Get instant notifications

Speaking of smart upgrades, let’s talk about smart locks. If you’ve ever found yourself standing outside your house, wondering where the kids misplaced their keys this time, you’ll appreciate the convenience of a smart lock. No more spare keys hidden under the doormat or panic when a key goes missing. With a smart lock, you can control access from your phone and even get notified when the kids arrive home. It’s a small change that can make a big difference in how secure and stress-free your day feels.

Add a smart lock to your home security system for as little as $1/mo. for the first 3 months*.

Show them how it works

Now, we all know kids are quick learners, especially when it comes to technology. So, why not take a few minutes to teach them the basics of home security? Show them how to lock the doors, arm the security system, and what to do if something doesn’t feel right. This way, they’re not just relying on you for safety - they’re part of the solution. And while you’re at it, a gentle reminder that sharing the Wi-Fi password with the whole neighborhood isn’t the best idea wouldn’t hurt either.

Another thing to consider is your home’s outdoor security. Good lighting is a simple yet effective way to keep your property safe. Motion-activated lights can deter unwanted visitors and help ensure that those early morning or late evening arrivals are well-lit and safe. Combine that with a few strategically placed security cameras, and you’ve got a solid setup that keeps an eye on things even when you can’t.

Share the plan

But security isn’t just about the physical aspects - it’s also about being prepared for the unexpected. Having a family emergency plan in place is crucial. Make sure everyone in the family knows what to do if the security system goes off or if there’s an emergency while you’re not home. It’s like a practice drill, but with real-life stakes, and reviewing it regularly ensures everyone knows their role.

As you navigate the back-to-school season, taking these steps will help you maintain peace of mind, knowing that your home and family are well-protected. At Reed Security, we’re committed to helping you keep your home safe. Whether you’re looking to upgrade your system or just need some advice, we’re here to assist.

So, as you focus on getting the kids out the door and into their school routine, remember that securing your home doesn’t have to be complicated. A few thoughtful changes can make all the difference in keeping your family safe, no matter what the school year brings.

Did you recently cancel your home phone line? If so, you may no longer be connected to Reed Security's 24/7 Monitoring Stations (and no longer have Guard, Police, and Fire dispatch).
