Burglar alarms - Home Security alarm systems

Advanced Systems

Statistics demonstrate that simply fitting simple security devices like Mortice locks and Window locks dramatically reduce the chances of your home being burgled.  If you have the money however, there are a number of advanced products available in the marketplace.  CCTV cameras, web based products, electronic gates plus an array of other sophisticated products are all at hand to help combat burglars.

CCTV
A CCTV unit can record all the going ons around your home and help deter as well as identifying a burglar.  With a CCTV system you can keep an eye on your kids playing outside, or see who is at the door. These systems range from £400 to £15,000 depending on the features of the unit and the size of the property.

Steel Doors
Reinforced steel doors will prevent a potential burglar from kicking your door open.
A camera surveillance setup could cost a homeowner anywhere between £500 and £10,000, depending on the size of the property and the features included. Some hardy steel doors to make think twice about kicking their way in will cost anywhere from £2,000.

Electronic Gates
Electronic Gates are designed for large properties and cost up to £12,000 so they are not for your average homeowner.  With an electronic gate you can determine who enters your whole property not just who enters your house.

Web Cams
Web cams are similar to CCTV units but are connected to your pc and the World Wide Web.  Even if the burglar steals your webcam their image is recorded on the internet.  This will help the police catch the burglar and assist you in getting back your stolen property.

The Smokecloak
One of the latest additions to the high end home security market is the Smokecloak.  Just like something out of a popular spy movie, this device generates dense fog when the alarm system has been triggered by an intruder.  The fog makes it impossible for a burglar to see anything to steal as well as finding it hard to escape the crime scene.
