Calgary Break Ins

2014 Crime statistics among communities in Calgary reveal that the downtown core and several eastern areas remain hubs for criminal activity. Calgary police are doing their best to keep neighbourhoods safe. However, installing a security system from Frontline Security is the best way to protect your family and home from break-ins.

Communities that had an abundance of crime saw the least change in their crime rate. The downtown core and the beltline led the way with the most criminal charges in 2014. The following Calgary communities also had high crime rates last year:

• Forest Lawn
• Dover
• Marlborough
• Falconridge
• Sunalta
• Bowness

Unfortunately, we’re hearing of break ins happening throughout Calgary every day. Home security is becoming a standard feature in new homes. Furthermore, video surveillance cameras which monitor the interior and exterior of residential homes are becoming increasingly popular. Criminals tend to pass or think twice about breaking into a home with a security system. Thus, just the presence of a security system is a major deterrent for intruders. The risk of getting caught or having their image recorded while in the middle of a robbery is too high. In fact, intruders often target homes which do not have any alarm system.

In the past, many home owners would pass on security systems because of the invasive installations that were involved. With wireless systems becoming standard in the security industry, a home security system is much easier to install. Often, no major wiring or renovations are necessary. With IP cameras and internet-based solutions, you can monitor your home from anywhere as long as you have a smartphone with access to the internet.

Don’t give intruders an open invitation to break into your home. Have Frontline Security install a state-of-the-art security system. To find out more about installing a security system for your home and/or business, contact Frontline Security today at 403-291-9311.
