Common Types of Alarm Monitoring
The most common types of alarm monitoring are burglary and intrusion alarm monitoring, lone worker, hold-up and duress monitoring and environmental and plant alarms. However if you have something else in mind, chances are we will be able to accommodate it with a customised alarm monitoring response plan. Burglary and intrusion alarm monitoring Burglary and intrusions alarms are the most commonly monitored alarm types. These will enable appropriate response from our monitoring centre when an intruder is detected at your premises, which can help mitigate the risk of loss of assets and damage to your property. Intrusion events are typically detected by motion sensors, contact switches on your doors and windows or can be triggered by breaking glass or vibration when an intruder attempts to gain entry to your premises. Lone worker, hold-up and duress Lone worker, hold up and duress alarms enable an appropriate response from our monitoring centre when an individual feels threatened, is attacked or suffers an injury or medical incident. This enables a response that will provide prompt assistance to the individual. These events are typically initiated by under counter mounted hold-up buttons, wearable duress buttons, 3G mobile personal emergency devices and vehicle mounted satellite tracking systems. Environmental and plant alarms Environmental and plant alarms may help reduce property and asset damage due to failure of critical systems and will enable a tailored response from our monitoring centre. Events detected include refrigeration and air conditioning plant failure, smoke, heat and flood detectors.
