- It's too expensive...
Fact - In most cases it is about a dollar a day. Many insurance companies offer up to a 20% discount on home insurance policies.
- The authorities won't respond in time...
Fact - Many responders (police and fire) will respond within minutes of the alarm (usually within five to six minutes.)
- My neighborhood is safe. It won't happen to me...
Fact - Crooks have cars. Essentially everyone who suffered loss by home intrusion or fire at one time felt safe in their home. Unfortunately, that is the one thing that can never be replaced, feeling comfortable in your home after an intrusion.
- My house is protected by "____" (fill in the blank with the animal of choice...)
Fact - Pets are commonly assaulted or attacked during an invasion. In extreme cases they are killed by the intruder. Tragically 40,000 pets die each year due to fires within the home.
- My neighbors watch my home for me...
Fact - No neighbor is able to watch your home 24 hours a day. In many cases they are ill-equipped to respond, putting themselves in harm's way. In many cases, by the time a fire is visibly outside the home a great loss has already occurred.
- My house is not wired and wireless systems are unreliable...
Fact - There are many wired and wireless security systems available. Some security systems are hybrid where you can blend the benefits of traditional wiring with wireless technology. As it relates to wireless technology, wireless security systems have improved dramatically over the past ten years. In most cases, the wireless security system has more features than their hardwired counterpart.
- I don't have anything that insurance cannot replace...
Fact - Insurance is a terrific financial tool to help when a tragedy has occurred. Our job is to minimize or eliminate the event altogether. Insurance companies recognize the benefit of monitored security systems and alarm systems by offering their clients a reduction in their premium costs by up to 20%. Nothing will return the peaceful feeling you used to enjoy prior to the intrusion.
- My pets will cause false alarms...
Fact - This may be true if your system was not designed by a professional. Your pet should be part of the design process using pet friendly products.
- My system will not work if my phone lines are cut...
Fact - Again, this could be true if your system is not designed by a professional. Today consumers are using many different ways to communicate other than traditional land line phones. In many cases, a wireless cellular communicator may be the best primary communicator, not just for back up communications.
- I cannot afford it / My credit is too low...
