We all have security concerns, whether it’s feeling that our homes are secure, or knowing that our business is protected against damage and loss.

There are an estimated 2,329,950 annual burglaries nationwide with an annual loss by victims of approx. 3.1 billion. A burglary takes place every 12 seconds and produces an average loss of $1,675 per event. 60% of residential burglaries occur during daylight hours.

Fortunately, today’s integrated security systems allow us to achieve peace of mind like never before. VHT connects and secures your property by integrating proven security products into your home network. With home automation, your security system can be controlled from anywhere using smartphones and tablets.
