Do Home Security Systems Truly Decrease Crime and Home Invasions?
If you are wondering what the answer to this question is, it’s a resounding YES! Security systems for the home do decrease crime, and in particular, terrifying and potentially fatal home invasions.
You may be wondering what is the difference between a ‘burglary’ and a ‘home invasion?’ The following explanation should help:
A burglary usually happens during the day, when people are at work and their home is left unoccupied. This is a crime that is perpetrated without causing harm to human life.
Many burglaries are deterred by security systems such as those from Home Security Concepts, an authorized ADT dealer. These pro-active homeowners and their residences, enjoy the protection of being monitored even when no one’s home, due to state-of-the art alarm system with secured windows and doors and our six monitoring centers that are on constant watch, 24/7.
A home invasion is a different case altogether. A home invasion occurs when criminals know that the residence is occupied, have specifically targeted it and are willing to go to any lengths to get what they want, from you, the unsuspecting homeowner. These are terrifying episodes that run the risk of not only assault, but possible fatality.
These home invasion criminals are intent on gaining entrance to your dwelling and getting what they want, it doesn’t matter if it’s valuable possessions or intentional harm to you and your family, these criminals are out to get you. And they will use extreme force in their quest to get what they desire. They have been known to violently surprise a family by kicking down a door, confront them and take control by using hand cuffs, duct tape and rope. They will often force their victims to divulge their security codes to bank accounts, credit cards and more. And in some cases, the initial violent entry can result in assault or worse.
Don’t let this happen to you and your family.
Can A Home Invasion Be Deterred?
There are ways to deter a home invasion, but hands down, a customized security system from Home Security Concepts, an authorized ADT dealer, is the choice of smart home owners and the method of protection recommended by most insurance companies.
Some sources have suggested that a large dog is the best deterrent to a home invasion. But insurance companies negate this choice. First of all, a large dog, such as a German Shepard or Doberman Pinscher, is often considered a liability by insurance companies due to its aggressive nature and ability to bite, not just a potential criminal, but family, friends, neighbors and children. Most criminals know how to distract a dog and proceed with their crime. And insurance companies do not give discounts on home insurance rates for a dog, but they do offer discounts on rates when a state-of-the-art security system is installed in your home by Home Security Concepts. According to a variety of industry experts, although dogs have their place, insurance companies have stronger confidence in the ability of a well-installed security system and are willing to put their money where their confidence is by offering home insurance discounts.
It’s a scary fact that 1 out of every 5 homes will encounter a violent home intrusion or burglary. The National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) is conducted by a branch of the US Department of Justice known as the Bureau of Justice Statistic and states that over 11,000 of violent home crimes involved some type of sexual assault and in some cases, rape. This disturbing statistic is even scarier considering that there are a number of these types of crimes that never get reported.
It is for these reasons that the highly trained security professionals at Home Security Concepts understand that they have a responsibility of securing your homes, its 
content and most importantly, your family. And it’s with this depth of responsibility that we make ourselves available to answer your security needs and questions and can be there usually the same day to install a system that will deter a home invasion situation.
