Security is a priority for every business owner and it is important to choose a reliable and agile solution to combat the smart criminals of today. With a worrying figure of seventy per cent of crimes in New Zealand being burglaries from properties (in 2020) with over 10,000 victimisations linked to those break-ins, alarm monitoring systems are a highly justified investment.
If you do not have a monitored system then here are some motivational reasons for choosing this solution:
24/7/365 Monitoring
Having an alarm is a deterrent but having a monitored system is immeasurably more effective. Your business will be under surveillance by dedicated personnel from a central monitoring station 24/7/365 days a year. Whether it is anti-hijacking, theft from or of vehicles or after-hours surveillance, it is always there, always on, always watching and recording.
Instant Reactions
A monitored system can have you involved as much or as little as you want. For example, you may opt to be notified live if there is an unauthorized entry onto your business premises. In addition, fire, floods and medical emergencies can be assisted through the system.
Faster Authority Involvement
Faster reaction from a security hub means faster involvement from the authorities. Law enforcement officers, fire departments and/or medics are dispatched immediately to your address.
Less Loss Of Life Or Assets.
Faster involvement by the appropriate parties means less loss of lives and less damage to assets. A break-in team will be hampered from achieving their goal if law enforcement is on the scene in minutes and the chance of catching and charging the criminals is greatly enhanced.
Avoid Irritating False Alarms
There is nothing more frustrating than constant phone calls from an alarm signal hub telling you that the alarm has gone off AGAIN. Never mind the irritation to your neighbours who are putting up the noise. A monitoring centre will be able to visually verify the alarm needs and can take more strategic action.
Reporting Overviews
A monitored system will collate data on who opens and closes the premises as the codes are unique to employees. You will also be proactively contacted if a fault is picked up in the system.
Deterring The Dirt
Premises that have alarm monitoring systems with active hub teams are a big deterrent to thieves. It makes their criminal activities far more complex so they would rather select a simpler setup that is just an alarm with no monitoring.
Insurance Savings
A property monitoring system will influence the reduction of your insurance rates as the underwriters risk has reduced.
