👉 En medio del creciente problema de inseguridad en Argentina, las familias están gastando grandes sumas de dinero en medidas de seguridad para sus hogares. Desde cercos eléctricos hasta rejas y cámaras de seguridad, el costo se ha convertido en una carga constante. Sin embargo, a pesar de estas inversiones, la garantía de seguridad sigue siendo incierta.

00:00Practically, since the beginning of this Arriba Domingo,
00:04it's been more than five hours.
00:06The security, as a fixed cost of hundreds,
00:11I would say thousands of families,
00:14at the heat of what we usually,
00:16as journalists who are on the street,
00:18see, I would say, day after day, hour after hour.
00:25The fixed cost of insecurity, which is getting more and more expensive.
00:29Is security a business for some,
00:32and a suffering for the vast majority?
00:34Of course it is, we know that.
00:36And the costs, from this business,
00:39have increased exponentially.
00:43We are only going to talk about some cases,
00:46which we usually see in the tours we do
00:51through the Conurbano, through the city of Buenos Aires,
00:54through other cities within the country,
00:56every time we cover a police event.
01:00For example, we were talking about security cameras, Guillermo.
01:04Surely, you who are watching us from your home,
01:08have had to, I don't know if install, but at least ask,
01:12how much does a security camera cost,
01:16which surely will not give you the coverage you want.
01:19You need more security cameras.
01:21Well, we prepared a series of plates
01:24so that we can observe concretely
01:28what we are talking about.
01:31How much can a family that wants to feel well protected spend?
01:36That is the question that we have been asking you
01:40since this program began.
01:42And I was telling you, security cameras, electric fence,
01:47the pins for the gates, more and more,
01:52those pins that are placed above gates, bars,
01:57you see them, I think, in your neighborhood.
01:59Yes, yes.
02:00The bars of the corridors, earlier, for the doors.
02:03Well, look at these values.
02:06The electric fence, or electrified,
02:09which is seen more and more,
02:12and not in neighborhoods where there are high-value houses,
02:19but in middle-class neighborhoods.
02:22Well, this fence, on average,
02:25talking and asking different houses
02:28that are dedicated to the area,
02:30is 400,000 pesos between 10 and 20 meters,
02:36to fence and electrify.
02:39Plus the installation.
02:41Plus the installation.
02:44That is, you have to find out
02:49how much the budget of X house is worth
02:52to know how much it gives you in the end.
02:55Can we be talking about 600,000 pesos?
03:00800,000 pesos?
03:02For the electric fence, which is what has become fashionable.
03:06Because many families...
03:08Does it work?
03:09Many families that already had, before,
03:13barbed wire, bars, security cameras.
03:19As we saw recently, in this case of insecurity in Ciudadela,
03:23that you get into with an inhibitor,
03:25so that they don't jump and enter the patio of your house,
03:29the entrance hall,
03:31the electrified fence is what, for many families,
03:35gives you more security.
03:36But is there any guarantee?
03:38Even putting all this, is there any guarantee?
03:41Of course, nothing is absolutely guaranteed
03:44that you will go to sleep quietly in your house
03:47in the times we live in.
03:49But if you want to feel calmer...
03:51Last year, a businessman had all this and more,
03:54and ended up being killed suddenly inside his house.
03:57And he had all this, which you are listing, and more.
04:00Electrified fence, 400,000 pesos, plus installation.
04:04This is what is, in quotation marks...
04:06Do you remember Petinati?
04:08Yes, of course.
04:09Fashionable.
04:10Sorry for the expression.
04:12This is what is fashionable.
04:14What is most at hand,
04:16door hinges.
04:18Those hinges that we all see.
04:20Not the barbed wire.
04:21No, no, no, the soldiers.
04:22The hinges.
04:23What used to be glass bottles.
04:27Exactly.
04:28With cement.
04:30Yes.
04:31Well, now they are those hinges.
04:33The 10-meter strip is 60,000 pesos.
04:36I reiterate, this is an average we have made
04:38from consulting in blacksmith shops and houses...
04:42A relief, yes.
04:44Plus installation.
04:46Security camera.
04:47It is expensive to build.
04:49Well, why is it expensive to build?
04:52Because they don't give a discount.
04:54Speaking to a house that is installing the electrified fence,
04:59they don't give a discount.
05:00They can't give...
05:01You, Guillermo, you need...
05:03If they bring it to me on Saturday, they can't.
05:05No.
05:06They give you two or three months.
05:0715 days.
05:08But in 15 days they can give me 20 pesos.
05:10It's good.
05:11Damn, 60,000 plus installation.
05:14Security camera, one.
05:1630,000, 35,000, 40,000 pesos plus installation.
05:20But a security camera...
05:22No, you need at least four, at least.
05:24If you have a gate, a garage,
05:26you need two that are pointing to the entrance.
05:28At least.
05:30What we were talking about before.
05:31It looks like a mess.
05:33The fences.
05:34How much can I get?
05:35Woodworking jobs are very expensive.
05:37You're buying cheap, Prosper.
05:40250,000 plus installation.
05:42Yes, you're buying cheap.
05:44We're making an average.
05:45Yes.
05:46Why?
05:47Because there are different models.
05:49Different textures.
05:52Different irons.
05:54There are fences that are unbeatable.
05:56There are others that are cheaper to the pocket,
05:59but they don't guarantee it.
06:01But anyway, at least the criminal
06:04who wants to enter your house through that door
06:08will have to make a double effort to get in.
06:12Let's do the math.
06:14How much money does a family like yours spend?
06:16Well, you haven't put in any construction work yet.
06:18In case you have to use everything,
06:19which I think is an exaggeration,
06:21we'd be at 490,000, 740,000 pesos without construction work.
06:26But here, you have to talk about...
06:28Of course, you have to multiply at least by 120.
06:32Here we're talking about 10 meters.
06:34Put 850,000, 900,000 pesos
06:37if you wanted to apply all these measures rigorously,
06:39without construction work.
06:41Average and entry?
06:42You're not talking about 10 meters.
06:43Or hiring an alarm company,
06:44which is also a fixed monthly cost, right?
06:46We don't count the alarm company
06:48because there the services are much more diversified
06:52in the alarm companies.
06:53Depending on which service you hire.
06:55Exactly, depending on the technology you use.
06:57But notice that this is very rudimentary.
07:00Perhaps the most sophisticated thing we have
07:03is the electrified fence,
07:05but we place it because, I reiterate,
07:07it's what's in fashion.
07:08It's what many families,
07:10who may already have these three areas,
07:13and more,
07:14well, they keep coming to me,
07:16I appeal to the electrified fence
07:18that my neighbor got the result.
07:20But of course, it's getting more and more expensive.
07:23That's why we talk about fixed costs, Guille.
07:25People find it very difficult to survive.
07:29And the fixed cost of security has become
07:32something that reveals the family.
07:34What's the most important thing?
07:35Our family, our home.
07:37Who would invest that money, if we have it, of course.
07:41I'll be honest with you.
07:43I don't invest absolutely anything in that.
07:46Because I think it's an environmental attitude.
07:49It can happen to you, as we have seen.
07:51We saw it today.
07:52We were with a cell phone, with five cameras, with everything.
07:55It has to happen to you.
07:56But don't you narrow the margin of error?
07:58Do you feel calmer?
07:59I think you should invest.
08:01What I'm saying is controversial,
08:03but I think the more security you put on the thief,
08:06the more he tries to break it.
08:08Because he says, why do you put all this?
08:10Because you keep something very dangerous.
08:11Yes, it's not a bad reading.
08:12It occurs to me.
08:13Maybe I was lucky and nothing else.
