I have mentioned this before, but it is important to be repeated. Advertise that you have an alarm system. Alarm systems work great at deterring burglars away from your home.

Nobody wants to be threatened by criminals in their home. No one wants to be the target of a burglary. An alarm system helps to keep these types of situations from happening.

Why is it then important to advertise you have a security system? If the alarm system works so great in identifying break-ins why take the time to advertise it? What is the purpose if the security system will do just fine on its own?

The answer is, to stop the break-in from happening in the first place. Of course the alarm system will be able to go off and alert people in the cases where individuals try to break in to a home. Advertising ahead of time that there is an alarm in your home to begin with will normally stop burglars from trying to enter your home.

Home security companies actually issue security signs and window decals for this purpose. Decals and signs are an effective deterrent and do a great job of letting the community know that you have a security network set up in your home. Burglars usually stake out the neighborhoods they are thinking of breaking in to, and a sign posted in the front yard is an easy warning sign for them to look out for.

Burglars do not want to get caught. They will easily pick homes that do not have security systems in place already. Why attempt to burglarize a home with home protection when they can easily break in to a home that does not have a home security system?

Decals and signs also are low cost, since they are provided by your security company when you sign up with them. They are very simple and easy to install. Little effort or time needs to be used to place decals and signs around your home.

The point of decals are to have them be seen, so take that in to consideration when placing them around your home. It is especially important to place them on windows near your front and back doors, and your front windows. If the decals cannot be easily spotted from a distance consider moving them to a different area where they can be seen.
