Estate Security 101: What Most Families Get Wrong

You’ve invested in the home, the land, the lifestyle—and you think the gates, alarms, and cameras are enough. But here’s the truth:

Most estate security systems are built for appearances, not outcomes.

They look secure on the surface, but when something real happens—a break-in, a medical emergency, a targeted threat—they fall apart fast. At TXG, we know exactly where the gaps are. And we close them.

The 5 Most Common Estate Security Mistakes

1. Over-Reliance on Technology Alone

Smart cameras, alarms, and motion sensors are great—until they’re bypassed, disabled, or ignored. Tech without human response is surveillance, not security.

2. Untrained or Underqualified Staff

Your estate manager, housekeeper, or landscaper shouldn’t double as your security solution. Without proper vetting and training, they may become your biggest liability.

3. No Emergency Protocols

When the panic button gets pressed, what happens next? If your family and staff don’t have role-based emergency plans, you’re gambling with chaos.

4. Perimeter Focus, Interior Blind Spots

Most families secure the outside—gates, fences, cameras—but ignore vulnerabilities inside the home: unsecured safe rooms, medical kit access, panic routes, children’s areas.

5. No Integration with Local Response Agencies

If your home is off the grid or in a gated community, have you tested response times? Do local agencies know how to access your property fast? Have you trained with them?
