Government
statistics have shown that the majority of attempted burglaries
carried out on homes fitted with burglar
alarms are unsuccessful.
This suggests that burglar alarms are a useful deterrent for
prospective criminals, but before you rush out and buy a brand
new alarm system follow a few of our tips on alarms for your
home.
The
British Security Industry Association recommends that householders
use a professional alarm installation company registered with
a police recognised "alarms inspectorate" - so ask to see
a company's registration documents. ICU are inspected by the
following
SSAIB
Security
Systems and Alarms Inspection Board.
There
are a few different types of alarm system. The first, is the
traditional "bells only" when professionally fitted by us
these alarms cost from £399.00 to install plus an optional
£6.25 per month for maintenance.
The
second and increasingly more popular option is a "monitored
alarm" Monitored
alarms are connected to an "alarm receiving centre" where
someone will alert the police if an intruder is detected.
You can expect to pay from £479.00 to have the
alarm installed but there is an additional cost for the monitoring
which starts from £12.50 per month for monitoring
and maintenance.
The
big difference between bells-only alarms and monitored burglar
alarms is police response. You need to know that the police
will not respond to bells only alarms unless they receive
confirmation from you, your family, or someone else nearby,
that there is a burglary in progress. For information on our Wireless Alarms please visit
