The management at Security Home Inspections decided to ring in the New Year by giving their website a makeover. The new site has a more modern appearance, has been integrated with Securitys social media accounts, and is now optimized for mobile devices, allowing the company to easily connect with new and existing customers.
Owner and founder Patty Thornberry was looking to update Securitys website in the hopes of building a better online presence for the Carmel-based business and generating some more business for the company. The intuitive layout and revamped graphics seem to being paying off, as the company has seen an increase in traffic to the site and appointment requests since the launch.
Along with presenting a more modern image, the revised website has also allowed Security Home Inspections to connect more with its customers through social media. By incorporating the companys Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and blog feed into the website, Andy Stone Director of Public Relations at Security is now able to keep clients in-the-know about important happenings. This includes the latest news about the company receiving the coveted Angies List Super Service Award for 2013.
In addition, Security gave its Resources section a refresher that allows users easy access to videos, brochures, and other media that provide everything from DIY household tricks to useful details about the home inspection process. There is even a Frequently Asked Questions page to address all essential questions buyers and sellers may have regarding the necessity of a home inspection.
Thornberry and Stone recruited The Web Guys, a website design firm in Carmel, to assist them in revising the look, feel, and layout of the website. The Web Guys specialize in website development and search marketing for companies nationwide.

Security takes Woody's toy gun -

Mr HomeBuilder
Dont mess around with airport security when it comes to guns, even if its a tiny toy gun.
Security staff at Heathrow airport confiscated a miniature six-shooter from a Woody doll from Toy Story fame because they thought it was a terrorist risk.
- John Hazen
The dolls owner John Hazen snapped a picture of Woody's pat down as it was happening.
The guy said 'we have a serious problem with your bag. Theres a metal shape object in your bag that looks like a gun,' Hazen told FoxNews.com.
He said that the security agent was very cordial and even checked with his superiors to see if they had to confiscate the gun. They ultimately did, but left Woody to be on his way.
Hazen said he posted the image on Reddit, with the caption, "security just confiscated his 'weapon, keep the world safe boys..., and then got on the plane.
A few hours when he landed in California, he was met with a flurry of comments on his post, with many criticizing security staff for being overzealous --or mocking the situation.
"I'm just imagining what it would be like if he tried to hijack an airplane with that small gun. People squinting looking at his hand," a user named Groonz wrote.
A user named duseinsha wrote, "Pathetic. What happened to common sense?"

Charlotte, North Carolina (PRWEB) February 09, 2014
Often homeowners are focused on finding tips pertaining to the installation of a home security or alarm system, but security systems need to be removed in some instances as well. A few common reasons a homeowner may need to remove a system would be if theyre planning a move, or if they want to upgrade or replace an existing system.
Its certainly possible to remove a system, or components of a system, without causing damage to the wiring or the walls. Hardwired systems are definitely harder to remove than wireless security systems, however, which is why theyre becoming the most popular type of system.
The team at SecuritySystemReviews.com, a site that provides reviews of top security companies and equipment, including updated wireless security system reviews, has put together a few tips to ease the removal of a system.
1.Before doing any removal, contact the alarm monitoring company, and alert them that the system will be removed. The reason for this is because when a wire is disconnected or cut, or power is cut off to a security system, the alarm company will automatically dispatch the authorities.
2.Avoid tripping the siren. Most alarm systems have sirens that are located on a separate current from the rest of the system, so its usually necessary to disconnect the power that runs to the main portion of the security system, as well as the siren power supply.
3.Remove the control panel of the system lastthis is where all the other wiring for the system is located. Its easiest to install another panel in the same location, but if for some reason a homeowner isnt planning to install a new security system, the wiring thats behind the panel should be capped off.
4.If the battery pack of the system, which is located behind the systems control cabinet, is still in good condition, it can be reused for a security system replacement or upgrade. If a control cabinet isnt being reinstalled, or is being put in a new location, as with the control panel wiring, cap these wires as well.
5.For adhesive components, like door and window sensors, it may be necessary to use rubbing alcohol to fully remove them.
6.If a homeowner is planning to install or upgrade the security system, its probably best to leave all of the existing wiring in-place, rather than removing it. The reasons for this is because unless wiring is badly damaged, it can probably be used for the installation of a new security system, unless of course a homeowner is installing a wireless system. Even for the installation of wireless security systems, it may be best to wait until a professional installation company has visited, to determine whether or not the wiring should be removed.

Latest smart home tech -
February 9, 2014 by
Mr HomeBuilder
Another year, another step closer to the promise of a smart home that can anticipate our needs and respond to our commands. Here are some of the best new smart home technologies on the market this year.
Skydrop Sprinkler Controller
A lush, green lawn is the result of steady and even watering all summer long. But sometimes the weather doesnt co-operate, which can throw off your watering schedule and leave you with a parched or over-watered grass. The Skydrop Sprinkler Controller is a wifi enabled watering system that takes the day-to-day fluctuations in the weather into account. By pulling down local weather data from the companys cloud service, the Skydrop can figure out how much moisture was lost below the surface by factoring in precipitation, temperature and sunshine. The device then builds an automated watering schedule that allows your lawn to get the perfect amount of water.
Petnet
Caring for a pet can be a real joy, but if you have a busy schedule, you know it can also be a bit of a pain. The Petnet is an automated pet feeder that you can control from your smartphone, allowing you to deliver dinner to your dog or cat even when you have to work late. If youre going to be away for a few days, you can also set up an automated feeding schedule, sparing you the expense of hiring someone to look after your pet. And if your pet has put on a few pounds in the last few years, the Petnet can give you feeding insights based on your pets breed and age that allow you to track caloric intake so you can adjust your animals feeding regimen.
Canary
A home security system is a great way to keep your home and family safe, but the installation and high cost of monthly fees are real drawbacks for many people. Canary looks to simplify the home security system with a device that requires no installation and no fees. Simply place the sensor in your home, connect it to your home wifi network and youll be able to start tracking home security on your phone. The devices built-in camera, night vision and motion sensor can alert you if there is an intruder. For an added layer of protection, Canary also packs in environmental sensors which can track things like indoor air quality and humidity.
Sense Mother
Smart home technology is cool, but it can also feel a little cold. Senses Mother is a smart home device that looks to bring a little warmth to the smart home industry. Featuring a suite of sensors, Senses Mother is your homes base station, and the Motion Cookies are small wearable sensors that can track your activity and behaviors. You can train the devices to monitor a wide range of personal and household tasks like checking to see if you watered the plants, making sure you took your medication, monitoring if youve left the fridge door open, and reminding you if you havent had enough water today.
