Security Alarm Monitored Or Unmonitored?
Monitored security alarm systems are those where a private company like Guardian Electronics Inc watches your system 24 hours a day, every day, alerting the police if something goes wrong and you cannot be contacted. Unmonitored security alarm systems have on-site sirens and flashing lights that alert your neighbors of a break-in, meaning that you’ll be relying on them to contact police if you aren’t in the office or warehouse. The best security comes from monitored systems, because their vigilance is constant. They typically function in the following way:
1. The system’s sensors are triggered in some way, such as a door opening in the office or warehouse.
2. The system waits 30 to 45 seconds to give the tenant a chance to deactivate the system to prevent false alarms.
3. If the security alarm is not deactivated, the security alarm system sends a message to the monitoring company over telephone lines or by a wireless device.
4. The monitoring company receives the message and verifies the alarm, generally by placing a call to the office or warehouse owner’s mobile phone. If they do not receive the proper passcode or do not receive an answer, the company calls the police.
5. The police respond to the office or warehouse location.
Components of a Warehouse or Commercial Office Security Alarm System
Security Alarm Control panel: All the operations of the alarm system are centered in this panel, including the connections to the central monitoring station, either through a phone line or via cellular/radio means.
Central monitoring station (company): If the system is monitored, and the security alarm is set off, the control panel sends a message here.
Touchpads or Keypads: This is where the system is armed and disarmed. They should be placed near the (office or warehouse) doors so they can be armed on your way out and disarmed after you return. Most work on a passcode system.
Key fobs: Similar to your car lock/unlock fob, this will allow you to arm and disarm your security alarm system from outside the premises without using a passcode.
Sirens: A siren will sound an alert when an security alarm is set off.
Door and window sensors: These set off the security alarm when a door or window is opened. Glass break sensors are also available and recommended.
Motion detectors: Motion detectors are activated by movement within the protected room. There are various styles to meet the individual needs of the office or warehouse owner.
Video monitoring (streaming or CCTV): Surveillance video is an option with most systems at an additional cost. The images can either be sent to the monitoring station (streamed) or captured on site on a Digital Video Recorder (DVR).
Panic buttons: Alert the central station of an emergency situation that requires immediate response by the police. These buttons are also known as a Duress Alarms.

Other Considerations when purchasing a Security Alarm for your office or warehouse.
Even with the advent of wireless security alarm technology, many burglar alarm systems still need a hard telephone line to dial out. Make sure to ask Guardian Electronics Inc exactly how you want the security alarm system to contact us in the event of a security breach. If you are using Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) for your phones and internet, be sure to tell us( the alarm monitoring company), as transmission of security alarm signals over these lines is often unreliable and other steps should be taken to ensure proper reception. If the hard line is still utilized, realize that many burglars know how to cut a telephone line before infiltrating an office or warehouse. However, if the phone line is inaccessible and run underground, the thieves can’t tamper with the telephone line until after they have broken in – which is too late for them. An alternative is to purchase a cellular alarm system, which will not allow thieves to tamper with the transmission of the security alarm signal.
Burglaries are opportunist, they generally watch the office or warehouse before they decide to attack. A Security Alarm, in combination with a yard sign and/or Security Cameras will be enough difficulty to make criminals quit on their intentions and decide for other easy target.
