Are you concerned about your home safety and security? What level of security would you be happy with? Do you have a family and home to protect or is it just yourself. Are you afraid of using guns, pepper spray or a stun gun?

There will always be a lot of questions that need answers when it comes to your safety or your families safety. What are you comfortable with. Do you just want an alarm system like ADT that you see on TV or do you want something much more elaborate?

Considering I’m a single male of 63 years I’m very comfortable with guns, pepper spray or anything else needed to deter someone from doing harm to me. I don’t need fancy alarm systems or video cameras. What I need is a good secure door in the front and back and good window locks. If you want to get into my house you’re going to have to make some noise and I’m a light sleeper.

Though video security systems in many homes and businesses are very good there are times when they don’t seem like they are enough. Many people don’t want to move due to crime, and they have to find new ways to protect their family. Some like to add video security cameras to their systems. Though this will not stop someone in some cases, it does make it much easier to identify and prosecute them in the future. It will depend on what type you get.

Video cameras the size of postage stamps can be procured for under $100, and will certainly become even smaller and cheaper. If you get video security cameras that are hidden, they won’t be a deterrent, though they will do the job of recording what is going on.
