Visible alarm systems can deter burglars. There are a range of options for what happens when an alarm is triggered. For example, there are bells only, alarm receiving centre, and homeowner monitored alarms. These are all effective as deterrence methods, and which you choose will depend on your specific needs.

How much does a burglar alarm cost?

This is usually the question that comes first when thinking about installing a home security system and reasonably so. However, it can also be very tricky to provide an accurate answer as alarms now features varying shapes and sizes. However one thing to have in mind when it comes to getting a burglar alarm is that it’s definitely better to be safe than sorry. Here, we are going to provide a clear and succinct information to help you get a good idea of how much you’d have to spend to have your house secured.

Let’s Consider the Different Types of Burglar Alarms

• Bells-only alarms

This is the most popular type which features a loud siren that is positioned at the exterior of your building and linked with varying motion sensors in strategic locations. Whenever a motion is detected by the sensors, an ear-splitting sound would be triggered. To get the basic starter kit (2-3 sensors and 1 siren) for a DIY installation, the cost ranges between £130 - £160. However for a more advanced system, the price jumps to £400 - £500.

• Dialler alarm systems

This works with different motion sensors strategically placed across the home. When triggered, it sets off the siren and also rings your mobile device. A system with two sensors and one emergency number costs between £200 - £300.

• Monitored alarm systems

This system is linked to a central call centre who alarms the authorities or private security to a violation of the protected zone. The cost for a monitored alarm system starts within the range of £500 to £600, while the monitoring services can cost within the range of £300 to £400 annually.

Other Possible Costs

• Installation

After purchase, you’ll need to decide whether or not you want your system professionally installed. Generally, the cost of getting a professional installation service costs between £150 to £200.

• Maintenance

Do you think your burglar alarm requires yearly maintenance inspections? Depending on the make and model of the system, the maintenance cost may vary. However, the prices usually starts within a range of £100 to £150.

How to secure a double gate?

One of the major challenges faced by double gates is wind as this is always blowing over the gates and slamming them together anytime it passes by. So how do you tackle this? Since you can do only so little about the wind, the only option you have is to enforce or secure your double gates. This is quite simple if you have the adequate knowledge and skills, if not, we’d strongly recommend calling in a professional who can guarantee the best results the first time. In this post, we’re going to take your through the processes involved in securing a double gate to ensure your project turns out a success. Let’s take a look!

  1. Hammer a pipe into the ground. Since this isn’t a heavy construction work, you need not worry about water finding its way into your basement. To do this, simply open the gate and stretch it to determine how far it can go. Once done, proceed to mark the place right below the gate’s edge. This is the spot where you will hammer in the metal pipe.
  2. Install the lower bracket. With the pipe in place, the next thing is to have the lower bracket installed. Start by drilling some pilot holes if necessary, then screw the nails right into the wooden gate via the bracket’s holes.
  3. Take measurements for the top bracket using the cane bolt. Once done with the lower bracket installation, you’ll have to bring out the cane bolt and attach it to the gate to give you an idea of where to place the top bracket - mark the spot using a pencil.
  4. Install the top bracket. Start by removing the cane bolt and install the top bracket just as you’ve done with the lower bracket.
  5. Install the cane bolt through both brackets.
Which CCTV camera should I get?

The type of camera that will be most effective will vary depending on the space you would like to monitor as well as the specific location. Professional CCTV installation companies can carry out a survey of your property and identify the key areas to monitor.
