A Few Sound Facts About Home Security Systems By David C. Johnson Anyone who keeps track of the direction that crime statistics are heading knows that the news just isn't good. Even though local police departments are fully staffed as they have never been before, property crimes continue to rise as jails and prisons continue to become overcrowded. One offshoot of all of this is that preventative law enforcement or proactive policing has been replaced by reactive police tactics that focus on solving crimes after they have been committed.
This means that you, as a home owner, are having to become more responsible for your own homes security and the trend doesn't appear to be changing any time soon. The good news is that systems have continued to become more reliable and sophisticated and also they have become far more affordable. systems began to become readily available during the late nineteen-sixties and the early nineteen-seventies and back then they were basically trip switches on doors and windows connected to an alarm.
For anyone with any knowledge of the systems basic functions, they were quite simple to disable, so they were very unreliable. So many things have changed in systems since those early days and what is used now to protect homes, would be hardly recognizable to an installation technician back then. Trip mechanisms for widows and doors are still employed as components of modern alarm systems but they are far more secure and reliable.
Even then, motion and body heat detectors are also another component of every complete system in this day and age. The level of technology that goes into these newer components is truly astoundinmg and not only have they grown smaller and more easy to conceal but they have also become far more sensetive and reliable. Motion and body heat detectors have the capacity to differentiate between man and animal now, such as cats and dogs. This means that false alarms triggered by pets are virtually non existent.
In older alarm systems, the security blanket on a home began at the front door and covered the house only but now due to the advent of these modern heat and motion detectors, a homes span of security now stretches beyond the dwelling and into the outside perimeter of the home. It is now not uncommon for a home to have a thirty-five foot exterior security perimeter that protects the home and its inhabitants with concealed body heat and motion detectors that wrap completely around the home.
Arming and disarming systems has now become so much more convenient also. Now home owners can set their home alarms with a quick click of a button that is held on their hey chain just the same way as their car alarm is set and
its also disarmed the same way when they return home. Even voice recognition technology is now available that allows a home or business owner to arm or disarm an alarm system by using voice commands.
