Why Do I Love Being a Security Advisor?

I love what I do at American Total Protection , Security Advisor. Providing peace of mind for families and businesses is what drives me each and every day.

We know each person has a reason for installing a security system. Whether it’s protecting loved ones, ensuring the safety of valuables, or having the simple ability to access state of the art technology through their smartphone or tablet, it still comes down a feeling….and that’s ‘ peace of mind ’. Home Security makes our lives more efficient, and in the busy world we live in, allows us to go through the day knowing ‘ what we love ’ is protected.

We know we can’t be in more than one place at a time. Whether it’s an inquiry about a simple home alarm, motion sensors, window or door contacts, keyless entry, infrared sensors, surveillance cameras, personal panic button, smoke or carbon detector etc. it all boils down to one thing….. security allows us to rest a bit easier .

Here’s the best part about what I do; people are truly happy to see me when I arrive at their home! The fact that I can be a part of something bigger than myself, and help families with what they treasure most, means the world to me. There are also instances where I visit with a new family, and they aren’t exactly sure what they want but at the very least, they know they want to feel safe. In that case…I’m even more thankful I’m there! My goal is to provide that person ‘peace of mind’ through my vast knowledge, great service and customer care; exceeding needs is what I do best.

In fact, I had a recent follow-up appointment with a client who stated….’I was lying in bed last night, arming the new security system, using my phone, and for the very first time since buying the house I felt at peace knowing me and my son were safe.  Up until then, I was always anxious at night….thank you.’

I love what I do.
Every day there is another reason, and another family like you.

This is real life. You need a real security company.

Customer service matters. When choosing a service provider for your home or business, it is important to understand the providers’ customer service capabilities. Does the company have a support team? Do they have an on-call technician if there is an emergency? Does the company make paying the bill easy? How hard is it to schedule service? We all want to support local and small companies. However, it is important that your local business can service your account in an efficient manner.
Fairfield CT Home Alarm System Upgrade: A Modern Retrofit
By Rence Coassin May 9, 2025
Homeowners choose to buy an alarm system for a variety of reasons—theft, robbery, life safety (Smokes and Carbons, etc.). Depending on the wants, circumstances, and the needs of the customer, ATP designs a custom solution. If a homeowner or business has an existing alarm, American Total Protection does its best to utilize the working devices and infrastructure. In many cases, we can use everything. However, some times the devices are too old (smoke detectors and CO’s have a recommended replacement date) or wireless devices can be encrypted. ATP has the knowledge and experience to design systems that utilize existing components where applicable in order to control cost.
