GSM Alarm Does Not Require Landline Phone Service

Posted by Greg Barker on Thu,Sep 06,2012 @ 05:18 PM

Home phones are now antiques.

Most new homeowners are deciding to not go with any home phone service since everyone in the family has a mobile phone. For years security systems used the home phone line to communicate to the central station. A few years ago, people had cellular backup units for their home alarm system in case a burglar cut the phone line. However, until recently you could not have two way voice security monitoring without a home phone line.

False Alarm Ordinances in California

Posted by Greg Barker on Mon,Jul 30,2012 @ 03:21 PM

False Alarm Ordinances 

False alarm ordinances are in place to reduce the number of fake reports that emergency resources respond to where they are not needed. This could potentially divert emergency personnel away from legitimate emergencies.  Most false alarms are due to user error and can be prevented. Some cities require homeowners to have a verified audio response system which helps to reduce false alarms. Police departments are starting to charge residents for false alarms. Make sure to register your alarm with your city and get an alarm permit!

Burglar Alarms

Posted by Greg Barker on Tue,May 01,2012 @ 10:57 AM


Burglar Alarms are Important to Your Families Safety  

In the Home Alarm Security Business we typically install security systems for two kinds of people, new homeowners and victims of recent burglaries. You may live in a great neighborhood but you never know if you might fall victim to a breaking and entering. Most of the burglary and home invasion victims we install burglar alarms for never thought it would happen to them.

Burglar alarms will protect your family from the potential of having a burglar invade your home, destroy and take your property and worse yet potentially harm those you love. The cost of having a burglar alarm installed is so minimal and you have great peace of mind knowing you have protected what matters most... your family!
