Make Sure Your Home Security System is Working for You.
The best way to avoid a home break-in is a properly installed home security system, but every system relies on you to make it effective:
- Arm your system EVERY time you leave the house, no matter how long you intend to be away. Most break-ins happen in a matter of minutes.
- Place signs in your yard and stickers on your windows. Make it obvious that your home has a security system.
- An unmonitored system is practically no security at all. To be effective, the intrusion signal must be sent to a monitoring station with the ability to dispatch the Constable or Police. Your alarm must also be permitted by the City of Houston.
