What do you guys use for a home alarm system other than guns, cannons, dogs, etc. Looked at ADT and they were a little expensive. Who do you use and how much was installation and what's your monthly price? Thanks

In BR I use Guardian Protection. Free install, very nice system, 44.99/month one year contract. In Houston I have Monitronics. Pretty much the same deal except they force a 3 year contract. Very nice systems though and all controlled by an app on your phone.

I have the basically the same with a company named Acme Alarm out of Denham Springs. I don't remember what I paid, if anything, to have it installed b/c I got it installed over 4 years but I didn't have to sign any contracts. I pay $32.50/month. It's operated over a cellular connection and I have an app on my phone to control everything. If I ever want to add video surveillance, I'm able to do that as well via the app.

Door Jamb Armor on all the entrances.

SimpliSafe.

Security laminated windows.

Wireless camera system.

That's in order of priority as well.

Alarm Center. Installation free with a contract( 3 years I believe). It was around $35.00 a month.

I currently have Custom but just for monitoring. How much was it to add-on cameras?

The monthly cost was free, but the cost of the cameras and DVR was about 1,200 dollars if I remember correctly.

Combo of wink and go control sensors for exterior with simplesafe for "real" protection. I have rooms that aren't used that much but have a common core. The core is simplisafe, but wink will set off an audible alarm be before that but isn't monitored.
