For those who rent or frequently move, it's nice to be able to tailor your home security to your ever-changing needs, without having to settle for a contract or fixed security package.

With some research, you can come up with the best DIY home security system for you and your family. Keep reading to add some of these features below to your checklist when considering a DIY security system for your home.

Assess Your Home for Weak Spots

The first step you should make when planning your DIY home security system is to assess your home and land for potential weak spots or areas that are vulnerable to break-ins or hiding spots. Oftentimes, these spots may be blind spots by your garage that can’t be seen from the house or around tall hedges, shrubs, or plants.

Take note of any broken fences, weak doors, or faulty windows, as these can all be access points for potential intruders. Once you understand what can be better reinforced around your home, then you can begin to build your customizable security system.

Consider Your Budget

People are usually surprised to know that customized home security systems are generally cheaper upfront than through contracts or package offers. This is because you only pay for the assets you need. Plus DIY home security plans come with the flexibility to upgrade or reduce your security choices as your home needs change. With tattletale® home security, you won’t receive any monthly fees or contracts. You can also save any installation costs if you install the easy-to-use systems yourself.
