Which alarm system is right for me?
The most popular types of commercial alarm systems include:
Wireless intruder alarms
This DIY-style system relies on batteries and uses sensors that communicate with a central control panel via radio signals.
We don’t generally recommend these intruder alarm systems for businesses as the risks can be just too high.
A wired alarm system
These intruder alarms use sensors and a control panel but are connected with wires and rely on the mains electricity, cutting out issues with batteries.
These alarm systems are a much better option and can interact well with additional features like commercial CCTV systems, immediate response, and motion detectors, offering real peace of mind for commercial premises of all sizes.
Monitored intruder alarm systems
If alarm monitoring services are important to your business, monitored commercial alarm systems are considered the gold standard.
These security systems rely on a wired system and involve a subscription service for live monitoring. But, they can cut the risks and expense of false alarms and offer maximum protection, which some businesses prefer.
