As a stand-alone feature or part of an integrated security solution, intrusion detection systems (commonly known as alarm systems) provide a crucial first line of defense against potential intruders. These systems enhance existing physical security measures, acting as a deterrent by drawing attention to unauthorized activities and increasing the likelihood of apprehending intruders.
Intrusion detection systems utilize door contacts, glass break sensors, and/or motion detectors to secure your property. Intruders are detected immediately upon, or even before, entry into the premises. Once detected, a signal is sent to the central alarm station, which responds according to the customer’s predefined instructions.
A comprehensive security system starts with a thorough Security Assessment of your premises. This assessment includes evaluating the property boundaries, identifying potential entry points and vulnerabilities, and addressing other areas of concern. An experienced security professional can help uncover potential risks and recommend appropriate solutions.
