Home Security Cameras Are More Important Than Ever For These 4 Reasons
Cameras remain one of the most effective forms of home security available today. Despite advancements in technology, you can’t go wrong with a good camera setup in your home security system, and it couldn’t be more important!
1. Break-ins are still occurring in massive numbers
While home security has come a long way in recent decades, the sad truth is there are still many would-be intruders out there looking to break into a home. It’s hard to imagine, but there are over 2.5 million break-ins each year in the US, a massive 66% of which are home break-ins.
So, even if you feel you stay in a safe neighborhood or have nothing of value worth stealing, it’s still well worth having home security cameras to protect you, your family, and your property.
2. Break-ins are more likely to occur while you’re away from home
Unfortunately, there are many skilled burglars out there, and these are the people that know all the best times to attempt a break-in, which is most likely when you are away from your home.
The majority of home break-ins occur between 6am and 6pm, which is when most people are not in their homes, making the property a much easier target. However, with a good security camera set up, you are less likely to be targeted, and should your home be robbed then you will have footage to help capture the culprit.
3. Smart technology
One of the best advancements for home security is smart technology. The ability to check your home security system from a smartphone is nothing short of incredible, greatly enhancing your ability to monitor and manage home security.
In fact, there has never been a better time than now to invest in home security thanks to smart technology! Most modern camera systems come with live stream features that allow you to view the camera feed from your phone or computer, meaning you can always check up on your security no matter where you are.
This is espiecally useful for people that were previously anxious about leaving their home unattended, as you can receive live updates of any security breaches – home security has never been easier.
4. Home security cameras are very affordable
Not everyone could afford a home security camera, even just 10 or 20 years ago, especially considering the complex (and therefore costly) installation required. Now, home security cameras are available to accommodate all budgets, with many capable of being installed by the homeowner.
Even the simplest home security camera makes the world of a difference!
