We get it. It’s normal to have concerns about the safety and security of your home, when you’re away.
Is it safe and secure? Would a criminal be able to break in? Was the door locked? Have the lights been left on?
It’s why so many Australian decide to give themselves that extra peace of mind with a security system - and most Aussie who want that extra security, opt for an affordable and effective alarm security system.
A 2017-18 study showed about 25% of houses and semi-detached houses had a home alarm system installed. The same study showed about 12% of these homes had a security camera, or a CCTV camera, installed.
Many have put their faith in a home alarm system - but are they really worth it?
Home alarms, also known as intruder alarms, are designed to make a very loud, jarring noise when they’re triggered and an intruder is detected.
They’re generally made up of a control panel which is connected to different types of devices. These include:
Motion detectors: These will detect movement in your home when it’s supposed to be empty, and will go off as a result.
Reed switches: These are magnetic contacts on your doors which are designed to activate when the door is opened by an intruder.
The noise is designed to alert you (if you’re home), alert your neighbours, the police, or simply to spook the intruder.
You can also set up “back-to-base monitoring” which will send an alert to the monitoring centre.
Any alarm set up can be customised, set up and adapted by a professional to suit the needs of the area, and the requirements of the homeowner.
As a security measure, alarm systems are relatively affordable, and can be very effective, which is why they’re the security measure of choice for most Australians who invest in enhancing the safety and security of their home.
Studies suggest that most homes that are broken into don’t have a security alarm.
In fact, Auspost claims that “Several police forces across the country seem to agree that alarm systems decrease a home’s chance of a break-in. In fact, monitored security alarms are the most effective way to combat break-ins. “
In short, an alarm system could help protect your home, and they come with a range of features which can be tailored to suit different budgets.

You can either select
a standard alarm system, or: a “back to base” alarm security system.
Back-to-base alarms (monitored alarms) are intruder alarm systems that communicate with a 24-hour monitoring centre. These monitoring centres are staffed by operators who respond to the signals they get from activated alarm systems.
Then there are variations in the features that come with your system, which we tailor based on your needs.
