CCTV systems are a great all rounder for home security, not only do the deter criminal activity but they also record activity, which can be used as evidence.

Burglar Alarms
Burglar alarm systems have been around for decades and are the most common electronic security measure in our homes. They offer a visual deterrent but also keep criminals guessing weather the alarm is monitored or not. There are 2 categories of burglar alarm systems, one is monitored and the other is bells only. A monitored system will send a signal to a key holder or monitoring station upon a confirmed alarm.
Monitored alarms are great for piece of mind but they come with a yearly service and maintenance cost. Modern technology now means that you can monitor your alarm system yourself from a smartphone app, with real time notifications and alarms, this is good idea if your on a budget.
Wireless burglar alarm technology is also a great option if you want a quick and wire free installation. Professional alarm systems offer secure and reliable wireless technology.
