[Evans, Marv]

I have one in the house I'm finishing up now for my wife & I. The house is away from urban areas, so I'm not going to rely on the phone contact to get the police there in a hurry. All lines which include power & phone among others are buried. The system has more features than I would ever use and gives my wife a decent sense of security. All perimeter doors & windows are monitored as well as the side garage door and there are interior motion sensors. One feature I like is the "at home" setting which leaves the perimeter sensors operating but turns off the motion sensors so we can move around inside. There are two interior sirens and two exterior sirens, and the neighbors we have in the area do a pretty decent job of looking out for each other. Then there are the two nine milimeters I have stashed in selected locations. I know nothing makes anyone absolutely secure, but I feel decent about it.
