Alarms
While company- and self-monitored security systems both offer some way of monitoring your home while you’re not there, unmonitored alarm systems are simply intended to scare off intruders as soon as they step foot in your home — but you’ll have to rely on one of your neighbors to call the police if they hear the alarm. While an unmonitored alarm-only system can make quite a racket and scare off those pesky burglars, it’s safe to say that some form of monitoring adds an extra layer of security.
Burglar Alarm
Guaranteed Quality
Installing a home security system can be costly, but not installing one could cost you even more. The sense of security and peace you gain with an alarm system is perhaps the greatest benefit of all...
A security alarm is a system designed to detect intrusion – unauthorized entry – into a building or other area. Security alarms are used in residential, commercial, industrial, and military properties for protection against burglary (theft) or property damage, as well as personal protection against intruders. Adding a security system to your home or business gives you an extra layer of defense against any potential intruders.
Fire Alarm
Guaranteed Quality
Monitored alarm systems will not only warn occupants of the presence of smoke in the home or business, but they will also warn of sources of heat and contact authorities. The saying goes ‘where there is smoke, there is fire’ but it is also true that where there is heat, there could be a fire building which is why it is important to incorporate heat detectors into a fire prevention technique. While heat detectors can be purchased without the installation of a home security system, using a heat detector alone will not signal authorities.
According to the U.S. Fire Administration, in just thirty seconds a small flame can turn in to a full blown fire. In just minutes of a fire breaking out, the home or your business could be filled with thick black smoke that makes it impossible for family members or employees to breathe. These two facts alone are enough to reinforce the importance of having a security system that will signal authorities to respond to a fire. Time is the biggest factor in any emergency, but in the case of fire, time is of the essence. A few seconds of a fire safety concern could mean death or the complete destruction of a home or business and all of its contents.
