Security & Alarm Systems

Discover the Essence of Security: Your Path to Safety and Peace of Mind

In the realm of safeguarding your home or business, alarm systems play a pivotal role. They not only act as a robust deterrent against potential vandalism and theft but also stand as vigilant guardians, ready to alert property owners, neighbors, family, or the police when professionally monitored.

Beyond security, alarm systems offer versatile functionality. They can be equipped with advanced sensors capable of detecting water leaks, allowing timely notifications to limit potential water damage. Similarly, smoke detectors serve as lookout against fire hazards, automatically signaling the fire department when the system is professionally monitored.

Wired vs. Wireless Alarm Systems: Tailoring Your Security

When you're navigating the landscape of security systems, the choice between wired and wireless options often hinges on sensors and detectors.

Wired sensors offer an economical solution, eliminating the need for battery replacements. Ideal for new constructions or renovations, they seamlessly integrate into doors, windows, glass breaks, smoke detectors, motion sensors, keypads, and sirens.

However, for existing homes, the task of running wires becomes a specialized craft best handled by professionals or seasoned DIY enthusiasts. In such scenarios, wireless sensors emerge as the practical choice. While they may have a slightly higher cost, they significantly reduce labor requirements. Not to mention, modern wireless alarm systems boast remarkable battery life improvements.

The decision between wired and wireless alarm systems ultimately revolves around your unique needs and circumstances, and Aartech Canada is here to guide you in making the right choice for your security needs.

Self-Monitored vs. Professionally Monitored Alarm Systems: Your Choice for Peace of Mind

When it comes to choosing the right alarm system, deciding between self-monitoring and professional monitoring plays a crucial role.

If you prefer your alarm to notify you, your family, or a trusted neighbor, then a self-monitored alarm system is your answer. These systems can alert you via a telephone line or send convenient text or push messages directly to your mobile app.

On the other hand, if you're seeking benefits such as insurance discounts, swift police or guard dispatch, or automatic fire department notification in case of a fire without your direct intervention, a professionally monitored alarm system is the ideal choice.

At Aartech Canada, we empower you with the freedom to select the monitoring option that aligns perfectly with your security requirements, ensuring your peace of mind.

Elevate Your Security System with Smart Home Integration

In today's interconnected world, your alarm system can be more than just a guardian. It can be the centerpiece of your smart home.

If you're intrigued by the idea of integrating smart home functions with your security system, you're in the right place. Some systems, such as the Ring Alarm, seamlessly connect with smart devices, offering the convenience of direct compatibility. For instance, Ring supports a range of basic Z-Wave devices, opening the door to a world of possibilities.

On the other hand, more advanced systems like DSC can be harmoniously integrated with a Smart Home Hub, like Vera, for a truly immersive smart home and alarm integration. This advanced setup offers a world of power and possibilities, though it may require a bit more complexity.

At Aartech Canada, we're here to help you unlock the full potential of your alarm system. Explore the world of smart home integration, and let your security system become the hub of your connected life.
