Although a burglary can never really be completely prevented, you can definitely take measures to reduce its likelihood.
Some people choose a security system because it gives one a sense of security and control. Other people are required by their insurer to have an alarm system installed because, for example, they have a special collection or many valuables in their home.
Safe living is a sum of different measures.
Starting with organisational measures; making arrangements with each other.
- Lock doors and close windows when you leave home.
- Avoid visible absence; leave a lamp on.
- Make arrangements with neighbours during holiday periods.
Also think about structural measures. These are measures that contribute to the burglar resistance of the outer shell of your home.
- Certified hardware.
- Installation of shutters.
The most well-known form of home security is the alarm system.
The goal in home security is to keep the burglar out. Should he get in anyway, the alarm system's signalling devices activate. A loud alarm, flashing light and transmission to the monitoring station or mobile phone. A silent alarm is also possible.
The presence of a strobe light on the facade also has a strong preventive effect. It shows that a residential property is electronically secured.
Alarm system
An alarm system can be installed either wired or wireless. A combination of both is also possible.
We place the alarm system in the meter box.
The most common components that relay to the alarm system are:
- Magnetic contacts; these detect open positions of windows and doors.
- Motion detectors; these detect movement. These can also be animal-friendly.
- And additionally, smoke detectors, water detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, vibration contacts.
