Sure, you regularly lock your doors and windows. Is that enough to protect your family and your valuables? According to the National Burglar and Fire Alarm Association, over 2 million American homes are broken into and robbed every year. Buying a home security system can help protect the things that are most important to you.

We don't sell security systems ourselves, and we don't recommend any particular home security company or brands. Instead, we try to help you get the security you need for a good price.

Then you can choose to speak with one of our Purchasing Advisors who will walk you through the process and handle any issues or questions that arise. Our Advisors provide these services and more:

  • Mediate issues with home security companies

One important recommendation we make up front as that for real safety, you should choose a monitored security system: one that is connected to a monitoring company that can call the police if there is evidence of a problem. "Alarm only" systems do nothing except sound loud bells or horns – which can actually cause more problems than it solves, if it causes a burglar to panic while he is in the house with you. Monitored alarms can include audible alarms – but they also alert the police for much greater safety.

Questions to ask

The best way to compare home security providers is to ask detailed questions.

  • How long have you been selling home security systems?
  • What monitoring companies do you work with?
  • What response time do you get from the police in my area?
  • Do you do the installations?
  • Do you guarantee your work?
  • How long of a contract do you require?
  • Do you have technicians on call if there's a problem with my system?
