Security Systems for home and enterprises

By Pat Murphy


Security of grounds and houses has developed during the past 15 years, from an easy alarm system on a house or business to the stage where we can now monitor our alarm, cameras and automatic gates from the touch of a mouse button on our telephones or PCs.

The large scale production of security products has enabled costs to come down to cheaper levels for domestic houses so owners can now afford this level of monitoring as well as owners of commercial premises. The new smaller, neater and better quality products suggest you can install more discrete cameras and gates at your home. Alarm systems have become more trustworthy with less fake activations and diallers can be fitted to contact your mobile phone in the event of activation. Cameras can now be recorded and viewed live 24 hours a day.

The footage is recorded onto hard drive units which just rewrite over when full. The backed up photographs can then be viewed locally up to one or two months later. These recorders became more user-friendly and reliable and no longer involve changing tapes daily. With the arrival of broadband and fixed IP addresses, you now have the ability to study your home or grounds from anywhere in the world through a laptop, PC or smart phone. If your alarm goes off and dials your telephone, you can view your cameras remotely.

Automatic gates are becoming extremely popular and whilst they are important from a security and privacy aspect, they can offer confidence for families with babies. In recent years the safety aspects have been increased to dump trapping and injury concerns. Intercoms, keypads and remote controls are used to manipulate entry to the property.

The arrival of mobile phone technology enables your intercom to contact your phone and permits you to open the gates from anywhere to the planet. Your gates can close automatically or you simply dial the intercom to close them when your caller has left the property. In these instances when burglaries are much more common it's vital to make as many hindrances as possible.
