There’s an old joke that goes something like this: two hikers come across a bear unexpectedly. After the animal roars, they turn to sprint back in the direction they came. The first hiker exclaims: “We'll never outrun the bear!” His companion replies: “I don’t have to outrun the bear, I just have to outrun you!”
Is Your Home Security System the Worst in Your Neighborhood?
It’s an amusing little story, but it’s one that actually applies pretty well to home security. You see, you don’t have to have a perfect system in place to keep burglars and thieves away from your property – you just have to have better security than everyone around you.
Robbers aren’t sophisticated criminals looking to pull off huge heists. Most often, they are unmotivated individuals committing crimes of opportunity. They want to find easy victims so they can steal a few things to sell or trade for drugs. If you have great protection around your home, they’ll probably take their attention elsewhere.
A Good Security Alarm System is a Strong Deterrent
Think about it this way: if you are going to break into the house, would you go for the one with the simple lock and key, or one that had multiple cameras and a state-of-the-art alarm? It would be a pretty easy choice, wouldn’t it?
