Home security systems are designed to protect your home and your belongings. They work around the clock, whether you are at home or away. At Versatile Insurance Planners, the agents can help residents living in the San Antonio, TX area discover the benefits of having a home security system installed in their home.

A Deterrent for Burglars

Many home security systems offer small signs for the yard or stickers for windows that will alert potential burglars that the home has an active security system. Many won’t take the risk and will leave the property alone. 

Notifies the Authorities If An Alert is Triggered

Home security systems that are monitored by a third-party monitoring center will notify the authorities if an alert is triggered. This is true for both break-ins and fire or smoke alarms. Although some systems notify the owner first, some will automatically send an alert to local emergency response teams.

Discounts on Insurance Premiums

Many insurance companies realize the benefits of having a home security system and will offer discounted premiums to homeowners and renters who purchase and maintain a system. The additional security can save lives if the family is at home and a fire breaks out, or someone tries to break into the home. This dramatically reduces the risk of loss in terms of both life and property.
