One of the most essential components of the ideal home security system is a state-of-the-art alarm system. At Secure-as Security, our home alarm systems offer something for everyone. Our systems not only detect would-be burglars but also heat, fire and smoke, vibrations, glass breaks, floods, and much more. With customisable options and 24/7 monitoring, you can trust that your home is always protected from a wide range of potential threats.
At Secure-as Security, we believe no two homes are the same, so why should their security systems be? That's why we offer personalised home security systems tailored to meet the security and safety needs of every type of property. From panic buttons to emergency services connections and CCTV cameras, we've got you covered—because when it comes to home security, one size definitely doesn't fit all!
A home alarm system is designed to detect unusual activity or potential threats within your property and trigger an immediate response. It works through a network of sensors, including motion detectors, door/window contacts, and cameras, which constantly monitor your home. When these sensors detect a breach, whether a forced entry, broken glass, or even unusual heat, the system sends an alert to you and, if desired, a monitoring service or emergency services.
Installing an alarm system in your home or property provides several benefits. These benefits include:
A hardwire burglar alarm system connects sensors to a control panel through a network of wires hidden within the walls and floors of a home. It operates on electricity, with a battery backup in case of power outages. This is still the most reliable security alarm solution, and whilst the initial setup is more complex, the long-term maintenance is low compared to that of a wireless alarm system.
A wireless alarm system uses radio waves to connect the sensors and control panel. When triggered, they send a signal to the security alarm panel, which then triggers a siren. Sensors require batteries to operate and often need replacement. Whilst the initial setup is quick, the ongoing maintenance cost is something to consider.
A hybrid security alarm system is a mix of hardwire and wireless. It's particularly useful in cases where an old home alarm system needs replacement with an option of adding new sensors in areas where it's hard to run cable or unsightly to do so. There is a definite uptake in this type of system as it provides more flexibility in the implementation of a burglar alarm system.
