Some customers have assets such as artwork or computers that deserve special protection. Rather than relying only on motion detectors and door/window contacts, these customers may opt to add additional sensors to help secure these valuable items.
Smart security dealers will keep their eye out for opportunities to secure such property. Including specialty sensors in an installation can raise upfront revenues as well as raising customer satisfaction and loyalty. SDM spoke with more than a dozen dealers in researching this story and most of them said they also charge extra for monitoring specialty sensors.
