Your First Line of Defense

Sensors and alarms strategically installed across a property act as your first line of defense against a potential burglar. When they work properly, most threats won’t make it to the front door—most would-be burglars start running as soon as the lights go on and the alarm starts ringing. But how will your security system respond in the off-chance they don’t? That’s where system integration comes in!

By integrating motion sensors and surveillance cameras as part of an automated security system, you will receive a notification on your smartphone at the first sign of trouble. While the silent alarm notifies the authorities, a remote monitoring team, or both, you will see real-time footage of the burglar’s activities on your screen. 

The Access Control Barrier

What if blaring alarms and flashing lights aren’t enough to deter an intruder? Fortunately, your burglar alarm system includes a solid door and frame, electronic locks, and a smart access control panel for maximum security. Smart access control and electronic locks mean that each and every entrance to your property can be secured remotely at the touch of a button, and a good door and frame mean breaking in becomes monumentally more difficult for a potential burglar. By the time the criminal realizes what’s happening, police would already be on the scene, responding to the automatic alerts sent by your sensors and cameras. 

How About Remote Management?

You may not always be at your business in the middle of an emergency. In fact, most times, you will be away when that instant notification arrives, which is why an easy-to-use mobile app should be part of your new alarm system. It is possible that an animal triggered a sensor, so the warning can be swiftly discarded. This could be done from anywhere in the world, so if a real emergency occurs, you’d be ready for it no matter what.
