Do Home alarms work?

Do Home alarms work?Do you ever wonder if the security systems are successful in crime prevention? The quick reply is yes. Studies have shown that your home is much less likely to be attacked, in the first place, by burglars and robbers simply by providing a security system. Exactly how efficient a security system can be in securing your home we will clarify.

Burglars are much less likely to target a home that has noticeable security system elements in place (think cameras, lighting, stickers/signs) than a home that appears vulnerable, according to three distinct research conducted by two universities and the National Institute of Justice. Although each analysis took place at a different location and at various times, the findings were largely similar.

Security cameras are of particular aid in preventing crimes.

A large number of well-monitored cameras have proven successful in lowering crime levels in public places in a report that analyzed the impact of security cameras on public (not residential) surveillance. Such deterred crimes saved expenses covered the expense of the security equipment. Likewise, even seeing a surveillance camera — whether it’s genuine or a practical fake — will dissuade a lot of the burglars from entering a house. Burglars don’t want to be seen or filmed and even in an empty house, cameras make it much more likely to happen. Cameras were also effective in disrupting active crimes. Thanks to the state-of-the-art technology, cameras with motion detection settings can be identified and programmed to text or email you when activated. This lets you know if anyone is in your home right away, so you can call the police so take appropriate action to improve the chances of stopping or catching the intruder.

Well-positioned cameras can also help the stolen products recover. For example, a Texas father was able to watch the surveillance footage from the camera mounted over his front porch in December 2012 and find out that a UPS worker had stolen a Christmas package off the porch, and eventually the item was replaced.
