Our homes are places where our life’s possessions in the form of various movables or heirlooms are usually placed. Therefore, it is worth knowing how to protect against potential theft. We suggest!

Why invest in a monitoring system?

Many people attach great importance to how their homes are equipped. This is an area where the surrounding design elements count for us in a special way, as well as various types of equipment that make us feel comfortable. In addition to such things, it is very common for us to store precious items in our homes – be it the legacy of our ancestors, or recently acquired jewelry or watches. Some people also choose to store savings in their homes.

Therefore, it is worthwhile to ensure that there is adequate security against possible theft. Surveillance and an alarm system will make us feel much safer, and therefore comfortable, in our homes. It is a well-known fact that the calmer we feel, the easier it is to relax, as well as to rest, which is especially important when it comes to the home.

What kind of monitoring to choose?

There are many aspects to guide the choice of monitoring. For example, among the monitoring systems available on the market, there are wired and wireless ones. It is believed that it is best to go for those that are built on the basis of a wired network. They are characterized by low failure rate and low susceptibility to various types of interference. The signal of wireless monitoring is extremely easy to intercept or interfere with, which speaks against it.

In the case of monitoring, we also talk about analog HD-CVI technology, as well as digital IP technology. The first mentioned technology is somewhat outdated. It is worth using it only when a network suitable for the installation of such a system is already present in the building, and we do not want or cannot allocate funds for adequate changes. Digital technology is characterized by simplicity of installation. It is being developed on an ongoing basis, but already allows interesting options, such as intelligent analysis of the received image. Digital monitoring can, for example, record the faces of the people seen by the cameras, and save them in a database.

Which alarm system to choose?

Home alarms are also divided into wired and wireless. Wireless home alarms are said to be great for situations where you decide to install an alarm system after the house has already been built. A wireless alarm system is powered by rechargeable batteries or batteries.

As for the wired system, it is a great choice in case you plan to install the system already at the stage of house construction. An alarm system of this type does not require the user to replace batteries, and allows peace of mind regarding possible damage to the system caused by third parties, such as potential thieves.

An important issue is also our budget, which is likely to be the main criterion for selection – it is its determination that will allow us to find out what kind of alarm system we can afford.
