"Ocala's Premiere Home Security Locksmith"
Total Home Protection in 3 steps!
Professional Security Inspection.
I will personally complete your security inspection systematically identifying
areas that may need improvement. Outside, inside, room to room. At the
completion of this process you will
receive a written report with recommendations
for specific security improvements. Feel free
to ask questions and you're not under any
obligation to complete these recommended
security improvements. Completing these
recommendations however, will make your home a
much harder target.
Criminals will often bypass your home if it requires too much effort or risk.
Complete Recommended Security Improvements.
"When you loc
k your door, what's outside should
STAY outside".
The average burglar spends less than 3 minutes trying to get into your home. That statistic alone makes improving your home security absolutely essential. Completing the recommended security improvements greatly reduces the chances of being a victim. Becoming a burglary victim can leave a family feeling vulnerable and violated.
• The average burglar spends less than 3 minutes trying to get in to your home.
Create enough of a deterrent and you've defeated most burglars.
• Criminals look for an easy, safe and profitable target.
"Nicer" neighborhoods are often targeted (nicer things to steal) and these crimes are often well planned as they do their own "security inspections" looking for easy targets.
• Most burglars enter your home through one of your doors.
Most home doors (with deadbolts) can be kicked open with one good kick. Simply having a locksmith change the deadbolts to more expensive ones does nothing for your family's security.
• While most burglaries are committed during the day when nobody is home, there is a growing trend of violent home invasions.
The Locksmith Company offers Locking Systems that resist kick-ins, picking and "bump keys". One of the systems we install has a "lockout" feature that makes the outside keyway useless! Push a button from the inside of your home and "Whatever is outside, STAYS outside". Even if a person has a key to your home!
• "Bump Keys", Picked Locks and Previous Owner Keys make up a small percentage of all burglaries.
These crimes while they are not as common are more painful for the victim. Because there is no sign of forced entry, many times insurance companies will not pay on these claims. Their position is: "You left the door unlocked".
"I am a Ocala Locksmith. I live here and work here"
Professional Home Inventory.
A Fire, Flood, Storm or Theft can happen to anyone, at any time. A professional
home inventory is an important part of your family's total security. Simply being
"fully insured" means little when you can't show documentation of what you own. If you read your insurance policy carefully you will see that your insurance company "recommends" a home inventory.
A home inventory is a detailed list of your personal property located in your home for the purpose of providing proof of ownership in the case of a loss. A home inventory is extremely important for insurance purposes. After a loss, it's the first thing your insurance adjuster will ask for. If you didn't have a current inventory of your personal property, you would be asked to create one. This is not very easy after everything is gone. When you make an insurance claim for damaged, lost, or stolen property, your insurance company will require you to list details such as quantity, description, make, model, serial numbers, estimated value etc. . If you forget some items or fail to provide an acceptable description of others, you may not receive full compensation for your losses.
Remember this: Claims adjusters have a difficult job. They usually have a fairly heavy caseload and are under pressure to resolve these cases quickly. They're obligated to serve you during a claim but at the end of the day their primary responsibility is to look after the financial interests of the insurance company. In short....If you can't prove your loss, you may have a hard time getting compensated.
"The Locksmith Company's Home Inventory Service provides a
professional Home Inventory designed to Maximize and Expedite your claim.
www.ocalahomeinventory.com
Here are just a few benefits of our Home Inventory Service:
• Maximum Insurance Benefits- We provide a complete and accurate third party report documenting your property with details and digital photos. In the event of a loss there is no need to "remember" everything you own. You won't miss anything.
• Fast, Efficient Claims Processing- Within minutes of a loss you can deliver a full, accurate inventory of every item you own to the Insurance Company or Law Enforcement. It will be delivered in a format easily accessible and most desired by Insurance Companies. This frees you to handle other things during this difficult time.
• Identify and Reclaim Stolen Property- Your Home Inventory will serve as a written documentation of ownership of your personal property. More valuable items such as a big screen TV would benefit from our "hidden identification system" which adds another level of security. To reclaim stolen items, you can provide a copy of your Home Inventory to Law Enforcement for immediate identification and proof of ownership.
• Evaluate Insurance Coverage- Your Home Inventory will show a total estimated replacement value so that you can evaluate your insurance coverage. Don't risk being underinsured and settling for less than full compensation.
• Assists with your Estate Planning- Your Home inventory will include a report based on "category" and one based on "location". You will be able to keep track of where items are in your home, their estimated value and can even include in your report who gets these items when you pass on.
• Creates peace of mind- A professional Home Inventory creates peace of mind knowing that things are "handled" in the case of an emergency. No longer do you have to worry if a loved one would be able to get through this difficult time. Besides, completing the inventory can be a fun experience!
"Statistics from the National Insurance Industry show that homeowners who have a thorough inventory collect more when submitting claims than those who do not."
"Insurance companies want to completely restore your property but can only do so with accurate documentation."
A Basic Home Inventory Includes:
• Documentation of Your Personal Property
• Digital Picture Documentation
• (2) Home Inventory by Category Reports
• (2) Home Inventory by Location Reports
• (1) Data CD which Includes your complete Inventory and Digital Images
• On request, I will store a backup CD of your Inventory for 18 months free of charge. This CD will be labeled with your drivers license number. No other identifying information will be used.
As with all Locksmith Services, The Locksmith Company's Owner/Operator Ed Tolp personally completes your inventory from "Quote to Completion"
Here's what happens in a Home Inventory:
1) You contact me.
I will set up an appointment time with you and answer any questions you may have. Most times I can give you an estimate right over the phone. On occasion I may ask to visit your home or business before your scheduled appointment date to give you a more accurate quote.
2) On the day of your Inventory I will meet with you at your home where we can go over details such as the items you wish to include, areas you would like me to avoid etc. When we are comfortable with the details of your expectations I will be ready to start your inventory. My payment policy is to collect 50% at the time of the inventory and the other half on the delivery of your finished product. I ask that you be present during the entire Inventory and I encourage input at anytime, especially on important items such as their age or value.
3) I start your inventory and work at a fairly rapid pace. I travel systematically around each and every room. I'll take pictures, record serial numbers, document descriptions and the condition of the items. You can direct me as much or as little as you please.
After completing the inside of your home, I'll take a few pictures of the outside of your home. If we have agreed to complete an inventory of a garage or shed, I will complete them at this time.
4) I return to my office to upload photos and enter the raw data into our secure software. During the next few days I will complete your reports and data CD. I will then call you to arrange a time for delivery. At delivery I spend a few minutes to go over your reports and allow you to view your data CD. I answer any questions you may have before collecting the balance due. Please review the reports for accuracy over the next two weeks and report any corrections that need to be made. After that time I allow one update per year at no additional charge. Updates can be e-mailed or sent by standard mail.
On Request: I will store a backup CD of your Inventory for 18 months free of charge. This CD will be labeled with your drivers license number. No other external identifying information will be used. If you don't elect to have The Locksmith Company store a backup CD for you, at delivery, I will ask you to sign for "The Only" printed copies or your Inventory and CD data file. All inventory information is immediately removed from working computers and all handwritten notes shredded.
