What is a Wireless Alarm System?

A wireless alarm system requires no wiring to be installed between the main control panel and the peripheral sensors or detectors. The advantage of a wireless alarm system is that it is easy to install, and can be easily removed and taken with you should you need to move home. With a wireless system you don’t have to go through the hassle of drilling holes and running wires around your property.

How do Wireless Alarm Systems work?

Wireless alarm systems have advanced significantly in the last five years providing a high level of reliability. Wireless alarms communicate back to the main control panel by radio transmission signals instead of wiring, and are powered by long- life lithium batteries with a life span of 3-5 years before they need replacing. Wireless alarm sensors run on batteries. So even if the phone, power and Internet connections are down, your Wireless Home Security System will continue to monitor and protect your property.

What are the benefits of Wireless Security Systems?

• Wireless Security Systems can be installed easily and quickly.

• They also offer the perfect solution for night time security when you need total protection of your external perimeter while still enjoying the freedom of being able to move around inside with the movement sensors turned .
• A wireless system is portable, which means you can pick it up and take it with you if you need to move your home or office

How does a Wireless Security System protect my family and property?

By adding the wireless camera option you can also view your home through the internet no matter where you are at the time.

Is a Wireless Home Security System more reliable than a Traditional System?

Recent developments using the latest state-of-the art technology means wireless home security systems are much more reliable than a traditional hardwired system. This technology automatically checks that each wireless device is working by checking for a test signal every 20 minutes.

The system also has a watchdog circuitry that will detect any foreign or threatening radio signal and alert you to any problems. You’ll quickly know when a device has been tampered with; if there is low battery signal; any radio jamming or interference, or an electrical mains failure.

The system can call up to four mobile numbers and will actually speak to you to report a fire or burglary. This will save you hundreds of dollars a year on back to base monitoring.

Even if the phone line is cut, all alarm alerts will be able to reach the central station or even your mobile phone using a backup GSM sim card modem that can be added to the system as an optional accessory

Do I have to sign a long-term contract?

There are many companies out there that will give you "free" equipment, if you're nice enough to sign up for a long, expensive contract. If you do this, you may save a few dollars on equipment, but you'll be at the mercy of one company and will be paying for the equipment included in the monitoring fees. At Sentry Security, we believe you should have a choice between self monitoring or back to base without committing to any ongoing contract at all. You can even use our back to base option for a short term duration or temporary basis if you are travelling abroad and require a response service.
