Door Alarm

While most people would think that entering through a window would be a burglar's first choice, it is estimated that more than one third of all residential break-ins occur through the front door. That percentage combined with the number of back door break-ins (about one fifth) equate to more than half of all residential break-ins occurring through a door. With that in mind, if you're either considering or in the process of installing a security system in your home, don't even consider a system that has only window sensors. Make sure that you're receiving full protection by having a security system that has door alarm capabilities as well.
