Most people dread the thought of coming home and finding their home has been broken into. The feeling of violation and loss can be overwhelming. Let's take a look at some of the facts of burglary:

• 80% of all burglars enter through a first floor entryway ¹

• A residential or business burglary occurs every 11 seconds ¹

• 50% of all felony - murders occur during a burglary or robbery ¹

• Homes with monitored security systems are three times less likely to be broken into than those without ¹

A monitored security system is a good defense against burglary. This package comes with up to three (3) door/window sensors to protect the first floor accessible entries. It also comes with a high powered siren to notify those nearby that the system has been breached and deter the burglar from proceeding with the crime. Most importantly, it can automatically dial up the ADT monitoring center to notify the proper authorities.

ADT offers more than just protection against burglary. One of the leading causes of property and life loss in the United States is fire.

• Fire occurs every 57 seconds ¹

• Fires accounted for $4.9 billion of residential property loss in 1996 ¹

• Usually fire only gives families 1 - 2 minutes to escape ¹

• Within three minutes from bursting into flames, a fire may consume the contents, walls and ceiling of the room where it started, and the combination of heat and carbon monoxide can kill everyone in the immediate area. The fire may double in volume every 30 seconds ¹

The system comes standard with a fire panic button that the consumer can use to manually notify the monitoring center of a fire. They then immediately notify the fire department.

 

HOME SECURITY

has never been more NECESSARY.

We all know the risks.

 

Crime is a way of life today. Every 11 seconds a burglary is committed in the United States ¹.  49% of the burglaries occur during the day ¹. 13% result in a confrontation with the homeowner ¹. 1 in 3 robberies result in the victim being assaulted ¹. No wonder many of us live in fear.
