9 Must Have Security Gadgets For Security Lovers

Humans have the propensity of ignoring certain things until they are hit hard on the face by the consequences of their inaction. Take your personal security for instance. You can do what it takes to protect yourself while out there. You will carry a pepper spray or even a gun if visiting a not-so-safe neighborhood. But would you really put the same effort to protect your home? There are high chances you wouldn’t. After all, you have a security dog and a CCTV camera. They should be enough, or so you think. But frankly speaking, they are not enough. Burglars are smart these days. They use advanced techniques to compromise security systems. Sometimes they steal without leaving a trace. It is therefore wise to invest in hi tech security gadgets that will always keep your home safe 24/7. Such gadgets include:

Movement detecting security lights

There is a wide range of these lights in most home improvement stores. They work differently, so be sure to pick one that best fits your needs. The best ones are deigned to send out dazzling glares anytime they are activated by a passive infrared sensor. Some are advanced and can go a long way to help you find your way through shady doorways. Like said, they work differently so be sure to take your time when buying one.

Burton Torino NMK/4 Safe

Most homeowners hardly think of safes as security features but they are. They can be just as useful at home as they are in commercial settings. These safes do not succumb to pressure or heat. No amount of smashing, drilling or hammering can get a burglar inside the safes. The best thing about them is the fact that they can be fixed in concrete walls, making them immovable. All you need to do is bolt them down. These features explain why insurance underwriters are always willing to underwrite the contents inside these safes up to $3000.

Dummy cameras

First off, they are way cheaper than the real CCTV cameras. They do not need any kind of maintenance. They are perfect deterrents to troublemakers. The best ones in the market are made from real CCTV camera housing. They come complete with genuine camera lenses and even bodies. One cannot tell if he is staring at a CCTV camera or its decoy. Get one.

Barking dog alarms

As far as achieving the Rottweiler effect is concerned, these alarms are the best. They bark, but they do not bite yet they scare away. One only needs to trigger the system. It then gives out a loud sound of a vicious and fierce dog that can easily send intruders scarpering. The alarms come with 360 degree radar detectors. They are therefore effective through concrete walls.

Siren padlocks

They look like ordinary padlocks only that they come with inbuilt alarm systems. They can be used to secure just about anything, from crates, cupboards, rooms, bikes etc. The alarm gets activated an intruder touches the lock. In other words, the alarm system is sensitive to motion. It goes on and gives the intruder a scare. They are cheap and effective. $20 is more than enough to get you a good siren padlock.

Fake TV lights

They are genius to say the least. The lights can be seen from a distance and usually mimic colored glows and flashes of a TV set. An intruder can therefore imagine someone’s feet up watching the TV. You can set the lights to go on every day at a given time. So troublemakers will always see ‘you’ watching the TV at home while you are continents away enjoying your vacation.

Pressure door mats

They look like ordinary mats but they are not. They send wireless signals anytime one steps on them. They work in different ways, so you have to choose what works for you. You can choose the signal to turn on the alarm system, notify you via your phone, activate the indoor monitoring system which turns on the CCTV camera or the automatic locks which can lock all doors. One only needs to step on the mat. They are ideal or homeowners who usually leave their doors unlocked and want to know when they have an intruder. In a nutshell, it is all about the extra alert whenever someone enters your property.

Wi-Fi cameras with night vision

They look like radios. Some are in fact radios with the camera. You simply use the camera to keep a secret eye on what’s happening within and about your property. They work well in both commercial and residential settings.

Nanny cameras

Doesn’t sound like a security gadget but it is. It allows you to monitor what your nanny is doing all day long at home. You only need to find a nice place to hide it. It will then send you real time images and clips on what’s happening at home.
