Alarm systems can be preventative measures in regards to break ins, fires, and other poisonous gas leaks. They allow peace of mind for homeowners as they will detect any immediate issues. Whether you’re looking to upgrade your alarm system, or you’re debating whether or not to invest in one, continue reading to discover 3 reasons why you should always have an alarm system installed in your home.

Security Alarms Prevent Burglar Attacks 

In many cases, it is apparent that having a security alarm installed in your home can actually scare the burglar and stop the attack from happening. As soon as the alarm sounds, the police can be notified and the burglar, in most cases, will run away. Security alarms are extremely important to have as a new home owner, if the location of your home is not in a secured area, or you like having that extra safety net installed. The alarms used by Secure Lock and Alarm have 24-Hour monitoring which includes: burglary detection, video surveillance, and closed-circuit television surveillance. 

Fire Alarms Can Save Lives

There is a significant difference when it comes to fire and smoke alarms, as they each do different things when protecting your home from fire. The general recommendation provided by us is that you should have both ionization and photoelectric fire alarms in your home, alongside a smoke detector monitored by our central station.

Ionization fire alarms are used as a fast response to flamed fires, rather than a slow burning one. On the contrary, photoelectric smoke alarms work better to detect smoldering fires that release those dark smoke clouds that make it difficult to escape. Many people do not realize that there is a difference between fire alarms in general, so it is important to note that there are different alarms for different occasions. 

Constant Peace of Mind

If you’re leaving your house unattended, or you’re gone for long periods of the day at work, having alarm systems installed can allow you to be worry-free. If anything were to happen without your supervision, you would be notified through us as well as a local police department in order to keep the safety and peace at your home.
