Be Aware: Recent Indy Home Invasions
One of the most welcomed advances is in smart home security technology. There are few things more disturbing than a home break-in. To make matters worse, thieves steal more than just your personal property. They steal your peace of mind and sense of security. They leave you and your family feeling violated and afraid in your own home.
Traditional security systems are designed to utilize glass break sensors and motion detectors primarily on main and basement level floors. In fact, according to ADT, only a daring 2% of burglars will go for the second-story window. In recent months, however, there have been a series of break-ins in which thieves are employing ladders to gain access to homes via second floor master bedrooms. They are stealing jewelry and other valuables, and escaping back down the ladder. Most homes with traditional security systems don’t have sensors and detectors on the second story. These thieves manage to walk away without triggering the alarm. Also disturbing is that some of these break-ins are occurring during daylight hours.
Smart home security technology takes it to the next level with technology that uses sensors in all spaces of your home. You can activate your security system from anywhere in the world using your smart phone while also monitoring your property at any given time.
We’d like to encourage you to be vigilant, to arm your security system not only while you are away, but when you and your family are home. If you have concerns, are interested in increasing the security of your home, or would like to make an appointment for an evaluation, please contact us to schedule an appointment.
