Choosing an alarm system.

There are four basic system types to choose from,

DIY System systems are available from hardware and DIY superstores, but do make sure that the system you are considering conforms to British Standard specification BS 6707.

Bells only system, this type of system sounds a bell or siren to attract the attention of neighbours, or passers by and deter the would be burglar. It should always be fitted to British Standard specification BS 4737.

Auto-dialler system this will, on activation of your alarm, ring pre-programmed numbers to inform keyholders or neighbours of the activation.

Monitored system is the same as the bells only system except that instead of a bell or siren attracting the attention of neighbours a remote signalling device automatically informs a central monitoring station that your alarm has been activated. This type of system must always be fitted to British Standard specification BS 4737 and comply with the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) policy.
