Intruder alarms
I`ll never forget bonfire night in 1984 as we returned home for the evening to find that the family home had been burgled. Mum and dad were visibly shaken as you would expect and even though I was only in my early teens, I still remember that feeling of anger and disgust at the thieves. Back then it wasn`t as common to see intruder alarms on private houses but mum and dad had one fitted shortly afterwards. Sadly, most houses have intruder alarms fitted these days as they try to defend themselves from unwanted attention. The modern systems are far more advanced then those of old and they can send text messages to your phone if they detect any sign of intrusion. These systems will ring the police on the customer`s behalf and they can direct any cctv cameras that are fitted to the areas of the break in. Alarm companies can provide top of the range intruder alarms and they come at prices that are cheaper than you might think. It`s a horrible feeling coming home to find that you have been burgled. You can cut down on the chances of this happening by making sure that a modern alarm system is at work whilst you are away.
CCTV security systems
It`s a sad state of affairs but we have to invest in items like burglar alarms and cctv security systems if we want to look after our property. The days of not having any security measures in place have long since gone: now it`s a case of installing such measures as a matter of precaution. The modern cctv systems are far more refined than they used to be and the images captured on them are truly amazing. Link them up to video or dvd recorders and you can capture any wrongdoings to be used as evidence later on. Businesses have been installing the systems for a number of years now and private homes have also started to have the equipment installed. You just never know when the cameras might come in handy and you`ll call on their services in the future. There are a number of different cctv security systems that can be fitted from traditional types of cameras to covert items that can be used for surveillance purposes. It might sound a bit MI5-like but covert cameras are brilliant for catching out rogue members of staff that might be up to no good. It`s a sad state of affairs but cctv security systems are needed in the ongoing fight against crime
CCTV installation
You can`t afford not to have cctv systems fitted these days if you own business premises. Leave them unwatched at your peril whilst you are away and thieves will have a great time clearing out anything that is valuable. Modern cctv systems provide you with detailed images of intruders that can be recorded to use at a later date. Useful features such as vehicle recognition, infra-reds and a vast choice of cameras can be incorporated within any type of cctv installation. It`s not just the outside of buildings that can put the cctv to good use either because in certain circumstances it can be required indoors as well. Shops can use this type of technology to deter shoplifters whilst companies can use covert cameras if they think that one of their employees is up to no good. Think about it from a thieves point of view; they`d much rather break into a premises that didn`t have a cctv installation than one that did. If you think that you can get away with not having a cctv system working at your business premises then good luck to you. The sensible firms make sure they have effective systems in place and the consequences of failing to do so can be severe. With prices of a cctv installation starting very reasonably it seems foolish not to take advantage of this type of technology
