San Francisco, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/18/2014 -- Home security is paramount for anyone who owns their own home or has a family, and the dangers families face in the home come not just from criminals. Fire destroys thousands of homes a year and tragically costs lives in the process. Having an optimal system for preventing fire, and alerting in case of fire, is of utmost importance. DIY Home Security Systems is an online magazine that specializes in helping people kit out their homes with the latest and best equipment, and is now offering a free fire assessment to anyone who visits their website.

The free assessment asks people to share the number of rooms, the number of smoke alarms and the placement of those alarms in order to generate a detailed risk assessment of possible fires that could occur without triggering an alarm until it is too late. The report also looks at the optimum distribution of fire alarm systems and alternatives, including extinguishers and more.

Fire is only one of the security measures covered by the site however, with detailed information on DIY security cameras, intruder alarms and more. The site is regularly updated with new articles and ideas to ensure their readership are always up to date on the latest technological and strategic developments.

A spokesperson for DIY Home Security Systems explained, "The free fire assessment has been designed to help people get a better grasp on the most common fire patterns observed in different types of home, and how these affect the fire alarm set up that people should be using. A lot of this information is not common knowledge, but by offering people a free assessment complete with recommendations, we are helping more people become better aware of the major dangers and how best to prevent them costing thousands in damages or God forbid, costing human lives."
