What to Expect During a Home Security Assessment from Frontier Security

When it comes to protecting your home, the best defense starts with a detailed understanding of your property’s vulnerabilities. That’s where a professional home security assessment comes in.

Whether you’re building a custom home in Highlands Ranch or living in an older property near Congress Park, no two homes—or their risks—are alike. Frontier Security offers complimentary home security evaluations for Denver residents that go far beyond just checking for locked doors or functional cameras.

This article explains exactly what you can expect from a security assessment, why it’s important, and how it becomes the foundation for a custom security plan designed around your home, your habits, and your local crime profile.

Why Schedule a Home Security Assessment?

Many homeowners assume their home is “safe enough” simply because they have a Ring camera or alarm system installed. But those devices alone can’t:

• Detect weak points in your perimeter
• Assess lighting or landscaping vulnerabilities
• Account for daily habits or travel routines
• Recommend best practices for layered security

A full assessment from Frontier Security provides insight into areas you may not even realize are putting your home at risk—and delivers actionable solutions, whether or not you become a client.

What Happens During the Assessment?

Here’s a step-by-step look at what our licensed security consultants do during an on-site evaluation:

1. Exterior Property Inspection

We start by examining the outside of your home, including:

• Doors (front, back, side, garage)
• Windows and sliding glass doors
• Garage and gate access
• Fences and perimeter barriers
• Outdoor lighting placement
• Landscaping that could provide cover

We’ll identify areas where intruders may find easy access or concealment—and provide recommendations for hardening those zones.

2. Interior Vulnerability Review

With your permission, we then evaluate key interior points such as:

• Entryways and deadbolt functionality
• Alarm system location and coverage
• Blind spots in camera surveillance
• Visibility from windows
• Location of high-value items

This step is crucial for mapping out how a break-in might progress—and how to stop it before it starts.

3. Technology Audit

Many homes already have smart devices in place. We assess:

• Alarm systems (DIY or professional)
• Camera placement and reliability
• Wi-Fi vulnerabilities or blind spots
• Notification systems and app usage

We can also offer guidance on integrating professional patrol response with your existing devices.

4. Daily Routine Risk Mapping

Believe it or not, your routines may be tipping off criminals. We discuss:

• Typical arrival/departure times
• Delivery schedules
• Vacation habits
• Regular visitors or maintenance crews

This helps us understand when your home is most vulnerable and suggest patrol schedules or tech upgrades that match.

5. Neighborhood Threat Context

Using real-time data from Denver crime reports and our own incident logs, we’ll compare your home’s location with current criminal activity in:

• Property theft
• Burglary attempts
• Loitering or trespassing
• Vehicle break-ins

This gives you a clear picture of your true risk level, not just what you assume based on past experiences.

6. Custom Protection Plan Recommendation

After completing the assessment, we’ll provide a summary that may include:

• Lighting upgrades
• Entry reinforcement suggestions
• Alarm system enhancements
• Patrol frequency recommendations
• Package protection tips
• Vacation monitoring options

And if you choose to work with us, we’ll build a fully customized patrol or monitoring plan tailored to your property and lifestyle.

How Long Does It Take?

Most home security assessments take 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of your property and complexity of existing systems. Larger estates or multi-structure properties may take slightly longer.

We offer flexible scheduling and no-pressure consultations—this is about helping you stay safe, not selling unnecessary equipment.

Who Should Schedule a Security Assessment?

• New homeowners in unfamiliar neighborhoods
• Residents with a recent break-in or suspicious activity
• Families leaving for extended vacations or business travel
• Individuals with high-value assets at home
• Seniors living alone or with caregivers
• HOAs considering patrol coverage for an entire community

What It’s Not: A Sales Pitch

We don’t send sales reps—we send experienced security professionals who will listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and give honest feedback. Whether or not you choose to use Frontier Security for ongoing protection, you’ll leave the assessment with practical, expert recommendations.

Final Thoughts: Know Before It’s Too Late

Security isn’t something to figure out after the fact. With threats constantly evolving and crime expanding into once-quiet neighborhoods, a proactive home security assessment gives you the advantage of foresight—and the ability to act before anything goes wrong.

Frontier Security is proud to offer free, no-obligation assessments to Denver residents who want smarter protection and real peace of mind.
