Dallas, TX (PRWEB) January 21, 2014
In late 2013, the FBI released the nation's annual crime statistics which included a sobering 1.4 million burglaries. In an effort to fight back, industry leaders of their field such as ADT, Door Devil and HOA-Express showcase innovative solutions in this year's Hottest Home Security Trends that illustrate how homeowners plan to stay one step ahead of criminals in 2014.
"Anti-Kick" Door Security Kits
Most homeowners would be horrified to realize less than one inch of soft wood is all that holds their deadbolt in place. Unfortunately, criminals are aware of this vulnerability. A single forceful kick easily destroys a standard doorframe and allows criminals into the home in seconds. That is why kicking the door continues to be the preferred method of entry for burglars.
In recent years, door security solutions were either too complex to install for the average DIY homeowner or were gimmicks that would never stop a 200 lb. man from kicking-in a door. However, a new generation of anti-kick doorframe reinforcement products - such as Door Devil - is earning street cred with Police and Crime Prevention professionals because of the documented accounts of thwarted burglaries. This type of solution simply affixes to the existing doorframe and can be installed in approximately 30 minutes.
While alarms are excellent burglar deterrents, they don't stop kicks. With simple and effective door security options now available to homeowners, the addition of "anti-kick" reinforcement is expected to be one of the hottest home security trends in 2014.
Home Security Automation
Without question, Home Security (Alarm) Systems are one of the most effective burglar deterrents a homeowner can implement. In 2014, the traditional alarm system is getting a facelift and early indications show the sexier version to be a big hit with homeowners.
ADT's Pulse, for instance, allows the homeowner to remotely lock doors, arm/disarm the alarm, check security cameras and adjust the thermostat. Consumers can expect fewer home security commercials with the familiar bad guy kicking the door while mom and kids huddle helplessly in the den. Instead, one is more likely to see Soccer Dad checking the "driveway cam" and turning on the porch light using his iPhone.
With technological advances in security software and the proliferation of the smart hand-held device, it is no surprise that leaders in the $3 Billion Home Security Industry have targeted Home Automation as a key area of growth. By 2019, according to Transparency Market Research, the Home Automation market is expected to grow to an estimated $16.4 Billion.

San Antonio, Texas (PRWEB) January 19, 2014
During a big move to a new home, whether its across town or across the country, it can seem nearly impossible to remember all of the details. One such detail that may be forgotten is the fact that a security system can be moved to a new home, with a fairly minimal amount of effort. This can be very helpful if a homeowner is moving to a location where a security system isnt present, or if they already have one of the best home security systems, and dont want to downgrade to the existing system in their new home.
The team at SecuritySystemReviews.com, a site that serves as a security system comparison resource, has created a list of tips to help homeowners planning to move a security system.
1.This may be easier said than done, since it could be too late, but its always a good idea to save the original packaging for a home security system. This is particularly helpful during a move, because it can help homeowners determine whether or not they have all of the sensors and individual components of the system.
2.Its important to let the alarm company know a move will be occurring. For example homeowners with an ADT security system should call the company, alert them theyll be moving, give them their new address and contact information, and set up monitoring services at the new location. For an unmonitored system, this isnt necessary, of course. Its also helpful to contact the security company because they can answer questions, guide the process, and many top alarm companies also have moving packets, which have handy essentials to make the move easier.
3.Turn off the systems back-up battery during a move. Many homeowners turn off the initial power supply, but forget the backup battery, so it switches on and the power is drained during the move. The backup battery is important in case of a power outage.
4.Once arriving at a new home, the home alarm system reinstallation should take priority. Many thieves will target a home where they see moving boxes waiting for trash pickup, so its best to not have even one night in a new home without the alarm system installed.
Its unfortunate that many homeowners neglect to take their security system with them during a move. It can save a lot of money, and its not a difficult procedure, and it can have big future benefits.
