Halloween is Saturday. If your dog thinks every doorbell ring is a personal invitation, this one's for you. 🎃🐶

Trick-or-treat night means the front door opens over and over, and that's when pets slip out, doors get left unlocked, and nobody's watching the porch. A few easy fixes:

1️⃣ Door sensor alerts: get a phone notification the second the front door opens, so you know if it was left open or someone (furry or not) got out.
2️⃣ Video doorbell: see and talk to trick-or-treaters without opening the door every time.
3️⃣ Heading out to a party? Arm the system before you leave. With 24/7 monitoring, a real person at the monitoring center gets the signal if something trips while you're gone.

Quick tip: put the dog in a back room or crate during peak trick-or-treat hours, and keep the porch light on.

Home Shield Alarm is a local Ohio company. Monitoring starts around $27.99/mo and cameras around $34.99/mo.

Tag the person whose dog loses it at every doorbell. 👇

Storm knocks the power out. Or the Wi-Fi just quits. Is your alarm still watching? 🤔

Here's what a properly set-up monitored system does:

1️⃣ Wi-Fi goes down: a system that depends only on your internet can go quiet without you knowing.
2️⃣ Backup battery + cellular signal: the control panel keeps running on its battery and talks to the monitoring center over a cellular connection instead of your Wi-Fi.
3️⃣ 24/7 monitoring still answers: if a door, motion, smoke, or CO sensor trips, a real person at the monitoring center still gets the signal and sends help.

Quick check you can do tonight: ask your alarm company (or check your app) whether your system has a cellular connection and when its backup battery was last tested.

Not sure about yours? Call us and we'll tell you straight. Home Shield Alarm is a local Ohio company. Monitoring starts around $27.99/mo and cameras around $34.99/mo.

Share this with a neighbor who lost power in the last storm. ⚡

Be honest: how many nights this year has your garage door stayed open until morning? 🦝

A) Never. I check it every night.
B) Once or twice...
C) Please don't ask my raccoon.

Drop your letter in the comments, and tag the person in your house who always leaves it open. 😄

An open garage is an easy way into the house for more than raccoons. A garage door sensor on a Home Shield system sends a heads-up to your phone when it's left open, and the rest of your system (door sensors, cameras, and 24/7 police, fire, and medical monitoring) keeps watch overnight.

Clocks fall back this Sunday, Nov. 1. Your house is about to get dark an hour earlier. 🕰️

Coming home in the dark is when a lot of us realize the porch light's been off all week. Take five minutes this weekend while you're changing the clocks:

✅ Put a couple of lamps on plug-in timers so the house looks lived in at 5:30
✅ Check that your outdoor cameras still have a clear view (fall leaves and spider webs love lenses)
✅ Make sure porch and driveway lights work, or switch them to dusk-to-dawn bulbs
✅ Press the test button on your smoke and CO detectors

Tag the person in your house who's in charge of changing the clocks. (Every house has one.)

Trick-or-treat honor system, 2026 edition. 🎃👀

Tag the neighbor who leaves the candy bowl out and hopes for the best.

A quick Halloween tip while we're at it: if you're heading out with the kids, leave a porch light on, lock the doors behind you, and arm the system so you get an alert if anything opens while you're gone. A doorbell camera lets you see who's at the door from your phone, candy bowl included.

New exhibit: The Spare Key Under the Mat. 🗝️ Ohio, c. 1950 to 2026. Retired.

It had a good run. So did the fake rock. The trouble is that the doormat, the flowerpot, and the "rock" by the steps are the first three places anyone checks, including people you'd rather not have inside.

What replaces it:

🔢 A smart lock with door codes. Give the dog walker or a relative their own code, and turn it off when you're done.
📱 An alert on your phone the moment the front door opens, so you know who came home and when.
🔔 A video doorbell, so you can see who's at the door before you open it, even from work.
🛡️ 24/7 monitoring behind it all, so a real problem gets help fast.

Let the old key retire with dignity. We'll set you up with something smarter.

If you could lift the roof off your house, here's where the protection should be. 🏠

A good security system isn't one camera by the door. It's a few small pieces in the right spots, all talking to each other:

🚪 Front door: a door sensor and a keypad, so you know the second it opens.
🔔 Porch: a video doorbell, so you can see who's there before you answer.
🪟 Living room: window sensors and a motion detector for the rooms people would actually walk through.
📷 Inside: an indoor camera you can check from your phone (yes, including the cat).
🔥 Upstairs: monitored smoke and carbon monoxide detectors near the bedrooms.

When something trips, our 24/7 monitoring center gets the signal and sends help, whether you're home, at work, or asleep.

We'll walk your house with you and lay it out room by room. Monitoring from about $27.99/mo.

First night you turned the heat on this fall? Take 30 seconds for this. 🍂

When the furnace kicks on for the season, it's the right time to think about the alarms on your ceiling, not just the thermostat on your wall.

🔥 Test your smoke detectors and swap old batteries.
💨 Make sure you have a carbon monoxide detector near bedrooms and on every level. CO has no smell and no color.
📡 With monitored smoke and CO detectors, our 24/7 monitoring center gets the signal even if you're asleep, at work, or away for the weekend, and sends help.

Same system that covers your doors, windows, and cameras can watch for fire and CO too.
