Wireless Monitoring For Total Residential Protection

Posted in Home Security

One of the best things about current home security products is that fire alarms and burglar alarms can let your alarm provider and the police know if there’s any trouble in your home. However if the intruders or the flames have cut your telephone lines then there’s a problem. With traditional alarm systems it’s not been possible for home owners to feel totally secure with their security protection.

Plus, what if you don’t use a land line normally? This is a situation more and more folks find themselves in, after all, with advances in mobile phone technology and cheap ways to make calls over it such as VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) it means than families find themselves with the unwanted overhead of a land line just to maintain their alarm system.

If that all seems a little impractical and may be a touch less safe than it could be – then the good news is that you don’t have to rely on a land line to protect you and your loved ones any more. A wireless security system adds additional protection without the need for a land line.

Wireless monitoring for residential homes works by installing a wireless monitoring system in your residence which, in the event that your alarm is triggered, sends out a message over the cellular system to your security provider’s monitoring station ensuring prompt response from the emergency services.

If you like your land line or want to add another layer of protection, the wireless monitoring system can act as a redundancy solution for when the phone lines are down, have been tampered with or if you or any of your family is in a difficult situation such as being held hostage.
