One of many reasons our installations are more secure

8/21/2014

While everyone likes to talk about how their product or service is better, here is one that is important to us because it actually makes your home or business more secure. All of our systems are installed with your keypad in an accessible location, the metal enclosed control panel or "brains" of the system in another location, and the siren is also separate. Think of this as in a computer setup. The computer tower is the brains where the keyboard that connects to it is the keypad and the speakers are the siren. Although this setup is much more labor intensive to install, we do this to lower the "attack surface". What this means is you have fewer security risks because even if someone disabled or removed the keypad or siren, the alarm would still function and would be able to communicate to us. Many companies, especially the national ones, are now installing "system in a box" alarm systems. The whole system is in one plastic box on your wall. While this greatly reduces labor and equipment costs from a company perspective, your system is much more vulnerable to being disabled. Therefore, we will never compromise your security by installing this type of alarm system.

Your alarm system control panel, backup power supply, and communication connections should be in a metal enclosure such as this and mounted to a wall.
