Free Security System Brainerd Nisswa Crosslake Park Rapids

You know the saying “If It Sounds To Good To Be True, It Probably Is” or “Nothing in Life Is For Free”? Well they are both  true, and there is no such thing as a free security system either. No one is going to give you a Free Security System like the advertisments lead you to believe.

I am looking through my mail today and on the back page of an advertising package full of coupons and advertising is an offer from one of the national security companies for a FREE Home Security System! NO COST to you for parts and activation with ONLY a $99..00 Customer  Installation Charge  and the purchase of alarm monitoring services subject to terms and conditions below.

Here is what you get from the National Security Companies or Mass Market Merchandisers- Front and Back Doors, Infared Motion sensor, Digital Keypad, Siren, Lawn Sign and Decals. In the fine print it states that you agree to a 36 month monitoring agreement at $35.99 per month by credit card or electronically from your savings or checking account. You will pay $1,295.00 plus the $99.00 installation charge for a total of $1,394.00. You own the system? Remember, you agreed to purchase monitoring services and pay an installation charge, you are not purchasing a security system? Who has only  two doors in thier house? Where are theses guys from and what happens when we need some service? Are they reputable companies, what kind of work do they do, what is the warranty, are they licensed, do they have insurance?  These are all great questions. We do not reccomend anyone buy a system from a national or mass merchandising security company. The risk is to high to gamble when you are dealing with the security of your family, home or business.

Scrap metal is a hot commodity these days. With commodities markets drawing investment from those who still lack confidence in Wall Street, metal prices are soaring, which means incidents of metal theft are, too.

The Department of Energy estimated in 2009 that theft of copper wire – from power lines or abandoned homes and businesses – costs the public $1 billion annually, and in Britain, thieves are even swiping sections of railroad track so they can pocket the profits. About 30 states have made efforts to stiffen their penalties against the practice in the past several years.

Midwest Security & Fire provides quality surveillance camera systems available that can help deter and capture theft at your home or business. We offer a variety of surveillance systems to fit your needs and budget. Our surveillance systems capture quality video and may be viewed on the premise or remotely over the internet using your computer or smartphone. Give us a call today for a demonstration and security review. We will prepare a detailed no obligation proposal for indoor or outdoor cameras, IP cameras, digital recorders (DVR), megapixel cameras, or high definition cameras for your home or business.

Home Security Brochure from the Brainerd Police Department

This has been a very busy year  at Midwest Security & Fire. Our company has been working on many residential and commercial security, fire, surveillance, and access control installations. We have been very fortunate that we have great residential and commercial customers and are blessed to live in such a great area of Minnesota.

This week we installed a new access control system at the Brainerd Police Department. Thier system is designed to monitor and control access to doors and areas of the building. The existing system was from a national company that had installed equipment that only they could work on, and had become obsolete in just the few years it had been installed. The repairs and maintenence to the system were to costly for them to continue. Midwest Security & Fire was able to replace the access system with a high quality and cost effective system  by one of the Worlds most popular access control manufactures. The Brainerd Police Department can now have local, prompt, and cost effective security service. Thats the way it should be!

While there at the installation, I found the brouchure in the picture on a rack in the lobby. Its is a great resource and has many good security tips. I thought the photo and caption in the brochure “Unmonitored alarms are of little use” speaks to what we have said for years. Law enforcment agencies and insurance companies have been saying for years that one of the best ways to protect your home or business is with a monitored security system.
