We also look at whether the equipment in each system's starter kit requires additional tools such as screwdrivers and batteries. Finally, we time how long it takes to set up each component. We found Scout Alarm, SimpliSafe and abode easier to set up than most other DIY security systems. How much do DIY security systems cost?There are three costs you can expect with most DIY security systems: equipment, access fees and professional security monitoring. You can expect to spend an average of $250 on equipment, though this goes up as you buy more sensors. Access fees are sometimes required to unlock all or part of a system's self monitoring features for about $10 a month. With regards to professional monitoring, you can expect to pay between $15 and $30 a month for the service, which generally covers any access fees as well. This is lower than the $37 average on traditional security systems and doesn't require a contract; not all DIY security systems have professional monitoring. What equipment should you get?Begin with a starter kit that covers your basic DIY home security needs such as the number of motion detectors and entry sensors for your home's size. From there, you can choose other devices to enhance the surveillance around your home. Most of the systems we tested sell add ons to boost your security beyond the basics.

DIY home security systems have no installation fees and cost much less than traditional systems, as you set the system up yourself. Since you have the freedom to install it whenever you want, there’s no need to schedule an appointment and wait for a technician. With DIY systems, you have control over the entire configuration and are able to place sensors, cameras, and other equipment in areas you believe best protect your home.

If you’re a renter and are interested in a home security system, it’s best to first check with your landlord and review your rental agreement. More often than not, renters aren’t permitted to mount or install anything within the home. However, there are a number of home security systems that are designed with renters in mind and can work around these restrictions. Wireless, do it yourself home security systems are usually the best options for renters. They require no installation, are simple to set up, and can easily be moved should the renter relocate to a new residence.
