Reliable Alarm Systems That You Can Use To Secure Your Space

by Securitec Security Commercial & Residential Security

The times have changed and so has the volume of unlawful activities. Security and safety are the main things on your mind. When you secured your windows and doors in the past, you felt more secure than you do now. The following is a list of security alarm system types to consider for your home.

Entry Point Detection System:

Entry point detection systems are the most basic monitoring devices accessible because they monitor points such as doors and windows. When building a new home, they are commonly installed. These systems monitor the status of a reed switch detector that is either open or closed based on the sensor's magnet location. The main panel will detect resistance on the circuit when closed and will read an open circuit when the entry point is open.

Smoke Alarm:

A smoke alarm is an alarm system that is commonly used. It is effective for both residential and commercial buildings. The alarm's component smoke detectors are placed throughout the house. When these detectors come into contact with heat or smoke, they sound the alarm. This will alert anyone onsite to vacate the premises as soon as possible.

Residential Alarm System:

Alarm systems that are not monitored, sometimes called "local" alarms, rely on you or a neighbour to call the authorities in case of an emergency. Aural and visual alarms are activated when your unmonitored system trips. Unmonitored systems are typically less expensive than monitored ones. Conversely, unmonitored devices don't provide the same level of protection because they don't notify a monitoring centre of your position, which would prevent the dispatch of first responders. Even if the alarm goes directly to your phone, you might not be able to respond to it if you are not near your device or your mobile service is bad.

Intruder Alert:

If you are concerned about a break-in at your home, you must need an intruder alarm. These alarm systems come equipped with door, window, and motion detection sensors. The alarm is set up with a central keypad which is pin number protected. When the detectors are triggered, they detect any movement or unauthorised entry and sound the alarm. Simultaneously, the local law enforcement authorities will also be informed.

Alarm systems are one of the basic bricks of your residential or commercial security system. It helps to protect you from various dangers and keeps your premises safe. Thereby, even in your absence, you can keep your premises safe.
