Can you afford not to secure your home?
The cost of replacing valuable and treasured items are usually the last thing on any homeowners mind as are the implications of a break-in or the need for a burglar alarm until it's too late.
The truth is that a burglary doesn’t just cause financial loss and disruption, there is always the emotional impact it creates too.
According to Government statistics a home is five times more likely to be burgled if it has no security measures in place than if it has basic measures in place like adequate door and window locks.
Panoramic Fire and Security advice is to take the precaution of installing one of our burglar alarms or CCTV systems, providing protection for your home and valuables and also peace of mind.
Burglar Alarm Types
Visible burglar alarms make potential intruders think twice. They not only act as a deterrent, but will also provide a warning that an intrusion is taking place.
Bells Only systems: A bells-only burglar alarm will not give you an automatic police response; the police will only act if an unlawful entry has been reported by a 999 call.
Monitored systems: Alarms that are connected to a monitoring service are the best option. The system is connected to an alarm receiving centre (ARC), where activation signals are sent via the control panel. Activations received at the ARC ensure that the police are contacted on your behalf in the event of a confirmed signal. (Signals are filtered for false activations avoiding the risk of losing police response to your alarm)
