Family Security with Home Alarm Systems
Fitting a home security system was once the preserve of the wealthy, but in today’s uncertain social climate, surely it has become almost a necessity.
ADT say that, for those interviewed, 93% of burglars would be deterred by a monitored home alarm system.
Types of Alarm Systems
- Intruder alarms
- Fire detection
- Carbon Monoxide alarms
- Closed Circuit TV (CCTV)
- Controlled Access
A basic household security system will set off an alarm when a door or window is opened and will also have some motion detectors set around the home.
Sophisticated sensors can tell the difference between a pet & a human.
More upmarket versions will have wireless facilities that can be monitored “off-site”. Real time monitoring is also a key feature of the better home security systems.
Even something as simple as getting better quality locks for windows & doors can make a big difference.
