Skills That Make Me a Nightmare

Skills That Make Me a Nightmare (and Liam Neeson)

I do have are a very particular set of skills ; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.”

The above quotation is from Liam Neeson in the film “ Taken ”. I believe that whoever wrote the movie’s script was inspired by home security systems , sound farfetched? Am I forcing it? Feel me out.

Home security systems are proactive . They protect things and people. They have a unique set of skills. For a thief or burglar, a home security system is a nightmare . First, the mere possibility of an alarm system puts stresses on a burglar. When a burglar sees an ATP Alarms yard sign accompanied by window decals, he or she will think twice about breaking into that home.

For those stupid enough to try to penetrate an ATP Alarmssecurity system , they are in for a rude awakening. The security system has skills.

1. It has a door contact, preventing a robber from making an easy entrance.
2. The basement windows have barrier bars, preventing a robber from kicking through the basement windows
3. The first floor has a motion detector, making it nearly impossible to move around if they find access through an non contacted window
4. The keypads have panic buttons in case the homeowners feel threatened or suspect danger. This gives the homeowners a direct line to the police department.
5. It has cellular transmission in case the burglar tries to get creative and cut the phone line.
6. It has a 24 hour backup battery in case there is a power outage or if the intruder cuts the power intentionally.

As I always tell our customers, thieves are lazy, that is why they are thieves. If you have a security system , it means a burglar will need to work that much harder to try to gain entrance into your home. Thieves do not like hard work, which is why they are not working at a real job.
