Is a wireless alarm system reliable?
A fair question. Many people think that a wireless alarm system is not reliable. It is often said that the signal can be disrupted, batteries run out quickly or that a false message or malfunction is often caused.
You will not find a good and reliable alarm system at a hardware store. These types of systems are asking for problems in terms of malfunctions or false alarms.
The intrusion systems of Jablotron and Visonic that we offer are all reliable systems that are recognized by the security industry and insurance companies as being of high quality and high-quality product.
It is not without reason that these systems are certified by the NCP. (National Center for Prevention). An alarm system that has a strict NCP certification means that you are dealing with a reliable and good system when it is installed by a skilled person.
In addition, our many years of warranty on these burglary systems guarantees the confidence placed in it.
Some myths about wireless alarms
1. The wireless signal is easy to disrupt Our alarm systems work on 868.95 Mhz where each wireless component has its own (unique) digital coding with the central unit, so outside disturbances have no chance to get. Compare it with DECT telephones, which cannot be tapped due to their unique code. In addition, our systems have a jam detection that detects any attempts at external disruption. 2. Batteries do not last long and are expensive The batteries supplied with our systems last at least 3 to 5 years with normal use. All batteries are Lithium and these types of batteries are known for their long lifespan. If a battery is in danger of becoming empty, the burglary system will indicate this well in advance by reporting that the battery voltage is low. You then still have plenty of time to replace it with a new one. Nowadays, all types and sizes of Lithium batteries are available at a competitive price. (see our webshop under batteries) If you spread the purchase costs over the number of years they last, then this is a minimal investment. 3. A wireless alarm system is expensive Our alarm systems are competitively priced and can be configured to your exact level yourself. All components come with the corresponding Lithium batteries so you don't have to worry about this. A wired system often involves expensive cabling costs, unlike a wireless system, which can often be installed and delivered in one day. 4.
