How much is a regular house alarm?

Answer 1

There are a few things first you usually have installation and activation. This can be any where from $450 to $99. Then you have equipment that can be pricey. If your looking to protect a home under 3,000 sq ft you should only need a few pieces of equipment. Then there is monitoring per month range anywhere from $50+ to $30.99 per month.

This is the best deal I have found ONLY $99 installed for complete system and lifetime warranty. ADT authorized dealer 1-888-369-0260

Answer 2

Installing a home alarm system is very much like buying any other product or service. There is a wide range of prices and options. Monitored systems, require a telephone or internet connection and there is a monthly monitoring fee of anywhere from $25 to $79 a month. The installation of this type of system is somewhat complicated and time consuming, so standard cost may be anywhere from $799 and up for the actual install. Alarm dealers are often less interested in the "installation fee" than they are in getting the monthly monitoring agreement, so watch for special deals advertising "free install" with a 2 or 3 year contract for monitoring. There are a number of good systems that you can install yourself and will call who you designate instead of an operator. For these type of systems, you can spend anywhere from $50 on up, but the advantage is that you don't have a monthly monitoring fee. You're not adding another monthly bill to pay. Either option can be very effective if installed properly, but buying and installing it yourself will save you a substantial amount of money in the beginning and over the course of time. When a criminal does break into your home and the alarm goes off, they don't know who that alarm is contacting, you, a service center, or the police directly, so effectively there is no difference in a DIY installed alarm or a professionally installed system. Both systems will immediately tell the criminal that the house is protected and police are on the way.
