Sometimes I get sad when I have to think how we’ve got to make our homes more and more like prisons so that people cannot break into our property to steal our stuff or harm us. We’ve had to, at great expense, put up electric fencing, higher walls, higher gates and alarm system ever since moving in. There’s also the ongoing cost of having an armed response security company keeping watch for you via the alarm system.
I can gladly say (touch wood) that we have not had a problem at our home, and I’d like to keep it that way. I always believe if you make your place a bit more difficult to break into than the person next door, they’ll rather target that person. Sad that we’ve got to think like that, but that’s the way it is.
We make use of Seagate Security Services at our home, and I’m extremely impressed with their response. A couple of times that our alarm has gone off, they always phone within seconds of it going off, and most of the time after the call has been completed and you look down the street you see the vehicle already on it’s way just in case there is a problem. Awesome service I think. It makes us feel a little bit more at ease knowing we have someone looking over us.
This morning we woke up with the alarm going off. Now if you’ve ever woken up like that, you know it’s a horrible feeling. It took my eyes a few seconds to adjust to read on the panel to see which zone was activated. I ran downstairs to check it out, and as I opened our bedroom door I already heard my cellphone ringing. On the way to it I checked that everything was in order, and picked it up and it was a lady from Seagate asking if everything was fine. I couldn’t believe it, it must’ve been about 3-5 seconds from the alarm being activated to the phone ringing. Luckily everything was fine, and it seemed a moth or something caused the motion sensor to activate.
So if you’re in Port Elizabeth and need a company you can depend on in the time you’ll need them most I will definitely recommend Seagate. Their number is 041 487 3425.
