You can actually take the system with you when you move, so it is really
a great investment. You don’t have to
worry about moving in to a home where there is already a system and wonder if
the previous owner gave it out to people or go through the trouble of changing
it and being put on hold like you once did. Forget learning a new alarm system.
You are already familiar with it and in the habit of turning it on. You
can have all of this protection for less than fifty cents a day.
I hope no one experiences a break-in or a fire and everyone
stays safe in the New Year and always.
