Intruder Detection

Responding to false alarms at business premises cost the police thousands of man hours a year. Police forces now respond only to alarm activations where there is collaborating confirmation of a break-in from either an eye-witness or an accredited alarm receiving centre.

Your insurance company may already insist that you have a monitored alarm system like red care GSM shows you are serious in protecting your premises. The monitoring of the alarm is usually via your telephone line and if activated a signal is sent to an accredited 24/7 alarm monitoring centre. On receipt of an alarm the operator at the monitoring centre will call the police on your behalf – guaranteeing you the fastest possible police response available.

Monitored alarms have to be installed by a qualified, accredited alarm installer that has been checked by either the NSI (National Security Inspectorate) or SSAIB (Security Systems and Alarms Inspection Board).

The ultimate objective of any security system is crime prevention, but to often the reality is damage limitation or verification that an unwanted event took place. The good news is that the security industry has become more sophisticated by producing fully integrated systems to combat the growing ingenuity of the intelligent criminal.

Greater flexibility is obtained when using fully integrated systems the openness of architecture and operating systems allow upgrades to be modular and local to where required. Cost savings by security managers through use of standardised hardware and better man-power efficiencies can be gained via the use of multi-site remote working.
