What the heck does the worst car *ever* designed have to do with your Security System? |

Hope you’re having a great week. I received a call from a prospect last week inquiring about Electronic Eye Security’s 72 point security audit. He wanted to find out if his business was adequately protected from burglary, robbery and theft. His business had a security system already installed by a national alarm company and he was looking to reactivate the service.

Upon arriving at his business I went ahead and performed our 72 point audit and was quite amused at how vulnerable his business was to burglary, robbery and theft considering it already had a “so called” functioning security system. One of the things that always stands out about these systems is the lack of security IQ of the installing company. The designer of this security system put about as much thought into the security design as the designers did of the 1975 AMC Pacer. Congratulations AMC your groovy car was uno number for the most idiotic car ever made. Go to “Top 10 most idiotic cars of all time”

Now I know what you’re saying, “Hey all security systems are the same, genius: couple of door contacts, infrared and a keypad and poof, no more bad guys will ever try to break in again! Besides, I live and work in a good neighborhood and I have alarm stickers on my windows.

Well I’m sorry to inform you, but the crooks are laughing all the way to the pawn shop with your stuff with that kind of thinking. One thing I will give you is that all alarms systems are pretty much the same until you get broken into or you have false alarms.

This is where rubber hits the road and your hard earned money either goes to paying for a security system that a seven year old burglar could defeat or to a police department that loves to respond to false alarms at $200.00 – $300.00 a pop.

Word of advice, demand a complete audit of your home or business from your alarm company and make sure that they pay for False Alarms caused by their equipment or better yet just go to www.thesecuritygenius.com and order up your home or business security audit for free!
