How does an
Intruder Alarm work?

Intruder alarm systems (or burglar alarms) are electrical systems connected to a property with contacts & sensors.

They can detect the opening of entry points like doors, and windows and movement around the property with sensors. A loud alarm is then produced to alert those nearby and those off-site, with access to the burglar alarm system of unauthorised entry to the property.

Importance of
Inturder Alarms

Intruder alarms are essential in protecing homes & businesses from unauthorised entry. They keep belongings, personal information and documents safe from theft and uauthorised individuals.

What is the best Intruder
Alarm System?

Each type of intruder alarm system has its advantages; it depends on your property and needs.

  • Wired systems are reliable and easy use.
  • Wireless systems are flexible and accessible with a high level of security.
  • Hybrid systems provide the reliability of wired systems, and the flexible, easy installation of a wireless system. They are mostly useful for commercial intruder alarm systems in hard-to-reach sensor areas in large properties, where easy parts of the system can be wired and difficult to reach detectors can be fitted wirelessly.

What three types of intruder
alarms can be used
in a security system?

The three types of intruder alarms are wired, wireless & hybrid systems. In a wired system, everything is wired back to the control panel, whereas a wireless system reports back to the main control panel via radio. A hybrid system can be part wired & part wireless.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best type of intruder alarm system, wired, wireless or hybrid?

The best intruder alarm system depends on the property; wired systems are reliable and simple, wireless systems are flexible and quick to install, and hybrid systems combine both, which is often ideal for larger commercial properties with hard-to-reach areas.
