You worked hard to put yourself in a position to afford that dream weekend cruiser you always wanted. Most likely it was a car you loved when you were growing up and set your mind on buying one at some point in your life. Now you have it. Is it protected properly?
How many people
have their dream car properly secured with an appropriate security system?
Probably not many.
I previously
thought that if you wanted a really quality system you needed to pay a monthly
monitoring fee to one of the big companies such as ADT or Brinks. I soon found
out this was not the case at all. You can actually build an effective system on
your own for far less money than those companies. Only 12.9% of burglars are
caught throughout the whole country.
I often talk to
many people on the various discussion boards I am a member of and a lot of them
are in the same boat I was, they had no idea what they could do for so little
money. As a result of technology advancing so quickly you can actually buy colour
video cameras, a set of three for roughly $170. You can add in a recording
device for even less than that. You can buy motion sensors that will turn
lights on in your home if any motion is detected in your yard. You can attach
speakers that give off the sound of an angry barking dog when motion is
detected. I don’t know about you but if I were a crook looking to break in and
steal something, like a car, I would not go to the house with the angry dog in
the garage. There are endless amounts of possibilities on what you can do to
protect your house, garage, or more importantly, that weekend toy. One thing I
will be doing for sure is the cameras. In the event my car is stolen this will
increase the chances my car will be found or the person that stole my car will
be caught because I will have video proof of who took it.
