I'm thinking of getting one of these. What system do you have and do you like it?

I use ADT at my own home. After installation we contacted the police department who came out and performed a security inspection of the home and issued us a signed certificate. We turned this in to our homeowners insurance company, and actually saved enough on our homeowners insurance to pay for the monthly monitoring.

We have a home made system. It involves having certain objects placed next to other objects, so that when one falls, everything will fall and create a loud noise. How genius is that? It makes me feel very safe at night.

We've had a Brinks monitored system for several years now and have been very happy with them. I think it runs about $27.00 a month or thereabouts. We didn't wire all the windows, rather have motion detectors in certain key places. Beyond normal alarm mode, we use the chime that goes off every time a door is opened to monitor kids coming and going. The signs and decals you get when you sign up are about the biggest deterrent.

I have ADT on my home. The monthly monitoring is like $35 a month, and the initial setup was about $1,100. From what I hear it's more than what the Brinks charges for basically the same service. Live and learn I guess.

I also use ADT and have had it for about 11 years now. I have never had a problem with the system and have been very happy with it. The rates are reasonable and the service thus far has been good.

This reminds me of the movie Conspiracy Theory; Hollywood makes it seem easy but it's not the greatest idea.
