We make security system simple and affordable

Basic burglar alarm system is made up of a control panel, one or more security keypads, magnetic contacts for doors and windows, a siren, a backup battery and wire:

1. WIRELESS DEVICES

Wireless equipment speed installation especially in locations where it is hard to install hardwired devices. Over the past 15 years, wireless technology has had dramatic improvements in interference rejection, stability and battery life. In addition, transmitters have been significantly miniaturized so that they are not obtrusive when located in residential living space.

2. MAIN CONSOLE/CONTROLLER

.....is the "brains" of the security system. Home and office security systems normally have three basic protection areas - the perimeter, interior protection and entry/exit doors. These areas are usually subdivided into "zones." For example, perimeter protection, the first line of defense for a home, might consist of three zones - the basement, the first floor and the garage. There is normally one entry/exit zone - this zone has a delay feature that allows you to enter and exit the premise without setting off the system. Finally, space protection, usually consisting of motion detectors, might consist of two zones - the first floor and the basement. The perimeter, entry/exit and interior sensors are connected to the control panel from their locations around the home/office.

3. MAGNETIC SENSOR / CONTACT

Magnetic Contacts protect doors and windows. It is made of a magnetic sensor and switch. The Magnetic sensor can be attached to a door and the switch to the door frame. When the door opens, separating the two, the switch triggers the alarm.

4. VIBRATING SENSOR

Vibrating sensor operates on the principle of vibration to trigger the alarm system, it is normally installed at window and door gill.

5. GLASS BREAK DETECTORS

Glass break detectors detect the sound of breaking glass and alert the control panel of an intrusion. The protected area extends out approximately 25 feet from the detector.

6.MOTION DETECTORS (SPACE PROTECTION)

Motion Detectors - Passive Infrared (PIR) motion sensor technology provides one of the most reliable and cost effective methods for protecting spaces in the home or office. PIR detectors trip an alarm by sensing changes in infrared energy levels caused when an intruder moves about the protected area. They emit no energy of their own. They merely "see" infrared images.

7. SIRENS/SOUNDERS/STROBE LIGHT

Sirens (Interior and Exterior) alert your family to emergency conditions by sounding an alarm. Exterior sirens are normally mounted in a steel box and located under the eaves. A strobe light is frequently attached to the steel box. During an alarm the pulsating light attracts attention to the alarm.

8. SMOKE AND HEAT DETECTORS

Smoke detectors do their job using one of two technologies, ionization and photo-electronic. Either technology can detect a fast flaming or slow smouldering fire, but response times can vary. Ionization -Ionization detectors respond well to fast-flaming fires, such as paper. Ionization smoke detectors use a slight amount of radioactive material to make the air within a sensing chamber conduct electricity. Combustion particles that enter the chamber interfere with this conductivity and trigger the alarm.

Photoelectric - Photo-electronic detectors are well suited to detecting slow smouldering fires, which are often generated in households. Photoelectric smoke detectors are the so-called "electric eye" detectors that use a light beam and a photocell. When smoke enters the sensing chamber and reflects the light into the photocell, the alarm is triggered. For additional protection, photo-electronic detectors are available with an internal heat sensor which triggers and alarm when the temperature at the detector reaches 135 degrees F.

"Smoke detectors can be installed outside of a kitchen leading to other parts of a property and also outside sleeping areas in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional floor of a property.

9. SECURITY KEYPADS

Security Keypads ( usually one of the accessories for wired system) are usually placed near a door to let you operate your system. The keypad informs those living or using a property of the status of the system (i.e., armed, disarmed, etc.).

10. BATTERIES

Batteries have two major applications in security systems. First, they are used in the control panel to back up the system in the event of power failure. The second is to power wireless devices such as door/window transmitters, passive infrared sensors, smoke detectors, etc.
