Brighton, East Sussex ( prsafe ) May 18, 2012 - The summer holiday season is approaching. We all worry about home security when we're away for a couple of weeks says Paul Edwards, the CEO of Shadow Surveillance. Coming back to a burgled house is something we all fear and would ruin even the best of holidays. Even the fear of what might happen to your home when you're away can nag away whilst you should be enjoying yourself.

Basic Home Security

Paul says that there are a number of things that we should all do. These include secure locks on doors and windows, a burglar alarm and having a trusted neighbour keep an eye on things. For most of the time these things are enough but what about when you're away? For example, what happens if the alarm goes off and there's nobody to check it out?

Professional Security Services

The obvious answer says Paul, is to have a professional security company such as Shadow Surveillance hold a set of your keys and monitor your alarm. Most modern burglar alarms can alert a third party if they are set off. A professional security company, like Shadow Surveillance, should be able to get to your house within an average of twenty minutes after being notified of an alarm. They would also be able to call a neighbour to alert them immediately. If necessary the police can be called.

An alarm response visit can make sure things are OK (if it's a false alarm) and reset the alarm system. If there has been a problem then they can make sure that your home is secure, check whether the intruders are still there and call the police.

Such an arrangement would give you greater peace of mind whilst you're supposed to be enjoying yourself. It would also ensure that if an intrusion did happen then immediate steps would be taken.



Professional Security is Affordable

The obvious concern is cost. However, the cost is affordable and great value when you consider the benefits: peace of mind and security. For example; Shadow Surveillance charge as little as £12 a month for their key holding and alarm response service. Call out charges are from £25 per instance.

Contact Shadow Surveillance through their website or call 08454 301301 now for a no obligation security consultation and a quote for an alarm response and monitoring service.

Shadow Surveillance staff are experienced in the use of new technologies to improve security and have also introduced other services, such as remote CCTV operation, that can help to improve security.
