Alarm Systems
The average person contemplating the purchase of an alarm
system for their home usually finds a wilderness awaiting them. Often
the thought of an alarm system is off putting to people. The 'fear'
of alarm systems is usually unwarranted. The operation of these devices
is no more complicated than setting the timer on a domestic video
recorder.
When a decision is being made as to whether to install a system or
not, careful consideration must be given to the following points:
 How much value
is placed on the property within the home?
How much importance
is placed on keeping unauthorised persons out of the
home?
What other
security measures have been taken prior to considering the
installation of the alarm?
The first two considerations are obvious. Most people place a
great deal of value, either monetary or sentimental, on the property
in their homes and there are very few people who would not be greatly
disturbed by an intruder invading their privacy.
The third point is well worth considering. It is good security sense
to employ as many as possible of the proven, effective measures
such as double cylinder deadlocks, window locks and security lighting
prior to the installation of an alarm.
The important rule to remember is:
AN ALARM SYSTEM WILL TELL YOU IF AN OFFENDER HAS BROKEN IN, PHYSICAL
SECURITY HELPS KEEP THEM OUT IN THE FIRST PLACE
Prevention is far better than cure, therefore any person considering
an alarm is advised to lock up first.
