Latest Technologies For Security Alarm Monitoring System

By Roy van Rivero


Every building or facility should implement security measures and alarm monitoring systems take a crucial role for its success. The reason is pretty obvious: it can save lives of people who are inside the facility as well as of those from immediate environs. That said, one should realize that it is not just about system installation; rather, it is about ensuring that the security alarm monitoring system installed has passed the industry standards and has been proven to perform its intended functions. It should address various types of security threat - be it is caused by nature or man-made.

As a person running a commercial building or facility, one important step you can take in order to give the necessary safety for your people is to keep yourself updated with the current trends/latest technologies used for building security implementation. You can effectively do it by, for instance, keeping an eye on some alarm monitoring service providers, which gives you important insights which technology to use for your own building - which one can work better for the type of facility you have.

With the aim of giving some general insights about security systems being used by alarm monitoring service providers for their clients, I thought sharing the most common types below is a good idea. Checkout the following technologies:

Video monitoring system -- this is a big help for businesses/establishment most especially if you have limited manpower to watch over the entire facility. Security cameras for video surveillance systems eliminate false alarm dispatches as visual data ensures the authenticity of the situation, which can help authorities to decide whether to deliver a high priority response or not. (Some popular brands: Foscam; SVAT; and Sharx Security)

Fire alarm system - just like a video monitoring system, this is another important technology that should be installed in every building/facility as several statistics suggest that fire accidents are one of the top causes of fatalities involving both man-made and natural calamities. Fire alarm systems given by security alarm monitoring service providers for their clients also include fire suppression and sprinkler monitoring. (Some popular brands: SimplexGrinnell; Cerberus PRO; Ajax Chubb Varel(TM))

Water detection system - aside from fire, waters can also be a cause of accident inside a facility; in fact, water damage ranks second (next to power outage) as the leading cause of business interruption. There are a number of water leak monitoring systems you can find in the market today, which are aimed at protecting facilities and other assets against water-related problems. (Some popular brands: Honeywell; FloodMaster)

Elevator monitoring - sometimes overlooked by some building facilities;yet, it is important as well as part of your overall monitoring system, helping to provide additional safety for both clients and employees and for the facility itself. (Some popular brands: Lift-Net(R); Memcom)
