here's an idea: frontpointsecurity.com they are rated #1 for 2013-2014 as far as in home security companies go. You refer me or I refer you: $100 Amazon gift card to you and me both, they also give you the 1st month free, I pay $41.99 a month for coverage including the app on my phone and I couldnt be happier. It's all wireless with an upfront $100 equipment charge - including as loud ass 130db siren. I have 3 door sensors (one for the garage), glass break sensor, and 5 window sensors. I have my system set up to where the alarm goes off immediately, no delay, but it has a 30 second delay until they calls the police and report an active B&E (CPD charges u $100 after the first 2 alarm drops every year) Anways its not just an alarm drop when the substation gets notified (or so they say lol) Active B&E's cops take pretty seriously bec they dont want to deal with the home owner shooting someone or shit being missing...more pp work. Needless to say they run code and they arrive as quickly as they can. Front Point also calls you on two phone #'s on file and u dont answer they imediately call the police. So in essence if someone does break into your shit....they do have some time, but no a lot to take your stuff. I split the cost w my gf, so it technically costs like like $24 a month. I'm sure some others might chime in, but for ME - it's worth the $$.
