Every home and business is different and every person has different ideas on how to secure their home and business. With your suggestions and A&C Specialists experience in the security industry, we will come up with the most effective system for your premises. The following is a brief explanation of some of the main components
Hard Wire.
Most New Houses come pre wired for alarm. As the name suggests, this type of security system requires cable to be ran to each of the alarm component system. It is not always feasible to run cables in a building that has been completed, but a site survey would quickly determine if it is possible or not. The components of a hardwire system are basically the same as a wire-free system.
Control Panel:
This is the brain of the system. It detects the signals from the peripheral devices and translates these signals into meaningful responses i.e. alarm mode, tamper mode etc.
Keypad:
The keypad is usually placed by the exit door. When activating or deactivating the alarm, you enter your code on this device.
Internal Siren:
An internal siren is placed in a common area within the premises. It emits a high frequency noise when activated.
External Siren:
The external siren is situated on the outside of the house. As well as being a deterrent in itself, the external siren emits a very loud noise and the built-in strobe flashes continuously.
Shock Sensors:
Small devices which are mounted on a door or window frame. A break-in is detected as soon as the intruder attempts to force, smash, drill, or even saw the protected window, frame or door, which means the alarm, is activated whilst the intruder is still outside.This is the most common way of protecting a house.
Detectors:
These Passive Infrared Detectors (PIR's) work by constantly monitoring the Infrared levels around a room and recognising a change caused by the entry of an intruder. The detector will then inform the panel which will initiate the alarm condition.
Panic Buttons:
These are popular devices which bring many of our customers extra comfort when they are alone on their premises. By pushing the button, the alarms can be programmed to sound, and the Gardai and Keyholders can be alerted. A popular device at the moment is the wireless panic button. This can be carried anywhere in the premises or even outside the premises and still operate the alarms.
