Burglar Alarms
|
|
I'm moving home in a month, and because it's in South West london (nearest team AFC Wimbledon @ Kingsmeadow), i need some security advice.
Has anyone got or have knowledge of a burglar alarm that is linked to police response? Most insurance companies seem to ask for this and because i'm massively OCD and also love a gadget i'm keen to get some camera's set up so i can get a bit "smart" with the home tech/security stuff.
All help appreciated.

After 3 broken windows at my shop, i used one of these in the car park at the back where the local yoof used to hang about

The police asked me to remove them, but they did the trick. Perfectly legal (ish)

key pad to your mobile - nothing better than catching a burglar ( stub gun from Italy) if you want one

Strategically positioned trip-wired Japanese hornets' nests. You know it makes sense.

How much money you got?
I used to work for banhams alarms. Not cheap but prob the best home security co in London
Every time the alarm went off it would go to our office and a key guard (me) would turn up and check the property over . reset the alarm and sort any repairs that needed doing
In just under a year I had 2 real ones . one an office in Stratford and one house in Fulham
The rest was all false alarms

I knew someone years ago in the days of the old den who moved to the tenth floor of a tower block in new cross, all the furniture was moved in on the Saturday. When they came back on Sunday night the door had been kicked off its hinges and everything cleared out including curtains and carpets.
Had to have the door and frame steel lined, hinge bolts and multi locks.

Got a 4 and half stone Staffordshire Bull Terrier, he deals with any security issues. Granted, he can't put out fires.

Ball, yes, as I have already posted at least twice.
You give them a script, keyholder details and what other services you want contacted and in what order.
The police will only accept this if it an approved system installed by an approved contractor (used to be nacoss).
After a set number of false alarms the police will refuse to respond to alarm calls.

Aren't they linked to a call centre rather than the Police?

Volley, incorrect as usual.
ADT are a manufacturer and installer of alarm systems, whether they are connected to a remote monitoring service is up to the customer, you can still buy bell only systems from most suppliers/installers.
