Burglar Alarms: Secure Your Home
Overview
Burglar alarms have become essential in supermarkets, businesses, and increasingly in private homes. Technological advancements and market competition have reduced prices, making basic systems available for as little as $10.
How Do Burglar Alarms Work?
Traditional wired alarms are nearly outdated. Today, wireless burglar alarms primarily function through:
1. Radio frequency connections
2. Infrared light rays
Wired systems needed continuous power supply, while wireless versions are battery-operated. Hybrid alarms combine both wired and wireless features.
Burglar alarms operate on straightforward principles. They activate when their circuit is interrupted, such as when an intruder crosses a sensor or a door opens.
Types of Circuits
There are two main circuit types: open and closed. Simply put, a closed circuit allows electricity to flow when a door is secured, but when interrupted (e.g., by opening a door), the alarm triggers. Conversely, open circuits work in the opposite manner?"activating the alarm when a door is secured.
Closed circuits are often preferred for front doors due to concerns about burglars cutting wires.
Sensor Functionality
In wired systems, sensors use magnets and spring-loaded switches to close the circuit when doors are shut, triggering the alarm when opened. Wireless infrared systems use sensors and emitters to achieve the same effect. If the infrared light is disrupted, such as by an open door, the circuit breaks, and the alarm sounds.
Protecting Cars
Burglar alarms are also effective in securing vehicles. FM radio-based car alarms are gaining popularity for their simplicity. These systems consist of a transmitter in the car and a receiver outside, like at home or in the office. The receiver activates an alarm if the car moves a few meters. Importantly, even if the transmitter is disconnected, the receiver remains active, ensuring reliability.
Installation Tips
When installing a burglar alarm, ensure compliance with insurance company guidelines or certification by third-party organizations like Underwriters Laboratory. This guarantees additional security support in case the system is compromised.
Secure your home or vehicle with a reliable burglar alarm to ensure peace of mind and protection.
