The security market has exploded with different options and solutions in recent years, spanning systems for home and domestic use as well as commercial sites and properties.
One such option is a monitored alarm system and package, which encompasses not just the burglar alarm itself but a comprehensive service to ensure this alarm is monitored 24/7. The reason behind this level of monitoring is simple. While having an alarm fixed to a premises alerts residents to a break-in, and acts as a form of deterrent for potential burglars, when dealing with commercial premises the chances of someone being there to respond at all hours is low.
A monitored alarm service means someone is ready to respond to your burglar alarm in Essex at all hours.
Let’s take a closer look at the service package and what it includes…
Common Uses of a Monitored Alarm System
A monitored alarm package tends to be favoured by commercial clients with large premises, that require round-the-clock monitoring during open and closed hours.
Not only are alarms and cameras monitored remotely via an Alarm Receiving Centre, but they are combined with other services to keep premises and properties protected. These include police callout, keyholder response units, guard patrols, and mobile alerts for registered individuals – all of which ensure an appropriate response to a break-in or alert.
It’s particularly important to note that this isn’t just a nice-to-have for commercial premises and businesses. In fact, for many, a monitored alarm system and package is required for their insurance.
How This System Differs from Other CCTV Set Ups
The monitored alarm system differs from other CCTV setups in how it is managed. It combines the effectiveness of CCTV cameras and sensitive burglar alarms with a level of intervention that ensures there is always an appropriate response on hand.
Premises that benefit from this service can leave their property at the end of the day, safe in the knowledge that any criminal activity will be caught on camera and will trigger a response – connected to their registered keyholder, to onsite guards, or to a police response.
The Benefits of Professional Security Solutions
All things considered professional security solutions are employed to keep premises free from break-ins. Acting as both a deterrent to would-be burglars and a means of evidence that can help to identify a criminal, professional solutions combine camera systems with alarms so that clients are alerted to a break-in while also capturing the criminals on camera.
