Whynacht Security & Survival

Buyer Beware:

The traditional residential security system industry is plagued with smooth operators who feed on public insecurity and make their living from volume sales of either “packaged” security systems or a very basic and generic, off the shelf approach to filling a client’s “need”. Worse, many of these “firms” are actually hobbyists who have a different full time job and treat your security as a part time money maker.

Package deals assume that electronic security systems are always the answer, one size fits all, and every client has the same problem that will instantly go away if you buy into their product. Adherents of the generic approach differ from the package mongers only in that they recognize that all security issues are not created equal. Unfortunately, their “design” approach is based on the assumption that any threat, real or imagined, can be addressed by throwing enough technology at it. What both groups are selling is a false sense of security that as often as not leads to the slippery slope of false alarms with the end result being that the cure was worse than the disease. After that, clients have been known to shy away from any electronic security system believing that if a huge, internationally known company couldn’t help them then who could? We think the answer to that last question is obvious. Give us a call.
