"In the past we’ve avoided getting into agreements or contracts with our home security providers but felt comfortable and confident doing so with Safe Streets. Their monitoring and surveillance centers are nationwide and open 24 hours. They made the process really easy and informed us of all the benefits by being under monitoring agreement. Told both of our neighbors about our experience and they plan to sign up too."

"Felt kind of bad for the installer on the day he came to set up our alarm package. He was clearly brand new, and struggled a bit to get everything working correctly. However, he called his manager a few times to help with troubleshooting and in the end all got done. Took longer than it should have, but the gentleman was extremely nice and apologetic. They threw in a couple of extra motion sensors for the basement to make up for the long visit. Extremely nice touch and customer service. Still giving 5 stars."

"I called the owner and asked him if he could fix an i existing smoke detector and install a new one. He said that the price would be around $150 2 employess did the work in about 20 minutes. I was charged $243. I called the owner again and asked if he could come back and fix the smoke detector that was supposedly fixed before. The employee came again to the house and decided that I need a new smoke detector. He installed it in about 10 minutes. The owner advised me that again it will cost me $243. I was able to get him to reduce it to $216. So both jobs that took less than hour to complete I was charged over $400."

FAQs for alarm or security system installation projects in Albany, NY

If you terminate your security system before your contract ends, you’ll likely have to pay a cancellation fee—often a percentage of the remaining contract balance. To avoid these fees, consider choosing a brand that offers contract-free plans, like SimpliSafe or Vivint. You can also negotiate with your provider to see if they provide pro-rated cancellation fees or special exceptions.

Paying for a security system is a valuable investment because it enhances your home’s safety and deters criminal activity. With millions of property crimes each year, having robust security measures helps protect your property and might even lower your insurance premiums. It's a worthwhile investment for lasting peace of mind.

The average cost to install security cameras ranges from $125 to $3,500, depending on the amount, type, and placement. To install a complete setup of four cameras, homeowners can expect to invest an average of $1,300 for labor and equipment. Installing multiple cameras gives you comprehensive coverage of vulnerable entry points and enhances overall property security.
