    Professionally Installed vis-à-vis DIY Home Security System

    With a professionally installed security system, someone from the company will expound you about all the available plans, type, and quantity of equipment that is right up to your alley. They may skew the equipment package if required. This will save hours and days of straining when it comes to the size of your home, the complexity of the systems, and your technical abilities. However, it can also result in paying a lot of money for a long-term contract costing 100$ or more (cost an arm and a leg).

    While installing a DIY System like Kangaroo, it requires an activation fee and disposal of long-term contracts. It requires you to study and vetting of a device to install it properly and for its seamless operation. They have a step by step instructions laid out and phone support to make your job cushy.

    DIY Equipment has been in use in recent years but they are too complex when it comes to fulfilling your security requirements. For a small condo with a few doors and windows, DIY can be fine. However, for more specialized needs, a professional company is to be bank upon.

    Basic Home Security to Limit Crime

    Concerning the increasing rate of crimes, a robust home security system like Kangaroo comes to rescue as a barebone of protection. Any system, in general, in today’s time, should entail at the bare minimum:

    • Indoor and Outdoor security cameras.
    • Exterior lights accompanied by motion sensors.
    • Sensors on all doors and windows.
    • A high-decibel siren to ward off intruders.
    • Motion detectors.
    • Ability to remotely monitor your systems using your smartphones.
    • Cellular backup if Wi-Fi goes down or power goes off.

    Home Security Statistics

    74% of survey respondents said that the home security system makes them feel safe.

    A video doorbell is another most popular security product (18%) with a professionally monitored home security system.

    Home security product ownership is most popular amongst 18-34 years aged persons with 41% owning a security system.

    Conclusion

    As challenges have advanced, so have the solutions. People are in the lookout for those systems that are keeping pace with the latest technology to meet growing needs.

    In general, if you have to rate any home security as the best that will entirely depend on your needs and living situations.
