Video
doorbell services have seemed to pop up everywhere in the past couple
of years, from kiosks at a shopping mall to television infomercials.
With so much technology, products, and features, the whole process
may feel overwhelming. One truth exists among all of the security
products: nothing beats professional installation and services.
The
idea of a video doorbell system is great, but you need to know the
differences between your options. Learn about these differences and
the advantages of choosing a professional company.
1.
Professional Installation
When
purchasing a majority of consumer video doorbells, the devices will
typically come with a package and some do-it-yourself instructions. A
professional security company will not only install the video
doorbell system, but test out all of the features to ensure
everything runs smoothly.
One
of the biggest issues a professional can check whether or not you
have the proper internet speed to stream videos. Wi-Fi signals may be
weak, or the home's internet package may not be fast enough. With
proper testing, the exact problems will be taken into account so the
video doorbell works to the best of its ability.
The
professional installation also ensures the proper angle is set up and
everything can be seen in the front door area. This elimination of
blind spots increases the security your home has.
2.
Expanded Security Measures
When
a video doorbell is sold, the product is often a stand-alone security
measure with no integration with any other security products the home
may have. The use of professional security services will ensure your
home has an easy to use integrated system.
The
video doorbell may help with the security of the front door on your
home, people don't always come to the porch; they may try to break in
through another area. A security company may install motion sensors
and alarms on any vulnerable points of your home in addition to the
doorbell.
The
areas may include windows, basement entries, or other doors. Along
with alerting the home owners, the company itself offers a monitoring
service. Maybe you're in a place with no cell service or poor data.
By allowing the professional surveillance team to take over with any
alerts, they can contact proper authorities if an issue arises.
In
a home break-in, every second counts and the extra layer of security
makes a big difference.
3.
Home Security DVR and Additional Cameras
Another
big step to add to the video doorbell are additional cameras. Just
the addition of one camera on the front exterior of a home may alert
you before someone even comes to the doorbell. You may spot an
unknown car or see a person walking on the sidewalk and towards your
home. All of these angles may showcase possible burglars or porch
pirates.
With
all the cameras on one system, you keep all of the feeds organized
and easy to watch. Easily switch between cameras, including the video
doorbell. The installation of a professional home
security DVR will also keep a library of video footage to look back
on if a suspicious incident occurs.
4.
Upgrades, Maintenance & Repairs
Like
many products, the purchase of a video doorbell may come with a
warranty or limited service, but problems or product malfunction
often requires the purchase of a brand new one. With a new one, the
set-up needs to be done all over again.
With
a professional video doorbell, the use of a security company also
comes with service options. Cameras may be repaired, upgraded, or
maintained as needed. With a local worker, repairs are completed
quickly and there is little to no downtime without a video doorbell
monitoring your home.
The
advantages of a professional security company goes a long way in
giving you the comfort of having a safe and protected home. For more
