. This stage of life and the horrendous increase in pillhead crime has caused us to realize we need more.

That type of protection has been our primary for many years, plus I had the added knowledge that I could outrun my sons if I was scared enough
We are prepared for this to come with a high price, but I want it done right. It is a large, sprawling, 3-level house and I have counted 22 entries attainable without a ladderpraise_yeshua said:
so this isn't going to be cheap. Motion sensors are on my list since we have no pets.

aleshanee said:i know most of this would not even be relevant or feasible for a residential home owner in a stand alone house.......... but here is some of the features of how our building .. a luxury high rise...security system works......
just to enter our building a potential visitor has to ring up from a panel outside the front doors...... the area is surrounded by cameras and when they ring your apartment their image pops up on the screen of whatever registered device you are using at the moment... (tv..computer... cell phone etc)...... and it;s only cameras and a two way speaker out there... no screens......so you can see and talk to them but they can;t see you... in fact you can even change the view from different cameras or zoom in to see them from all angles and distances to see who is with them or verify they are alone......
the cameras also have recognition software and if they are already in the system can tell you who that person is even if you might not know or rmember them....
if you decide to let them in you type in the number of people in the party and then press ok.... the door will buzz open and they will proceed into a foyer to another electronically operated door.....you have to buzz that one open for them too at which point they are officially identified as an accepted house guest....and they will be told by electronic voice which elevator to use......that elevator will automatically open for them and take them directly to your floor..... it won;t stop anywhere else and they won;t be able to control it....... and you can watch them the entire time from the moment they appear on the property outside the building ...in the hallways ..in the elevator and all the way up to your door........ the recognition software will switch cameras as necessary and track every movement they make in your building once you have pushed the buttons to accept and identify them as a guest....
also....if someone tries to sneak in with your guest when the door is buzzed open recognition software sees that too and alerts security....... (who has an office right there in the downstairs lobby)...and the intruder will be arrested on the spot...... and if anyone in the accepted party of guests separates and goes his own way away from the others... security is alerted to that too and they go after them...... all the cameras have microphones and security can monitor all conversations in all common thoroughfares and common spaces of the building........ so in a way it;s a full fledged electronic big brother and guardian...... the only thing they can;t see into or listen to is the inside of your own apartment.......
on top of all that our apartment has it;s own independent security system .....not attached to or monitored by building security...... but hooked up to an outside security service... it has it;s own operating system that is pre set and pretty complicated...i don;t ever bother with it except to verify who i am when i come in the front door...... .... our apartment was originally built as a mid level safe house....... but it;s not used that way anymore....
very secure.... but also very expensive...... thankfully i;m not the one who pays for it....
