Burglar systems (took the plunge)

Post by madman4570 »

With all the advancements in technology especially as of late----(I finally went with a Professional Burg/Cam system.
Checked around to fine the best local company that does the stores/banks/schools etc.)
Went both hard line/cellular combo-----so it cannot be halted. I was very impressed that also even with hard line they now have the technology if any wire is cut----------------it still trips(but also went with cellular,just in case)

The security cam system is like what is used in the Stores/Banks/Schools. Unreal-----and you can be notified from anywhere in the country(world :lol:)for intrusion.

I picked the highest output (45 watt)Siren available that is installed WAY UP HIGH-----and sounds like the Fire Dept siren on steroids.
Got dual Key Fobs----and it can be armed/disarmed from 400ft away(cool if you start down driveway and think ???)did I arm it, just hit
(ARM)button.
It has -----say the wife is coming up driveway something is really weird-----she can hit the Fob to send 911 silent or hit tab for 911(and with LOUD outside Alarm) even if somehow though not exposed the wire to alarm is cut---------------------------It has a 3 day battery backup that trips it! :wink: plus they gotta scale a 30ft non-climbable peak.(can't be touched from roof)---they actually used a elevation bucket to install it.

Best investment I ever made.--------System I went with you buy your stuff(2 year warrantyon everything )not cheap, they service on site same day and did I say that Siren is really LOUD------------------------Holy Cow(people living couple miles away gonna think its a tornado siren) :D

When they guys came up to install it my 122lb pooch met them on his double layered chain at leash end(snorting/kicking sod up with all four feet/actually having snot come out his nose(and mouth with grass clippings showing) :lol:
Normally not hardly ever chained up, but had to have working area all secure from doggy!
The guys said------------------------------Sir,you don't need no alarm system. :shock:

Any of you all put in one?????????? What type ???????????

It is more effective if you feed them some red jello before company arrives... :twisted:

I've had one for years. Very basic but between the alarm and the dogs the rat -------s skipped my house and hit the neighbors.

Best part is the smoke alarm that feeds straight to the fire station. I live in a small town that has vol. firefighters.
the faster the signal the better chance you have. However the one time it did go off (from an overheated oven)
there were 9 guys in my front yard without a hose to be found. It was about 6 pm and they were all on there way home
from their various jobs and went straight to the scene. I asked the Chief if he wanted to use the hose around back.
Got a good laugh. :lol:

We have a good system, but I opted out of the interior cameras - I did not want cameras inside my home that someone else has access to.

Our system has a heat sensor (and smoke detectors), so if the temperature drops, we get alerted. We had a breaker that would trip in the last place we were in and a couple times the heat shut down while we were out of state in the winter. That alarm system saved us a bunch of money . . .
