Is it time for a new home alarm system? You might think not, like the customer in this blog. However before dismissing the idea, consider how much a new home alarm system could do for you.
“I didn’t realise a new home alarm system could do so much!”
This week, we’ve been chatting with a customer who moved into their house in the early nineties. When they moved in, it had a Keybury home alarm system installed. That same system was still protecting their house! It’s still working well, and this customer switches it on every single night and every times she goes out. She’s not the only one still benefitting from a very old but still working Keybury alarm system. Well maintained systems do last and last and last.
This customer was mulling over their security after a recent event made her consider if she needed to put anything more in place. After speaking with our surveyor she said “I didn’t realise a new home alarm system would do so much!”. With an upgrade to a new Keybury home alarm system and enjoying all the benefits that brings.
Do you know what you can get from a new home alarm system?
Highlight Your New Security
Upgrade your home alarm to highlight your security. A burglar scouting out premises and seeing a very old alarm outside might think you don’t keep up to your home security. A newer looking system is a great deterrent – particularly with our backlit bell boxes. You can upgrade your system to add a backlit bell box at any time.
Smart Idea
Get more from your home alarm system. An upgraded alarm system will give you more than your old system. New systems can be controlled via an app. With the app you can switch the system on and off from your phone. You can also temporarily toggle certain rooms on and off (perfect if you’re pet sitting). It also alerts you when the system is switched on or off and (crucially!) if it activates. If you’re away from home, that notification could be the difference between a foiled burglary and a ransacked house.
Monitoring Options
App monitoring isn’t the only monitoring option available. You could also choose keyholder monitoring which connects to an alarm receiving centre. In this scenario, nominated keyholders are called and alerted to the activation. Monitoring with police response is also available for the ultimate peace of mind.
Home Improvement
Things change. Do you still use all the rooms in your house in the same way you did 30 years ago? Creating a home office or a space for the grandchildren, taking down walls or adding extensions can affect how well your system protects your home. Check your system is providing the right coverage and add pet friendly sensors too.
