Local Alarm System Companies vs Nationwide Home Security Companies

You’ve probably already come across the ads of larger home security companies. Frontpoint Security, LiveWatch and Protect America are all recognized named in the industry. They provide stellar service across the U.S., ensuring the same quality everywhere. And this is the keyword for nationwide home security companies. To satisfy as much customers as possible –regardless of their geographical location – they made sure their equipment is the same for everyone. The same three or four color variations, same design, same benefits. This can also be spotted in the setup process of each system.

Contrary to the overly simplified offers of national security providers, local alarm companies tailor the service to match the customer’s every need. They do listen more to people’s demands, and the customer support is also more reactive. In addition to this, they heavily emphasize professional installation, which is a double-edged service. Seniors and people without handicraft skills welcome the possibility to have someone come over to their house, and do the dirty work them. Technicians also know which spot is right for the alarms, and how to maximize their efficiency. Sadly, professional installation consumes more time, it costs more and requires upfront payment, and someone needs to stay at home to watch over the work. Still, you sleep better knowing that your home security system was set up by experts.
