"TopSecuritySystems.net believes that it shouldn't be hard for consumers to find the best home security system for their needs, and their rankings are intended to make it easy," said Kurtis York of Top Security Systems. "If consumers want to make sure they are getting a great system, there are several important features they should look for when choosing a company."
Multiple Detection Types
One such feature is the ability to do more than detect break-ins. A good alarm system can also detect fire, high carbon monoxide levels, flooding, and even freezing. "Since many companies offer systems that can do all of these things at reasonable prices, there's no need to settle for a basic unit," York said.
Manual Activation Capabilities
Good systems also add the capability for manual activation. Such packages typically include the ability to summon medical help at the push of a button. This can allow users to report incidents that don't trigger automatic reporting. The ability to manually summon police or fire units is also common, and allows users to get help even before a situation has triggered the system's normal detection monitors.
Live Video Monitoring
"Another capability that is becoming more and more common is live video monitoring. Systems with this capability let users log on away from home to see what's going on within range of the cameras. They can also send video feeds to the monitoring company. This ability makes it easy to determine what types of personnel, if any, need to be sent out when an alarm goes off," York noted.
Wireless Burglary Detection
Other important features TopSecuritySystems.net looks for include redundant monitoring centers, storm backups, and wireless burglary detection. "Wireless monitoring is essential in this day and age," York said. "Everyone has seen movies where burglars cut the wires on traditional alarm systems. Real-life burglars have seen those shows too, so they look for wired systems in order to copy the movies. If there are no wires, the wire-cutting technique can't work. Therefore, all security systems should have wireless monitoring devices."
Length and Quality of Company History
Finally, the site looks at how long the security company has been in business. A firm that just opened its doors may be good, but there's no real way to know that. Houston home security companies that have been in business for years, on the other hand, have had a chance to accumulate both good and bad reviews. "Of course, a company has to have great reviews to make it to the Top 5 list," York added.
While these aspects factor highly into TopSecuritySystems.net's ratings system, they aren't the only ones. York said that the site also considers things like how many sensors each alarm system offers as part of the basic package, contract length, and price.
"By adding everything together, we can determine which systems provide the best value to customers and which companies are the best at providing ongoing service. This information allows consumers to avoid making expensive mistakes when choosing alarms and services. It also ensures that the chosen companies offer great security along with their great prices."
