Atlanta Moms: Your Family’s Safety — One Less Thing To Worry About

Atlanta Moms Edition, , , ,
Saturn Security - Atlanta
As a mom, you have enough to worry about. With soccer practices, science fair projects and getting dinner on the table, the last thing you’re probably thinking about is your home’s security.

But after helping the kids do their homework, you might want to do some of your own. After all, a security system can help protect the life you’ve worked so hard to build — and all for less than you might expect.

Here are just a few things you should know, courtesy of the Saturn Security team:

Wired systems provide a greater challenge for thieves.
Many home security companies will try to sell you on a wireless security system. That’s because it’s easier for their salesmen to install. A wired system, however, is harder for intruders to thwart. So make sure you’re getting a wired system installed by trained experts, not salespeople.

Multiple monitoring centers deliver increased reliability.
It’s best to select a company with more than one monitoring center. That way, in the event of an outage at one location, your home’s system can be monitored by another center with no interruption in service.

A security system can save you up to 20% on your homeowner’s insurance.
Regardless of the company you choose, having a security system installed in your home can lead to a reduction in your monthly insurance premiums.

A Special Offer For AtlantaMoms.com Visitors:

$14.95/mo. for 12 months

Saturn Security is a locally-owned and operated company that offers the same protection and equipment as the big guys — with better customer service. That’s because we’re always there when you need us, either on the phone or in your home. Whether you’re thinking about a new security system, or considering a switch in providers, give us a call at 678-432-5280 or visit SaturnSecuritySystems.com.
