Security Systems & Protection

An electronic security device can monitor an entry point or raise an alert when a sensor detects movement.

Alarm systems allow you to sleep soundly at night knowing that any intruder will be detected long before they can cause any harm. Even simple additions like motion-activated porch lights can help keep you informed about what’s happening outside your home.

CCTV allows you to view in real-time any activity inside or outside your home, and save the footage for later use if required. These are one of the most common forms of home security.  

Door entry systems pair communication with controlled access, helping occupants identify visitors before opening the door. Security systems for doors can pair an intercom with controlled access, helping occupants identify visitors before entry.

Wireless access control systems manage entry electronically without requiring a physical key.

Electronics and automation systems can serve multiple purposes. For instance, motion sensors can be linked to alarms inside the house, or as a safety measure by having them turn on a light near the front porch so you don’t trip on the stairs.

A smart security system can link motion sensors to an alarm, allowing the devices to respond together.

Alarms can be connected to motion sensors, infrared sensors or triggered manually. Once activated, alarms can either alert you and your neighbours to suspicious activity or even directly contact your security company.

A security system panel gives occupants a central point for arming an alarm and checking connected sensors.

Intercoms offer a convenient means of communication, allowing people in different locations to converse effortlessly.

Home protection systems are a matter of safety, it’s important that they work correctly, first time and every time. Higher quality security systems are made of stronger materials and tested to a more rigorous standard, so they can withstand more wear and tear and last longer before needing maintenance.

High quality security cameras can see further, have higher resolution, and can record for longer. Premium alarm systems are connected directly to a security team who can check on your property for you, and top range intercoms can provide both audio and visual contact.

Choosing a security system depends on how likely you think you are to need it. If you’re concerned about burglars or other unsavoury types around the neighbourhood, it’s a good idea to install motion detectors and alarm systems. If you’re only worried about package thieves, you might opt for a simple security camera.

What matters is that you feel safe at night, and confident that the things you care about remain protected while you are away. The level of security system you need to feel this way can vary hugely depending on the person and situation.
