Alarm Systems

Protection you can
RELY ON

Alarm systems have never been smarter or more convenient to ecorporate into your home security systems. With huge advances in alarm technology it is easier than ever to choose a smart system to suit you and your family.

Wired Alarm systems to suit YOU

Wired alarms are the traditional form of house alarm, where all main components i.e. keypad, sensors, sirens etc. are all connected by 12V security cable.

Find out below if a wired alarm system would suit your property:

  • You already have an existing wired alarm which you are hoping to upgrade. Cabling can remain safe and effective for up to 60 years, so it is more cost effective to use the existing wiring and replace the main components of the alam with a more up to date model.
  • Wired alarms obviously have cables connecting the elements of the alarm system, if you have roof cavities or ample under floor space, these cables can be hidden, to avoid any tampering or damage.
  • Wired alarms are exceptionally low maintenance, with a mains back up battery needing replacing every 5 years, the rest of the system requires no maintenance.
  • A wired alarm is the most cost effective option, in both initial purchasing fees and maintenance.

THE CONVENIENCE OF
Wireless alarm systems

Regardless of your property type, you can now rest assured that there is a system to suit you. With huge advances in battery technology and sensors, wireless alarms are reliable and convenient ways to proptect your home.

IS A WIRELESS ALARM RIGHT FOR YOU?

A wireless alarm system uses a specific radio frequency for all of the components to communicate with each other, running from its own battery power supply. The batteries last up to 2-4 years and sensors use battery saving methods to ensure a longer battery life. Although when first introduced wireless systems were unreliable due to interfering radio frequencies, these problems have been well and truly dismissed with an advance in wireless technologies.

Find out below if a wireless alarm system would suit your property:

  • If your property has limited roof cavity or under floor space, cabling could be exposed and therefore at risk of tampering, wireless alarms are a much more secure option in these circumstances.
  • Wireless alarm systems are considered cost effective due to the reduced installation time and fees. With no cabling to be run, the installation is much simpler.
  • With more families renting rather than owning a property, the risk of moving more frequently is higher, because of this many renters are choosing to install wireless systems as they can be easily removed and transported to another home, without the concerns of rewiring and removing cables etc.
