When you think about home security systems, what comes to mind? You might think of home security systems, safes, or locks such as deadbolts. However, a less expensive option is the home security sign. A Home Security Sign You might have seen home security signs before, such as the popular, "Beware of Dog." People with this home security sign posted might have a large dog, or just a small dog.
Maybe they don't have one at all. Usually, though, an intruder won't know that and may simply decide to stay away. Another popular home security sign says, "No Trespassing" or something like, "Private Property." This might be useful for those living near public places or tourist attractions.
It may also be that those using those signs like the terse wording. However, they're not useful for keeping intruders out, only to let law-abiding citizens know they're on private property and should get off. Home security signs are not necessarily standalone, though. They might actually signify that a home security system is installed, such as a "This Home is Protected by " Security" sticker placed in your window. There are also funny home security signs available, if you're so inclined. These are easily found in catalogs.
Examples might be a sign saying, "Beware of ferocious cat {rather than "dog")." These are obviously meant for humor, not to protect your home. Many different stores sell home security signs, such as department stores or home improvement stores.
Prices will vary depending on what your sign says and how fancy it is. Of course, home security signs are not nearly as effective in keeping intruders at bay as a true home security system is. For your best protection, purchase a system along with your sign.
