Protection Tips
At Safe-Tech Alarm Systems we want to help prevent your home or business from being burglarized. Here are some helpful tips that can provide you and your family with some peace of mind.
Doors »
Since most burglaries occur through a door, start with a good dead bolt lock.
But recognize that’s not enough. The frame, door and lock must work together to resist physical attack. For example, a strong lock is not effective, if the frame is not reinforced around the striking plate. Without reinforcing, the lock it can be pried open by bending the frame, or the door can be simply kicked in.
Remember a burglar isn’t concerned about damage and will be much more physical than you will be when you are testing your doors.
Flood Lights »
Outdoor motion flood light sensors should be used to cover the outside perimeter of any house, especially windows that are next to bushes or trees that are particularly vulnerable because they shield an intruder while trying to break-in.
Fire Prevention »
- Don't overload your electrical circuits.
(One of the main causes of fires.)
- Keep matches and lighters out of the reach of children.
- Don't smoke in bed.
- Don't accumulate oil or grease soaked rags.
- Keep combustibles far from grease sources.
- Use a fire detection and/or smoke detection system in your home.
Prevent False Alarms »
Instruct all users on proper operation of your alarm system.
Give them hands-on practice, but first call us to let us know you're testing the alarm system. Make sure your system is programmed with a Cancel Code for false alarms!...Or have your dealer add this feature for you. Instruct all users to disarm the alarm system as soon as they cause a false alarm. If you don't have a siren on your system, have one installed so that users will be aware when they've set off a false alarm and can take action to ensure that police are not dispatched. Ensure that all users have a confidential pass-code to properly identify themselves.
Make sure you notify Safe-Tech Alarms of all pass-codes you want us to accept, or any you want us to delete.
