A survey of over 2,000 UK homeowners revealed that 42% regularly leave their homes unlocked, only locking up if they’re away overnight. Even more concerning, fewer than half would consider changing their locks after losing their keys.
These risky habits highlight why alarm monitoring is essential for home security. Alarm monitoring ensures that whenever your security alarm activates, keyholders (people holding spare keys to your property) and the relevant authorities are promptly alerted.
Top Reasons for Installing Alarm Monitoring in Security Systems
Here are the key benefits of adding alarm monitoring to your security system:
-
Quick Response Time
When your home security system is activated, rapid action is essential. Effective alarm monitoring guarantees someone is always watching over your property. They receive immediate alerts when an alarm is triggered, enabling quick action to manage the situation. -
Remote Control
Modern alarm monitoring systems incorporate advanced technology for remote access and control. Your monitoring provider can supply mobile apps or online portals that allow you to manage your home or business security from anywhere.
With remote technology, you can view live updates, activate or deactivate alarms, and receive instant notifications via phone or email whenever your alarm is triggered. This ensures you're always informed and ready to respond swiftly.
-
Guaranteed Response
Most break-ins occur between 6 PM and 6 AM. If you're the primary keyholder, you might find yourself first at the scene, potentially without backup. This can be both risky and frightening.
If you're on holiday or in an area with poor phone or Wi-Fi reception, you may miss crucial alerts entirely. An alarm monitoring system linked to an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) removes this burden, ensuring accredited responders are notified immediately. This keeps you safe and prevents you from being exposed to danger.
-
Round-the-Clock Protection
Criminals don’t keep standard working hours—they can strike at any time. With 24/7 alarm monitoring, your home or business is continuously protected. Constant monitoring ensures that unusual activity or potential threats are swiftly identified and managed, regardless of when they happen.
Knowing your property is under continual surveillance provides reassurance and peace of mind. Whether you're at home, away on business, or travelling, you can be confident your premises are secure at all times.
