WHY CONSIDER INSTALLING AN INTRUSION ALARM?

Intrusion alarms, or security alarms are systems designed to detect intrusion, such as unauthorised entry – into a building or other area such as a home, school, or an office.

Intrusion detection systems come in many different forms, and include cameras, sensors (detectors), locks, and communication equipment.

Always-On Security

Intrusion alarms provide around the clock security for your property, and are always ready to notify you when intruders attempt to enter your home.

Multi-Touchpoint Security

Intrusion alarms come in many shapes and forms, and, depending on your unique security requirements, can be customised to give you a complete multi-pronged strategy that warns you when intruders try to enter your property.

Complete Peace Of Mind

Intrusion alarms give you complete peace of mind when it comes to your home, office or building security.

Did You Know That Intrusion Alarm Systems Give You Improved Insurance Rates?

“If you’re the victim of burglary and your home isn’t properly secured, you may find that your home insurance provider could question your claim and refuse to reimburse you for any loss.”

By having an intrusion alarm system installed, you are reducing the risk of someone successfully breaking into your building, thereby reducing the price of insuring your property.

The Components Of An Intrusion Alarm System

Depending on your security requirements, an Intrusion Alarm System consists of different components and parts:

Sensors

Sensors are placed throughout your property to detect any change in sound, movement, or lighting in your home, so as to trigger the alarms in your system.

Sensors (Detectors)

Appropriate and ample sensors and detectors, positioned in the right places throughout your home to thoroughly secure your property.

Acoustic Sensors

A step up from traditional sensors, acoustic sensors detect shock waves of glass breaking.

Door/Window Sensors

These magnetic sensors (switches) trigger an alarm in case of a door or a window is opened by an intruder.

Passive Infrared Detectors (PIR)

Passive infrared detectors (PIR) use sensors to detect motion within your property, further maximising your security.

Smoke Detector

A smoke detector that connects to a third party source, that triggers the alarm when it detects smoke.

Miscellaneous

Besides the configurable components of a typical Intrusion Alarm System, there are also miscellaneous components that make the system work.

Security Keypad

A security keypad that arms and disarms your Intrusion Alarm System.

Concealed Control Panel

A hidden control panel, with uninterrupted power source, which is connected to all other components, including a phone or internet line.

Communication Equipment

Equipment that links up the various portions of your Intrusion Alarm System together, so they work in unison to protect your property.

24-hour Backup System

A 24-hour backup system that switches back on if your phone line is cut off, or if your power supply is down.

Sirens

Sirens mounted inside and/or outside the building to draw help when the alarms are triggered.

Which Intrusion Alarm System Is The Right One For You?

Let’s face it: there are many variations of Intrusion Alarm Systems out there in the market. Which one is the right one for you, and which one works best for you?

Wireless vs. Hardwired Intrusion
Alarm System

Hardwired home and office alarm systems provide higher security levels as a whole, since they are directly connected to your unit’s power source,

with a physical control panel in your unit.
However, the latest wireless systems can also be as reliable as their cable-powered counterparts, while offering more flexibility, as they can be remotely accessed from your mobile device or computer. Depending on your unique needs and habits (do you travel often?), it could help you to choose the right Intrusion Alarm System.

Monitored And
Unmonitored Alarms

A monitored or unmonitored burglar alarm can be both a hardwired or a wireless system. An unmonitored intrusion alarm usually

activates a siren or another noisy device once a sensor within the security system has detected an intrusion. However, this solution might not be suitable for remote properties, since there’s no one to really help you call the cops!

Monitored home alarms, on the other hand, are connected to a third party while the sensors trigger both an alarm and send an alert to the monitoring company. Modern day security systems are also able to connect and alert you on any events on your Smartphone or another mobile device. However, since there’s a third-party monitoring your property for you, you’d need to factor in an additional cost (which might be easy to justify if you’re constantly away from home).

Auto-dialing Intrusion
Alarm Systems

Some Intrusion Alarm Systems that feature an auto dialer can connect to a preset phone number or numbers in case of emergency. For example,

you can send a pre-recorded voice message to police, to a security firm of your choice, or to the local fire fighters, whenever a sensor is triggered, heightening the response time from the authorities.

In addition, some in-house motion sensors can detect if someone is inside the property and can help local security authorities assign proper priority to the accident. If you’re constantly on the road, and you wish for your Intrusion Alarm System to be automated, this is a great choice to consider.
