Designed for your lifestyle

For homeowners, we can offer a wide range of solutions, each tailored to meet your specific needs.

An intruder alarm system for your home certainly needs to be reliable and effective, but it should also be designed in such a way that it doesn’t interfere with the way you move around your home.

For example, if you want to be able to keep burglar alarms on at night, but still be able to get a glass of water from the kitchen at 3 AM without setting the alarm off, our experienced team can design a system for you that makes this possible.

What’s more, even if we didn’t install your existing burglar alarm system, we can still take over the monitoring and maintenance of it.

”When it comes to burglar alarms, Tindall Security have to be your go to alarm company. We have quite a complex home and Tindall carried out a full site survey and took so much time and care ensuring that we had the right solution. We are so happy with, not only the service provided, but also the state-of-the-art security products that have been installed.

Three levels of protection

In broad terms, burglar alarms systems can be designed to offer one of three different levels of monitoring and intervention:

  • Wireless alarms or Bell only systems as the name suggests will ring an external bell and internal siren if the alarm is triggered. They rely on the noise to scare the intruders away.
  • App integrated systems still have the external bell and internal siren, but also send an alert to one or more mobile devices. If combined with CCTV, it is possible to check what’s happening at the property and then either call the police or remotely reset the alarm as appropriate.
  • Monitored systems will send a signal to a specialist Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) who monitor the system 24/7 and will immediately contact either a designated key holder or the police if the alarm is triggered.

Burglar Alarm FAQs

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF A BURGLAR ALARM SYSTEM?

To protect and to deter.

Designed to detect and indicate the presence, entry, or attempted entry of an intruder into the supervised premises.

WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF AN INTRUDER ALARM SYSTEM?

All IAS’s consist of the same specific items irrespective of size and grade.

  • CIE (Control and indicating equipment) Short form for: Control panel.
  • PSU (Power Supply Unit)
  • Detection Devices
  • Notification (Warning Devices/Signalling).

HOW WILL SYSTEM GRADE BE DEFINED?

In accordance with BS EN 50131-1/PD6662 the perceived risk level is dependant on the location of the premises, the type of building as well as the value of the contents inside.

SHOULD I KNOW THE GRADE OF SYSTEM MY PREMISES WILL REQUIRE?

No. A competent surveyor whose role is to offer professional advice for the design, implementation and grading of the security system will design a cost-effective system proposal that accurately establishes the system grade & target areas. We ensure correct system design at every survey through completion of our own security risk assessment (Requirement of DD CLC TS EN 50131-7).

WHAT ARE THE SYSTEM GRADES?

  • GRADE 1 Low Risk: Potential intruders unlikely to have any knowledge of security systems and limited tools.
  • GRADE 2 Low/Medium Risk: Intruder will have limited knowledge of security systems but will have a general range of tools.
  • GRADE 3 Medium/High Risk: Intruder is expected to be conversant with security systems and have a comprehensive range of tools.
  • GRADE 4 High Risk: Intruder will have the ability to plan an intrusion in detail and have a full compliment of tools.
