Do you folks have any special / fancy home security systems in place?

Solid security starts from the outside. Most people who like privacy have high walls and tall shrubs around the parameter. Burglars take advantage of that same privacy. Keep that in mind. A clear view of your property from the street or from the neighbors works in your favor.
Motion sensors (with timers) on bright lights around the property.
Infrared beans set inside the property line but well beyond the entrance points and the house itself can trigger lights and alarms.
Alarm siren that is can offer both the noise and a prerecorded message.
Solar/battery backup on everything that is powered by electricity.
