Security Camera Installation in the Midwest: Stay Connected and Safe

What if you could be certain that your child made it home safe from school? Or that intruders weren't lurking on your property?

With next-gen live-streaming home security cameras, Midwest residents can do all this and more. At Alert Protective, your safety is our specialty. As Midwest natives ourselves, we’ve seen the impacts of crime on our city first hand. So we’ve made it our business to help keep families safe throughout the city and the greater Midwest area.Our video surveillance systems provide property owners with a way to keep a watchful eye on their home from anywhere in the world that has internet access. It’s never been easier to calm a worried mind. Thanks to simple smartphone integrations, you can see inside your home in real time with the device that’s already in your pocket.

Once we’ve installed security cameras in your Midwest home, you’ll be amazed with how much they can do. At the first sign of movement, they can send a notification straight to your phone. They can also store high definition video of the event in the cloud. So if you aren’t able to check your notifications in the moment, a recording will be waiting for you whenever you choose to view it.

Outfitting your home with a security camera system is the best way to protect your family and your belongings. A study of more than 400 convicted burglars showed that cameras were the number one deterrent for criminals. Other studies have demonstrated that video security has the ability to drop crime rates by roughly 50%. And simply knowing that your home is safe while your away offers a peace of mind that little else can provide.

If security is a top priority, consider pairing a surveillance solution with an alarm and our protective monitoring service. Doing so will grant you all of the protection of the camera system plus a team of professionals who are on call 24/7 to take action at the first sign of trouble. They can have the police department to your home in minutes if necessary and will always be there to answer any questions you may have.

Don’t let another day pass with an unprotected home. Give us a call today to learn more about security cameras in the Midwest or to schedule an appointment to give your home the protection it deserves.

I have a security system that was installed by another company. Will Alert Protective Services monitor and service it?: Yes. Unlike our competitors, Alert Protective Services is more than happy to monitor and service security systems installed by other security providers. Our highly skilled security technicians are able to service and program nearly any make or model of alarm system.

Where are your security systems monitored from?: Our UL-approved, central station monitoring facilities are located right here in the Chicagoland area. We also have two backup central stations that would be used in the event of a natural disaster or during extreme weather conditions.
What size system do I need?: We don’t have a “one size fits all” approach; every Alert Protective Services system is tailored for your unique needs. What’s more, we don’t over-design our systems: we take pride in recommending exactly what you need for optimum protection without unnecessary frills.
Do I rent my system, or do I own it?: Ownership is the way to go. Leasing a system tends to be more expensive in the long run. It saddles you to a long-term contract that may not be an ideal solution. If your needs change, or if the system installed isn’t performing well, you may be stuck.

What kind of warranty do you offer?: Alert Protective provides a comprehensive one-year warranty on all parts and labor. This is four times as long as the 90-day warranties offered by most other security firms.
