Do You Need Home Security For Your Apartment Or Rental?

Apartment Security System Options

Fortunately, there are plenty of security systems which work just as well for renters as they do for homeowners.

Monitored Apartment Security Systems

Being a renter doesn’t prevent you from getting professional monitoring services. Cellular and broadband technologies allow wireless equipment monitoring with many of the same bells and whistles as a traditional home monitoring system. If you choose this type of system from one of the home security companies which provide such services, they will notify emergency services for you in the event of a break-in.

When it comes to monitored security, you can choose from professionally installed systems like ADT Pulse, or self-install options such as SimpliSafe. Companies that offer DIY installation often provide a guided process in order to make sure you’re comfortable with the installation of your equipment. After all, the purpose is defeated if your apartment security system doesn’t work properly!

Self-Monitored Apartment Security Systems

If you choose to monitor your own security system, you can still get all of the high-tech equipment you’d expect from a professional setup. The difference is that if your alarm goes off, you’ll be responsible for deciding whether or not to call the police and then making the call yourself if necessary.

If you choose a self-monitored apartment security system, having a live streaming camera set up inside your home can help you determine very quickly that you need to call the authorities – or that your roommate came home and forgot to disarm the system.
