An ADT outdoor siren can be an added level of protection for your home security system. Just seeing an outdoor siren is often enough of a deterrent for a burglar to simply pass your home. The outdoor siren lets everyone know that you have a security system and if they try to break in the whole neighborhood will know.

Home phones are now antiques.

Most new homeowners are deciding to not go with any home phone service since everyone in the family has a mobile phone. For years security systems used the home phone line to communicate to the central station. A few years ago, people had cellular backup units for their home alarm system in case a burglar cut the phone line. However, until recently you could not have two way voice security monitoring without a home phone line. 

False Alarm Ordinances 

False alarm ordinances are in place to reduce the number of fake reports that emergency resources respond to where they are not needed. This could potentially divert emergency personnel away from legitimate emergencies.  Most false alarms are due to user error and can be prevented. Some cities require homeowners to have a verified audio response system which helps to reduce false alarms. Police departments are starting to charge residents for false alarms. Make sure to register your alarm with your city and get an alarm permit!
