Intrusion

A security alarm system is designed to detect intrusion -- unauthorised entry into a building or area -- protecting against burglary, property damage and personal safety.

Intrusion alarm systems are designed to detect unauthorised entry into a building or area. These systems protect against burglary, property damage and personal safety threats.

An intrusion system typically includes sensors for doors and windows, motion detectors, and other detection devices connected to a central control panel. When an intrusion is detected, the system can trigger alarms, send notifications to security personnel, and potentially contact emergency services.

What to consider

  • Types of sensors - door contacts, motion detectors, glass break sensors, and environmental sensors
  • System reliability and false alarm rates - balance sensitivity with minimising unnecessary alerts
  • Integration with other security systems - ensure compatibility with CCTV and access control
  • Monitoring service options - choose between self-monitoring or professional monitoring services
  • Power backup capability - ensure system remains functional during power outages
