Protecting Your Home While on Vacation

When protecting your home while on vacation, hiring a professional security company can provide extra protection and peace of mind. Here are some of the best ways a professional security company can help safeguard your home:

 

  • 24/7 Monitoring: Opt for a security company that offers round-the-clock monitoring services. This means that if an alarm is triggered, the security company will be notified immediately and can respond accordingly. They can dispatch security personnel or contact emergency services if required.
  • Video Surveillance: Install video surveillance cameras both inside and outside your home. Professional security companies, like Genesis Security and Investigative Group, can set up high-quality cameras with features like motion detection, night vision, and remote access. This allows you to monitor your home in real-time through a smartphone app or computer, no matter where you are.
  • UnManned Guarding Services: Consider adding an unmanned guarding service to your current security camera system. This system can talk to intruders and call the police when needed.
  • Security Patrols: Some security companies provide regular patrols in the neighborhood or near your property while you’re away. These patrols are a visible deterrent and can promptly respond to suspicious activity. Consider Genesis Security and Investigative Group for your patrol services.
  • Vacation Watch Services: Inform a security company about your vacation dates and request their vacation watch services. This may include regular checks on your property, ensuring doors and windows are secure, picking up mail or packages, and even creating the illusion of an occupied home by adjusting lights and curtains. Genesis Security and Investigative Group can assist you with these services.

  • Emergency Response: In emergencies like fires or medical incidents, professional security companies can coordinate with emergency services and provide timely assistance. They can also maintain a list of emergency contacts provided by you, such as trusted neighbors or family members. Genesis Security and Investigative group can be the point of contact for emergencies. 
  • Maintenance and Support: A reliable security company will offer maintenance and support services for your security camera system. They can conduct regular inspections, perform necessary updates, and promptly address technical issues.
  • Neighborhood Awareness Programs: At Genesis Security and Investigative Group, we can organize neighborhood awareness programs to educate residents about security measures, crime prevention, and how to report suspicious activities. These programs foster community and encourage neighbors to look out for one another.
  • Reputation and Background: Choose a creditable security company that you can trust. Many security companies are chosen for their low rates.
  • Remember, you get what you pay for. Genesis Security and Investigative Group only use credible security professionals and retired law enforcement.
