Professionally installed and designed Advanced Alarms security and fire systems provide hundreds of local homes and businesses invaluable protection from intrusion, burglary, fire, internal theft, mechanical failure, environmental factors and other dangers. Hospitals, schools, manufacturing plants, churches, municipal buildings, banks, malls, office buildings, and homes are just some of the applications we protect.

Depending on the application, environmental factors, and building construction, systems may be hard-wired, wireless, or a combination of both. Regardless of which type of system you invest in, there are a few common components that every security system has.

Control Panel

This is the brain of the system. The correct panel is determined by the capacity (areas of protection) and features you need (both now and in the future).

Door/Window Contact

Two-piece electromagnetic contact switch that signals an alarm if the switch is separated from the magnet.

Motion Sensor

Device that uses Passive Infrared and Microwave technologies to detect motion in a protected area. The two technologies are combined to help prevent false alarms. In order for the motion sensor to signal an alarm, it has to detect motion and heat at the same time.

Panic Button

Device that can be used in retail stores or banks that sends a silent alarm to summon immediate assistance when pressed. Similarly, wireless panic pendants can be worn and used to summon immediate medical or other assistance.

Other Detection Sensors

Low or high temperature alerts, water detection monitors, gas and carbon monoxide detectors, and mechanical sensors will trigger an alarm if the building temperature drops, the freezer shuts down, the boiler fails, the water pipe bursts, or a myriad of other would-be catastrophes threaten.

Whether your application is residential, commercial, or industrial, Advanced Alarm Systems will work with you to design, install, and service the right system to give you the peace of mind you deserve.
