Do you rent a property, or have loved ones currently renting? Renters may not realise there are excellent alarm systems on the market that are portable and full-featured.
In previous articles we have outlined the importance and benefits of having a monitored alarm system. A common misconception is that all alarm systems can only be installed under the approval of the property owner. For any 'fixed' alarm system that needs to be hard-wired to the property, this is still the case. However, there are many Security Alarm and Monitoring systems on the market that are portable, relocatable and do not require any modification to your rented property.
Renters are far more likely than owners to be burglary victims. At a rate 85 percent higher than home-owning households.
Alarm & Monitoring Systems for Renters
For renters, what is the ideal Alarm System?
- It must be easy to install and uninstall
It must not require hard-wiring or fixed mounting on walls. The alarm system must be able to be installed and uninstalled without causing damage to the property. - It must be relocatable
The alarm system should be able to be reconfigured at a new property if necessary. - It must be able easily upgradeable and expandable
if the alarm system is being installed in a bigger property, it must be able to be upgraded with extra sensors to ensure the entire property is protected. - It must include monitoring services
24/7 Monitoring Services are alerted when your arlarm system has been triiggered, and they will contact you immediately to alert you of a possible intrusion. They will also send security to your premises immediately with your approval.
Thankfully, Millennium Security offer the perfect solution for renters.
Meet the Security Guard III
Designed and Built in Australia, the award winning Security Guard III is the ideal Alarm and Monitoring System for rental properties and meets the criteria for what renters require. So, what makes this system so good? For starters, the main sensor unit communicates with all other sensors throughout the property wirelessly. No wires required! The Security Guard III constantly monitors each sensor and alerts you when any sensor in the property requires a battery change. It boasts 'Voice Announcement' - The alarm system talks to you when it needs to inform you of critical information, such as which sensor triggers an alarm response.
Designed with flexibility in mind, should you relocate to a larger property extra sensors can be added and connected wirelessly to your Security Guard III providing you with full sensored security with minimal outlay.
The Security Guard III is also able to contact a Security Monitoring provider through mobile networks as well as via standard landline telephone systems should your alarm system activate. And one of the nicest features of this alarm system is the incredibly loud siren that operates at a frequency that disorients potential thieves very quickly. The effect on intruders is quite severe making it is impossible for them to sustain long exposure to the noise.
