What are the benefits of having a home security system?
- Peace-of-Mind!
- Lower insurance premiums!
- Safety for your Family, Your home&Your possessions from burglaries and fire!
With a home security system from Stephens Electronics, Inc., You will never have to worry again about the safety of your home or family!
Statistics prove that a properly installed security system can reduce the chance of your home being burglarized by at least ten times the national average.
The most important way to accomplish this is by the use of window decals&yard signs, letting the burglars know that your home is protected.
At Stephens, we take this very seriously, we will not sell or install decals or signs on ANY home that does not have a system installed.
We are proud of the fact that the burglars in our area know our name&that if it says "Stephens" on the outside, there is definitely a security system on the inside!
Our signs are painted with the same reflective paint used for street signs, making it easier to locate at night. They even have a space at the bottom for 3" reflective address numbers to help the police&fire department find your home.
In addition to a security system, each home should also have smoke detectors installed. While a fire alarm system can not prevent a fire in the way a security system can prevent a burglary, Insurance companies offer their greatest discounts for a fire alarm system. They know that the loss from a fire can be much greater than a typical burglary and are more than happy to reward you for protecting yours&their interests accordingly. Of course the best discounts are from a combined fire&security system. Most insurance companies offer up to a 20% premium discount for this type system.
