To most homeowners, security system signs may be more than an advertisement for the company that installed their burglar alarm as they hope it serves as a deterrent to crime as well. To the more experienced burglar security system signs act as a warning that a system has been installed and unless they are willing to take a chance on being able to quickly beat the system, they tend to move on to another residence that appears to lack protection.

Following to rapid growth of home security systems in the 1970’s, companies were springing up that only sold security system signs, leaving it up to the burglars to decide which homes had a system installed and which ones only had signs in the yard. In many instances they had a 50 percent chance of being right, but most inexperienced burglars were reluctant to take the gamble with those kind of odds.

There were also the homemade security system signs that may have offered cautionary messages about the type of security system that was protecting the home and property. For example, one such sign advised would-be burglars that a rattlesnake protected the house three days a week, but the burglar had to guess which three days. As a deterrent to break-ins, these security system signs offered limited protection.

Advertising Specific Services On System Signing

For security companies the use of security system signs not only helps protect the homeowner from break-ins but also serves as advertising for others in the neighborhood. Many times homeowners may be interested in having an alarm system installed but are reluctant to make a decision on which company to use. When they see a company’s security system signs in a neighbor’s yard they may give them more consideration that simply pulling a name out of the local phone directory.

However, security system signs are not limited to use in the front yard. Many company’s also supply small window stickers that can be placed on the windows of homes and businesses and still others provide the security system signs for vehicles in which an alarm has been installed.

For many the use of security system signs is considered a warning to those who might consider breaking into a home, business or vehicle and as far as the owner is concerned, they had the chance to back away and move on to an unprotected property. If they choose to violate the property in spite of the presence of security system signs, they deserve whatever punishment they get when they get caught by the alarm system.
