Why Do I Need To Install An Alarm In My Auckland Home Or Business?
While the reasoning depends on the type of alarm system, they all boil down to the same thing: security. Whether you are protecting your home or business, security systems can make you feel safe.
You will have no more worrying about home intruders attacking your family.
Also, no more fretting over whether or not you locked the door to your business.
A robust security system handles all of that. Below, we are going to go through some different types of alarms, accessories, and sensors.
What Are Different Types Of Business And Home Security Features I Need in Auckland?
You could buy the best alarms NZ has to offer. However, they won’t be accommodating if they aren’t for your needs.
Wired vs Wireless Sensors and Alarms
Wireless technology has been around for a while if your smartphone can play video games and handle your schedule, its only natural for home security systems to make their move as well.
Today, the expectation is to monitor everything from CCTV cameras to all types of alarm monitoring systems wirelessly. All of this removes the clutter of cords from your house.
Wireless systems are incredibly helpful in two-level houses because they tend to have little ceiling space. However, a wired system can be just as good if handled correctly.
Guardsman Security has handled over 5000+ installation and service requests. Our team has the expertise needed to help you decide what would be most appropriate for your home.
Backup Battery
When it comes to installation, a key component to any sound alarm system is a backup battery. Industrious thieves can either take advantage of power outages or try and cut the power line to your house.
Either way, a backup battery ensures that your house is covered regardless of the mains line being unavailable. It is just as important when considering business security needs, as looting has a higher likelihood during a power outage.
Smoke Detectors
In Auckland, New Zealand, you are legally required as a business to have smoke detectors connected to the Fire and Emergency Communication Centres.
Insurance purposes also require it. You may not be able to file a claim if you have failed to prepare for this. As a result, you need to ensure the proper installation and regular service of smoke alarm systems.
Guardsman Security is fully aware of this and ensures that you have a firm connection.
Also, speaking with a security consultant will provide you with some knowledge on the subject. It will ensure that you have one big piece of your fire safety checklist out of the way.
Indoor and Outdoor Sirens
Indoor and outdoor sirens work in culmination with your wired or wireless alarm systems to spook any would-be criminals.
They typically begin to run when they hear a loud blaring noise, fearing immediate police retaliation. Properly established access control will also ensure that you have control of these alarms. It can be set up with an expert from Guardsman Security.
We also recommend annual servicing and maintenance of these systems. False alarms are likely to disturb your neighbours and provide you with unwanted patrol car fees. We offer regular servicing to address these issues.
Wired or Wireless Motion Sensors
When working in tandem with your indoor sirens and wired or wireless security systems, motion sensors are your eyes and ears while you are away.
Because you are a busy person, you aren’t likely to spend the majority of your day looking at analog CCTV systems. Motion sensors have been developed as a critical component of any alarm monitoring system.
If you choose a wired motion sensor, you will be able to view suspicious individuals from somewhere inside of your location. At that point, you can hit a panic button from a protected zone from inside of your own store.
Many modern motion sensing systems can even determine the common behaviours of thieves. Many older alarm systems would alarm if an animal decided it was time to dig through your garage.
Ask our experts about pet-friendly sensors. These will prevent your heat or motion sensors from going off at inappropriate times.
Partial Arming Areas
Say if there are certain areas of your Auckland home or business you’d like to keep people out of at specific times of the day. Most alarm systems, be they wired or wireless, can handle partial arming.
Say if you have a secure location where you keep expensive equipment. There is no reason for customers to be back here, as your technicians are the only ones to be back there.
Partial alarming areas ensure that your customers can continue to come through the front door while unwanted people are not in the back door.
Panic Button
All sound security systems have a failsafe. In this case, the ultimate fail-safe is a literal button you press that alerts the authorities.
We recommend this for most security systems, as it provides you with a quick response in emergencies. They have an easy installation process in most security systems. Guardsman Security will be happy to walk you through this option.
