Home is where we should feel safest—but peace of mind doesn’t happen by accident. A professionally installed home security system is more than just an alarm—it’s a proactive defense against crime that can both catch intruders and deter them before they ever step foot on your property.
At Crime Prevention Security Systems (CPSS), we help homeowners take smart, effective steps to safeguard what matters most. Here’s why upgrading your home security system isn’t just protection—it’s a powerful investment.
A System That Works Around the Clock
A modern security system from CPSS can include:
-
Alarm monitoring for doors, windows, fire, and carbon monoxide
-
Surveillance cameras placed strategically indoors and out
-
Electronic locks and smart access control
Not only do these systems alert you and authorities when something’s wrong—they discourage criminals from targeting your home in the first place. In fact, a study from the University of North Carolina found that 60% of convicted burglars would choose a different target if they spotted a visible security system.
The Real Cost of a Burglary
While burglary rates in many areas are trending down, the financial impact of a single break-in is still significant. The average loss from a home burglary—including stolen property and damage to doors or windows—can exceed $2,300. And that number can rise dramatically for higher-income households.
Think of your security system as a form of loss prevention: an upfront investment that could save you thousands.
Visibility Is a Powerful Deterrent
When you install a system with CPSS, we provide window decals and yard signs to let would-be intruders know your home is protected. We also recommend installing visible security cameras in high-traffic areas—like driveways, entryways, and backyards. This sends a clear message: This home is not an easy target.
Burglars are far more likely to move on when they see the risk of being caught on camera or triggering an alarm.
Complete Your Security Strategy
Even without an alarm system, there are several ways to make your home less appealing to criminals:
-
Install motion-activated exterior lighting
-
Upgrade to reinforced locks and deadbolts
-
Avoid broadcasting travel plans on social media
But to truly protect your home 24/7, a comprehensive security system from CPSS ties it all together—and keeps you in control, even when you’re away.
Security Is More Than a Cost—It’s a Smart Investment
Some homeowners hesitate to install a security system, viewing it as just another expense. But there are real financial advantages, including:
-
Discounts on homeowner’s insurance
-
Increased property value and resale appeal
-
Reduced risk of costly break-ins
At CPSS, we work with you to customize a system that fits your budget and lifestyle. From monitored alarms to smart home automation, we offer reliable solutions that help you feel secure—at home and away.
