Professional Intruder Alarm Systems Bedminster – Installation, Maintenance & Repair
An intruder or burglar alarm will provide protection to your business or commercial property inside and out and keep your company running without any disruption whilst also protecting your employees, clients and brand.

Burglars are much less prone to focus on properties with an alarm as they will probably want a quick and silent entry where they are much less likely to get apprehended.
What Are The Advantages of Commercial Intruder Alarms?
It is well-known that intruders are more likely to choose a property without a security system or an outdated system rather than run the risk of getting into a property with a recently integrated alarm system
If your business holds stock, specialist hardware, employee belongings and private and sensitive records then an intruder alarm system will decrease the likelihood of your property being broken into
An alarm system gives you peace of mind 24 hours a day, 365 days a year as you know if no one is at your business or property then your alarm will sound if someone gains access to it who is unauthorised
An alarm system usually makes staff members feel safer as it can be set at specified access points when they are working as well as decrease the worry of them entering into a vacant commercial property
A professionally fitted alarm often reduces your insurance costs whether it is a business, commercial property or residential property. In many cases, the sum invested in a monitored alarm system can be offset by a reduction in your insurance premium and it is definitely worth contacting your insurance supplier to check or asking various other insurance firms when your renewal is due
A property with a completely integrated alarm system is more likely to sell compared to a property without one
Professional alarm systems can be automated and can display in-house or remotely which access point has been broken into
Professional alarm systems can be linked to the emergency services and if the alarm is triggered the police will be called to the property right away
An alarm system will notify neighbours as well as passers-by if there has been a break-in and the police can be contacted quickly instead of you discovering when the next person enters your property
Not all companies have somebody there every day or even every week, some commercial properties are used to store products or inventory that are vital to your business. In these circumstances, a commercial intruder alarm offers you peace of mind that your property is safe and secure when no one is there
A number of intruder alarm systems feature cameras and motion detectors that alert you in the event that somebody is inside or outside of your property. This means you will be made aware that someone is at your property for you to investigate well before there is a probability of any burglary
Monitoring systems that are compliant with police requirements are suitable for prompt police response. The amount of time that can be saved by linking straight through to the monitoring centre can be the difference between catching a criminal or arriving too late.

What Are The Different Types of Commercial Intruder Alarms?
Depending on your needs, there are different types of alarm systems readily available and the one you choose will depend upon the nature of your business and the property and belongings you are protecting. Elite Fire & Security Security Services Bedminster can advise you of the very best solution for you and your business or commercial property and can integrate several security systems to ensure optimum security.
Remote Monitoring and Domestic Intruder Alarms – These types of alarm systems can be designed so that a call centre monitors your premises 24 hours a day. A signalling system will instantly contact the call monitoring centre in the event that the alarm system is triggered. The centre will then get in touch with the key holders and the police if you have a Police Response system. This can work in 3 separate ways;
Keyholder – when the alarm is set off, the alarm receiving centre will speak with your appointed keyholders
Text Alert – when the alarm is set off, an sms message is sent to notify your chosen contacts of an invasion
Police Monitoring – the emergency services will be notified through the alarm receiving centre if your alarm is set off
Wireless Intruder Alarm Systems – Wireless systems enable you to install sensors, cameras, beams and movement detectors around your commercial property that alert you when something or somebody is detected. Alarm systems such as these are fantastic if you have various entry points because the system will notify you regarding which sensors, cameras, beams and motions have been triggered.
An Audible Intruder Alarm – A loud alarm and flashing strobe lights to draw attention. Intruders will be alerted to such systems, however, they are normally unmonitored key holders and the police will not be notified unless a member of the public calls to report a disturbance. Consequently, they are not always the best solution for businesses and commercial properties as they rely on neighbours or passers-by noticing and reporting the disturbance as well as some seasoned burglars being undaunted by the alarm and flashing lights.

Professional Access Control Services Bedminster – Installation, Maintenance & Repair
Access control systems offer enhanced security to businesses, homes or premises by offering manageable control over who is allowed access. They are among one of the most used security systems for businesses at this time and there are different types of systems available to suit your needs.
Access control can be applied on doors, gateways, lifts, barriers or any entrance or exit points to control who enters and leaves a property. They are a solution to protect people within a residential or commercial property, a particular room or area in a property, belongings and systems as well as the property itself. They make it possible for you to keep track of and control who is entering and leaving at any time.
An access control system not only provides security for who is entering a property or site but also permits quick entry with a pin code or swipe access card.
What Are The Different Types Of Access Control Systems?
There are various types of Access Control Door Systems and each one functions slightly differently. Elite Fire & Security Security Services Bedminster are experts in the types available and will be able to strongly recommend the ideal system for your property, business, needs and spending plan.
Keypad Entry Access Control Systems
Key Fob Entry Access Control Systems
Card Entry Access Control Systems
Fingerprint Entry Access Control Systems
Retina Entry Access Control Systems
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) Entry Access Control Systems
Keypad Entry Access – This form of access control system utilises a keypad with a numeric keypad for entering and exiting. Businesses and homeowners can change the numeric code at any time if necessary.
Key Fob Entry Access – This is when someone who has been given permission to access a property or an area uses a wireless remote control key fob to open the entry point, similar to a car key fob. The fob is battery-operated.
Card Entry Access – Access to an access point or door is controlled by a keycard that contains a security token. An installed keycard reader opens and closes the door when the card is tapped against the reader or swiped through a swipe reader.
Fingerprint Entry Access – Biometric (fingerprint and retina) entry access control systems are growing in appeal because they are considered more secure because of the fact that the entry code, fob or card can not be passed on to any individual who isn’t authorised. A fingerprint entry access control system allows authorised individuals to gain access promptly whilst preventing unauthorised persons from doing so.
Retina Entry Access – Biometric (retina and fingerprint) entry access control systems are a growing market with huge amounts of organisations using them due to the fact that they are viewed as more secure access systems. The entry code, fob or card can not be passed on to anyone who isn’t authorised and only allows access to authorised individuals.
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) Entry Access – Access control systems that use RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) allow entry to authorised people. Radio waves are sent out by the RFID control reader, and radio waves are sent out by the RFID tags (cards/fobs). Whenever the card is within range, the antenna within it captures the waves and broadcasts a notification which contains a unique number from the chip, which permits access.
Access control door systems have the same purpose of permitting or refuting entry or exit but they do so in different ways. You can have an access control door system in a business or commercial property or home, or if you have land that is secured by secure fencing and gateways it allows you to control who enters. The systems can be developed and fitted to doors, gates, barriers, turnstiles and a lot more.

The system you choose will depend upon your property and security requirements. Elite Fire & Security Security Services Bedminster will conduct a full security appraisal of your site and get to know your needs and then recommend the most ideal solution for you and your budget.
As opposed to an access control door system, an intruder alarm will not prevent anyone from entering a building or area, it will just alert you or others that the area has been accessed without your consent.
