o Compare their product’s features, costs, after sales service, reputation, and warranty. Check references by other customers and see if they are satisfied with the product and the firm. Ask them if the system is reliable and if it did send any alarms when needed and if the local authorities responded quickly. Ask them if the features of the products were explained carefully and if all contracts were straightforward without any hidden clauses.

o Usually the firms send representatives to check your home and assess your security needs, listing limitations if there are any. The number of motion or contact sensors, cameras, lighting needs etc. that may be needed will be listed by him. Once you have an accurate security needs analysis done, you can invest within your budget to get the maximum possible security. It always helps to invest in a good home security system as insurance companies offer a discount on policies if good security cover is provided.

Make sure that the system will be serviced regularly and has power back-up facilities in case of power outages. Be sure to understand how to operate it. It will be better if the company had a good technical staff to guide you, in case you need their help.
