Find Peace of Mind in San Juan 

Imagine this: you're heading out for a weekend getaway with your family, but a lingering worry nags at you. What if someone tries to trespass on your property while you're away? And what about your pets? Will they be safe at home alone? These concerns are common, but with a home surveillance system, you can put your mind at ease.

In your San Juan, Guaynabo, or Dorado home, the rising crime rates have become a concern for many homeowners. However, modern home surveillance systems offer a sense of security like never before. With the ability to access live footage from your mobile device at any time and receive real-time alerts for suspicious activities, these systems are more reliable than ever.

Let's explore some tips to ensure you get the best results from your home security setup while delving into scenarios where these tips prove invaluable.

1. Boost Outdoor Lighting

Imagine it's nighttime, and an intruder attempts to approach your property under the cover of darkness. Suddenly, motion-activated outdoor lights snap on, exposing the intruder and activating surveillance cameras. Cameras capture the trespasser’s actions in full color, providing you with valuable evidence for the authorities. Night-vision cameras typically only record in black and white, so outdoor lighting is essential to achieve better footage. 

2. Eliminate Blind Spots

If you only have a camera at the door, you could be leaving the rest of your property vulnerable. By strategically positioning cameras to cover all vulnerable areas, including back windows, rear doors, and basement windows, intruders won’t be able to sneak past your system, leaving no room for escape.

3. Conceal Cables Securely 

Visible wires can be an open invitation to criminals, making your camera system vulnerable to tampering or damage. To prevent this, cables should be mounted discreetly within a conduit. This extra layer of protection ensures the safety of your devices and, ultimately, your family.

4. Sufficient Storage Capacity 

If any incident occurs at your home, you’ll want to make sure it’s caught on camera. You won’t enjoy the crushing disappointment of realizing the video was overridden or that there wasn’t enough storage space. A cloud-based system will provide all the video storage you need, which you can access and share right from your smartphone or computer. 

5. Seek a Professional Installation 

As you set out to install your home surveillance system, it’s safest to trust the professionals. Hiring experts will not only simplify the process, but we’ll also integrate your cameras, lighting, sensors, and smart devices into one cohesive and user-friendly system.
