Unfortunately as our economy keeps getting worse, instances of vandalism and theft from the home have been on the rise. As I was watching the news the other day, I was astounded to see that a suburban IL girl with cerebral palsy even had her tricycle stolen from her family’s garage. Granted after the news special, the tricycle was found and returned…but honestly, as a society are we getting to the point where nothing is sacred? Where kids feel that they are just entitled to TAKE anything they want without WORKING for it?
4-Camera Outdoor Home Security Camera System
I would like to say that this type of news story was unusual, but it isn’t. And the number of this type of occurance that never even makes the news is growing too. Just check your local newspaper’s police blotter. For example, here is the Naperville Police Blotter from the neighborhood surrounding our Naperville, IL Platinum CCTV Showroom. Some of you may have heard of Naperville before…it has been voted one of the Best Places to Live in the US for years straight. A pretty well-off neighborhood, but by reading the police blotter, you certainly wouldn’t think it was a great place to live…
No neighborhood in the US hasn’t been affected in some way with an increase in crime, vandalism and theft, and much of this increase has been affecting homes. Many homeowners already have an alarm system in their home. This is GREAT to help protect against home invasions and burglaries if the alarm is set religiously. However, even the best Alarm system does not help protect against vandalism and burglary.
Home Security Cameras can help pick up where an alarm systems lets off. Home Security Cameras can be used to monitor your driveway, entry doors, garage, backyard, patio, etc. These DVR (Digital Video Recorder) systems provide constant video coverage of your home. While Alarm systems are not activated when someone is approaching your house, a DVR home security camera system IS activated whenever motion is detected, and will provide you with VIDEO EVIDENCE when something occurs at your home.
Hidden Indoor Home Security Camera
The benefits go beyond just providing video when someone is vandalizing or stealing from you, these cameras can also be used to monitor your children who are playing outside in the yard from inside the home or even from work, see who is pulling into your driveway and more. Inside home security cameras can also be added, which will allow you to monitor the nanny or maid who are working inside your home.
Yet everyday we hear from customers who are NOW ready to buy a system, only AFTER something occurs at their home, and someone vandalizes or steals their property. Unfortunately, by this time, something has ALREADY OCCURRED and the homeowner has already had to pay for damages that have occurred at his home. While we are glad that they are protecting themselves from future occurrences, we wish that people would consider systems BEFORE something happens.

- We genuinely hope that you will never have the need to use your system…but hope you have it in place, just in case you do need it -
