security sign

Protected premises notice

A security sign is a posted notice warning that a property is protected by an alarm system, surveillance cameras, or monitoring service.

These signs serve as deterrents, alerting potential intruders that the premises are watched: The security sign in the window made burglars think twice.

Many homeowners display security signs even without active systems, banking on the deterrent effect alone.
