When someone mentions home security you probably only think about burglary protection. Security systems are like computers in that they are much less expensive and are of a higher quality than in the past. Also like computers today’s security system will perform a multitude of functions that a few years ago seemed unimaginable. In addition to burglary protection today’s security system can be enhanced with the following features:
Flood and temperature monitors: Your home is protected from faulty appliances, plumbing leaks and floods with a temperature sensor or floor detector.
Carbon monoxide detectors: A carbon monoxide detector can be added to a new or existing system to protect your family from this toxic gas.
Monitored Smoke Detectors: Only monitored smoke detectors can provide a signal to our central station where emergency authorities can be summoned, 24 hours a day, every day. Smoke detectors are always working even if you do not arm your system.
Medical alert: With the press of a button you can notify our central monitoring station if you have an emergency. The emergency pendant (or watch) provides increased independence and peace of mind to an older person or disabled family member.
Outdoor protection: Protect your assets with driveway entry alarms, gate alarms and sensors for your heating and air conditioning system.
Pet friendly alarm systems: Pets up to 100 lbs. can move freely about your home without setting off the alarm.
GSM Cellular Communicator: More and more homeowners are moving away from traditional phone lines to cell phones and VOIP. Add that to the risk of potential phone line failure and your security could be compromised. By adding a GSM communicator to your current system, you can be assured that your alarm signals get through.
Additional keypads and remote panic buttons: You can arm and disarm your entire security system with a small remote button that attaches to your keychain. The remote can also be programmed to work as a panic button should someone suspicious approach as you enter and leave your home.
Cameras: The latest trend in home security provides you an additional layer of protection in your home. Monitor activity in your home and yard with a home camera system. View into your home through an internet connection when you are away.
