Home security measures are becoming an every day necessity, from preventing people entering the property with electric gates, roller doors and intercom systems to monitoring devices like CCTV cameras, security lights, alarms and sensors.
Our experienced electricians are not only capable of installing any kind of security devices you may have, but we can assist you in finding the best locations to mount them to get the most form your security system.
Research shows that outdoor / external lighting plays a large part in the safety and security of your home. Installing exterior lighting allows you to easily and safely monitor what's happening outside and around your home. If you happen to see sudden movements, or hear an unsettling noise, you can immediately investigate it with a well-lit outdoor area.
Security lighting doesn't have to be elaborate or extensive. Some simple, strategically placed lighting can work very effectively in safe- guarding your home.
If you have an alarm in your home, it is recommended that you advertise it with a sign on the front door or on the gates that lead to the property. This is because criminals are more likely to pick a home that doesn’t have an alarm installed over one that does. This was discovered after a series of interviews with reformed burglars. This means that an alarm might not only be able to prevent an intruder from fulfilling their plans once they have entered your property, but is actually a deterrant to them entering your home in the first place.
There are hundreds of alarm manufacturers all offering different features for their alarm systems. The most important part of your alarm system will not be what fancy features your panel is capable of, but simply how it monitors your home environment. Does it allow you to monitor for fire, flooding, break-ins, movement or infra-red heat signatures? Does it allow you to receive a phone call when triggered? Does it send an alarm to an external source? Can you connect your CCTV system through it and view the feed from your mobile device? Does it have a backup power source? Is it connected through the phone lines?
There are a lot of questions to answer, and perhaps you will require some or all of those features, and perhaps not. At AJ & AJ Electrical we will assist you in finding the correct panel for your needs. We have found that simple is often best. Talk to us today about your security objectives and we find the best solution for your business.
There are many brands and varieties of sensors and detectors on the market. Some are wireless and battery operated, while others are hard wired in. There are a multitide of sensors and detectors to monitor everything from windows opening, to glass breaking, movement, water flooding, fire, smoke and infra-red heat detection. Some of these detectors can even see through your walls, which makes it harder for criminals to accomplish their goals undetected.
At AJ & AJ Electrical our experienced technicians can assit you in not only installing your detectors but in finding the best locations for them to achieve your objectives. Call us today to find out more.
There are many kinds of security cameras on the market. Some have night vision capabilities, wide angle lenses, high definition, Wi-Fi and many more features. Make sure you choose the correct camera for each position you wish to monitor. Generally you will not need to have a waterproof camera inside the house for instance. Some will be able to be viewed directly on your phone or other portable devices so you can check on your property at any time with ease. Most cameras however, are sold as part of a complete security system and you will need to ensure that any additional cameras you install are compatible with your digital recording system.
Your first line of defence in any property is keeping intruders and unwanted visitors outside the gates. Quite often this first line of defence is merely a deterrent as most fences are scalable. However, it has been proven that simply having a closed gate is a much greater deterrent than no gate at all and having a locked gate with an intercom is a lot more effective again.
One small issue with security measures is the extra effort the home owner has to go through in order to maintain that security. Things like having to go to the gate to let people in or closing garage door and vehicle accesses. With modern security measures all these annoyances are a thing of the past. All your gates and doors can be upgraded to be fully automated. Intercoms can have cameras fitted and power locks installed allowing access at the press of a button.
If you have purchased your own security system and require a third party to install them, our certified electricians are able to install all these devices and more. We will arrive promptly, ascertain your requirements, give you a time frame for completion and finalise your security upgrade within that time frame.
