Garage Security Systems
Deter Burglars
Keep Everything Secure
Homeowners! Do you have any Garage Security Systems in place to protect
valuables stored in the Garage from Burglars?
If you are like most homeowners, you store a variety of valuable items in you garage. However, few
homeowners implement Garage Security Systems that ensure their garage and everything in it is
secure from uninvited intruders.
According to the FBI, nearly 10% of illegal entries are gained through a garage
entrance. In addition, most garages are easy for burglars to get into. Once in, an intruder has a
protected base from which to gain entry to the rest of your home.
Garage Security Systems
When used properly, Garage Security Systems can be the number one deterrent to burglars. Research shows alarm
systems are responsible for over 70% of unsuccessful burglaries.
Alarms are a critical element of Garage Security Systems, but are not replacements for good Garage Door Locks
and quality garage doors.
Depending on your needs, Garage Security Systems will be either wired or wireless. Most can also be configured
to monitor doors and windows plus many can also detect smoke, heat and carbon monoxide.

Security Cameras
There are several types of security cameras, everything from fixed to wireless wide angle cameras that can be
viewed on your home computer.
Wireless Security Cameras eliminate the inconvenience and expense of wiring your garage or home. These systems
can be moved from home to home and in the event of power failures, offer backup batteries.
Some systems offer communication with the monitoring station, enabling you to view your home remotely.
Motion Detectors
There are Four Basic Types Of Motion Detectors commonly used in alarm systems.
1. Passive Infrared Detectors are sensitive devices that respond to the heat emitted by a
human body
2. Photoelectric Beam Detectors respond to any physical object that interrupts an invisible
beam of infrared light
3. Ultrasonic Motion Detectors are an alternative to passive infrared devices. They operate
by covering an area with high-frequency sound that is inaudible to the human ear.
4. Microwave Motion Detectors are similar in principle to ultrasonic detectors. because
they cover large areas, they are particularly suited to use in warehouses and factories. Microwave Motion
Detectors are seldom used in home security systems.
Security Systems Sensors
Magnetic Contacts are the most common security systems sensors
used for windows and doors. They are a two-element devices that, when separated, break a magnetic field, opening a
switch and sending a signal to the alarm system.
Security Systems Monitoring Services
Off-site Security Systems Monitoring Services are an valuable service for a garage or home alarm system. They
provide trained personnel that can evaluate each alarm and determine whether the alarm was triggered by an
intrusion, fire or other emergency. The best systems offer two-way communication that allows security people to
communicate directly with anyone in the garage or home.
Wireless Security Systems
Wireless Security Systems eliminate the inconvenience and expense of wiring your garage or home. These systems
can be moved from home to home and in the event of power failures, offer backup batteries.
Most of today's Monitoring Systems feature voice communication. This enables you to listen and talk directly to
your home if an alarm is activated.
A Wireless Security Systems could be the ideal addition to your Garage Security Systems. They are easy to
install and offer reliable security for your garage and home.
