Burglar alarms are an important part of your security system as they detect intruders and alert you of their presence. These hi-tech installations are easily accessible from your devices, so you can keep an eye on your home or business remotely. Burglar alarms can be installed almost anywhere but there are a few vulnerable spots that you should be able to monitor.
In this blog, we discuss some of the best locations to install burglar alarms.
Main entrances
Most of the time intruders will enter through the main door so always have an alarm and video setup there. This location will also allow you to monitor any suspicious activity in the area such as people scoping out your property or employees re-entering the building after working hours. Once the front door has been opened you will receive an alert of the intrusion so you can act quickly.
Back and side entrances
If you have a side door or back entrance don’t forget about monitoring this area as they could be vulnerable spots. Side alleyways or gardens may have blind spots where intruders can hide or break-in, but with an alarm and video setup, you can see who’s been there and how they’ve got in. A discreetly hidden camera and an alarm will catch them in the act and could prevent them from continuing with the robbery.
Inside the property
If somebody does break-in to your home or business premises you need to be able to see exactly what they’ve taken, and of course who it is. Having evidence of the intrusion can be used as evidence and sent to the police. In business, even if you haven’t experienced a break-in, having cameras inside the building means you can look out for any unusual behaviour among your staff.
