Government statistics have shown that around 80 Percent of burglaries carried out on homes fitted with burglar alarms are unsuccessful. This suggests that burglar alarms are a useful deterrent for prospective criminals.

Take a look around your area, and if most homes have an alarm and yours doesn't, you probably stand more chance of being burgled. Of course, this does depend on many other factors, such as having a dog, or how good the other security features of your home are.

There are a few different types of alarm system. The first, and most common, is the traditional "bells only" system.The more expensive option is a "monitored alarm", which may be worth thinking about if you have a lot of valuable property, or you live somewhere isolated although it may be more appealing purely for the extra peace of mind. Monitored alarms are connected to an "alarm receiving centre" where someone will alert the police if an intruder is detected you can get more information on monitored systems in the next category.The traditional alarm system normally consist of the following:
