Sirens or Strobes and their role in home burglar alarm systems.

According to the FBI, a burglary occurs somewhere in the United States every 15.4 seconds. Burglary rates are on the decrease, however, and it is certainly unwise to be overly concerned about becoming a victim. Likewise it is unwise to be complacent. There is so much you can do these days to secure your home that peace of mind is easy to achieve.

Home burglar alarm systems help to deter intruders and prevent crime. 74.3% of unsuccessful burglaries are attributed to the alarm system scaring away the intruder. On the other hand, the probability of a burglary at a residential site without an alarm system is 14.8%.

So the question is not whether to fit an alarm system to your home, it is which system to choose. Burglars want to get in and out of your home as quickly as possible without being noticed or caught. A loud siren and strobes that activate when they enter your home or open a door or window will attract attention, which is the last thing they want.

The last thing you want is an intruder who is has already breached your property when your security system kicks in. A yard sign signals to would-be intruders that your home is protected, and encourages them to reconsider.

Sirens and strobes should be programmed to reset automatically after one or two minutes. That is enough time to warn off the criminal and prevents your security system becoming an annoyance to your neighbors.

An alarm system incorporating sirens and strobes should be properly installed, programmed, and maintained to get the best protection from it and to ensure that it does not activate inappropriately.
