Why choose a monitored alarm over a self-monitored one?

A monitored system provides peace of mind that a standard burglar alarm cannot. In the event of a triggered alarm, professional security staff can verify the breach, contact emergency services, or dispatch guards, ensuring your property is protected even when you are unavailable.

Q: Which burglar alarm system is best?

The "best" alarm system depends on your needs, but a monitored alarm system is superior to self-monitored systems. Monitored alarms ensure that certified security staff are overseeing alerts 24/7, providing professional intervention in an emergency, whereas self-monitored systems leave you reliant on your own availability to respond to alerts.

A self-monitored system will cost less, but leaves you vulnerable to being unavailable to answer alerts on your alarm.

A monitored alarm system means there are always professional, certified security staff monitoring alerts from your alarm, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

While monitored alarms do come at a cost, they provide peace of mind that simply cannot be achieved with a regular burglar alarm.
