When a person has had their property broken into you don’t need to tell them that they need an alarm system. Normally, they don’t hesitate, and without delay they will contact a company that will set up an alarm system.
Many systems have silent alarms and the company you’ve hired calls your contact person to see if someone inadvertently set off the alarm. If the alarm company gets no reply they then inform the local police department. When the police arrive at your place of business, they demand to see identification of the person who set off the alarm.
However alarm companies do more than keep criminals away from your property. They also know when other emergencies arise, like a fire, and they will contact the fire department. Many also have a panic button similar to those in banks when problems exist, and when someone hits the panic button, they find out why, then call the authorities.
Like anything else, you need to check out alarm companies. See how long they’ve been in business, are they members of the Better Business Bureau? Check with their competitors, and compare their prices, and make sure they live up to their promises. Then check their references, and a good company will definitely have some.
The alarm company will come to your home or business and set up sensors in sensitive areas. When those are in place, they will be able to tell if a window or door has been opened and the sensors alert the company. They also have motion detectors in case someone has entered through other means than by a window or a door.
For instance someone could come down through the roof, or someone could hide in the business until everyone leaves then come out to do their dirty work. Another means the alarm companies use to maintain your properties, they may set up cameras that work only when someone comes into the cameras scope of vision. The motion caught by the cameras then alert the alarm company who then call the police.
Some alarm companies also deal with local locksmiths to help maintain the security of your property. The locksmith will help when a lock has been broken by fixing or replacing the lock with new keys. The two work hand in hand to secure your property.
No one could protect their own property 24/7, and today’s alarm companies strive to do just that by keeping people in place and with the help of a digital alarm will know instantly when others approach.
