I have Atlantic Security and Fire, http://www.atlanticsecuritynj.com/
It is a monitored system. Alarm goes off, they call within about 30 seconds. If I don't give them the right code or answer the phone fast enough, police dispatched. The one time I didn't get to the phone bc of technical difficulties cops were there in about 2 minutes. VERY FAST. You know then as well if there is ever a problem, you can quickly lock yourself in a room and trip the alarm (say open a window if you can't get to the panic button) and then they will come. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, "Hinge" <hinge98@...> wrote: > > What system did you chose? > > --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, "fancypaaantz" <fancypaaantz@> wrote: > > > > Security system was my first improvement when I bought.
