And if they see evidence of any kind of security system in place, they very well may choose another target. In today’s parenting environment, security cameras have taken on a new role. This is especially true since so many wireless security cameras provide you with live feeds that you can access from any computer, smartphone, or tablet you have at your disposal. Instead of just keeping an eye out for criminal activity, a good security camera system will allow you to keep an eye on the homestead and, perhaps more importantly, on its occupants while you're away. If you work a 9 to 5, for example, but your kids get home from school at around 3, you'll be able to check in to make sure they got home safe, and to give them a ring on their cell phone if you don't see them home by a certain time. Choosing the right wireless security camera system for your home may hinge on one particular feature that you don't think you could live without.

It is OK to take an “Us against Them” attitude when it comes to home security and your personal safety because home security really does matter. Examine your front and back door locks and make sure they are properly working. The doors are a burglar’s most common means of entry. Know that a steel or solid core door, not a hollow core door, is more resistant to forced entry. Replace a push button knob lock with a deadbolt lock to add more resistance. Many homes have double hung windows which can be “pinned” by installing a pin in the lower window sash.

August's basic cloud video storage is free, but there's also a paid plan that costs around $5 a month, which is competitive with similar offerings from other video doorbells. As with similar products, it records video when it detects motion, but it also saves 30 seconds of footage from before the sensor was triggered to give you more context into what happened, provided you pay for a cloud storage plan. To install the August Doorbell Cam Pro, you need a mechanical doorbell chime since it doesn't work with digital chimes. Unlike SkyBell and Ring, it doesn't have an adapter or add on for digital chime functionality. As with most video doorbells, this one has a built in battery, but it can't run off the battery for very long, less than a day in our experience. August covers this product with a one year warranty.
