SimpliSafe among wireless home security options

GNM6QRI7N.2
SIMPLISAFE -
The SimpliSafe wireless security system includes, first row from left, a keypad, keychain remote, sensors and a base station, which includes an alarm and cellular device.

This system is among the new generation of wireless setups for home security. It is designed to help you protect your home without installation fees, lengthy service contracts or a telephone line. Components include entry and motion sensors, a panic button, and a keypad with settings for when residents are home or away. The base station has an alarm and a cellular device that can call SimpliSafe’s dispatch center. The base station regularly checks the status of entry and motion sensors, which must be positioned within 500 feet. Customize the alarm settings by connecting a computer to the USB drive on the system’s remote control, which is small enough to attach to your keychain. $15 monthly for optional monitoring. The hardware costs around $230 for a basic system, with options for add-ons. http://simplisafe.com Karen Sullivan
