I was looking into this a few years back. Seems like most major alarm companies charged around ~1000 for the gear, the install, and a year (or some sort of multi-year contract) of monitoring which required a landline. I ended up installing my own system (which was a lot more modern than what they were offering and way cheaper). Wasn't too hard to set up.

I used to keep a 9 iron next to my bed, but my new halls to narrow to get a decent swing, now I keep a hammer. My friend woke up a few months back to a bloke walking out his front door with his laptop. He proceeded to beat the shite out of the guy with fisticuffs, the robber returned the favour by stabbing him with a used needle. Use something weighty!

Anyone remember that story from last year,
maybe leaving some pics of dolph will save you the troubles

The masked raiders tied up the star's wife and terrorised her into handing over cash and jewellery by threatening her with knives.But they cut short their raid on the house near Marbella, Spain, after spotting a family photo of the action star and his children in one of the bedrooms.
Luckily for the gang, Lundgren - most famous for playing Russian boxer Ivan Drago in Rocky IV - was out.The 6ft 5in karate black belt, once bodyguard to singer Grace Jones, had to save his strength for consoling wife Anette when she phoned him in tears to tell him what had happened.
Police are still hunting the three attackers.
An insider said: 'Things might have turned out very differently if Dolph had been in.
'The criminals fled as soon as they realised the owner of the house they had raided was someone they wouldn't want to come up against in a fight.

I hooked up my home alarm myself with the help of a friend. Its great, 16 zones, wireless key fobs for arming/disarming and a gsm mobile sms system that sends me sms's with which zones have been triggered if the alarm goes off. (no wires to cut).
Put in a bunch of other stuff too, not that hard.

I swear to god a door to door salesman from Honeywell Security just knocked on my door. I hate door to door salesmen and I should get one of those ugly NO SOLICITING signs. I also hate when they ask if I'm the "home owner" since I still look like some punk kid that can't afford a nice house. He tried to offer free installation if I just put a small "Protected by Honeywell" sign in your front garden. I told him no and that's when he went for the hard sell "This is a nice neighborhood but there has been some problems"..
I should have told him about my dog, golf club, stun gun and 50c sniper riffle I use to protect my home.

I was considering Broadview just because I see the damn commercials all the time. I've been brainwashed.

Just stick a sign in your yard and some stickers on your windows. No one will fuck with you. Unless they figure out cutting your phone lines disables most alarms... whoops...
