CHICAGO: When the economy goes down, crime goes up! Burglaries and home invasions have hit record levels. The most troubling fact is that these crimes are occurring far more frequently in rural and suburban areas pushing up guns and home security as people look for ways to protect their homes and families.
Naperville suburb of Chicago is experiencing a spate of theft and robberies of late which are causing concern among the residents.
In the past several years, the increased distribution of met amphetamine and other drugs has dramatically increased the amount of crime in rural areas. “Better” suburban areas have also seen a significant increase in crime during that same time.
Alan Young, a graduate from Vanderbilt University with a B.S. degree and a dual major in Organizational Development and Economics, and a sought-after speaker and security expert has set up a company to combat this growing menace.
With his engineer brother, they formed Armor Concepts and started producing the highly successful EZ Armor, Door Jamb Armor and ArmorDoor products. Young’s advice to homeowners is to be proactive. Securing your doors and windows is crucial to increasing the likelihood of success against a burglar.
Alan Young’s product, EZ Armor, was put to the test by a news station and police department in Michigan. EZ Armor was recently recommended in an online article about apartment security as “an affordable door security device that will strengthen your entryways and help prevent unwelcome intruders from forcing their way in.”
