We have a number of different home and business alarm options to suit every clients need. We simply modify our hybrid systems to accommodate what is required. The common parts of our systems however, stay the same across the board.
All our control panels work for new installations and for system upgrades/takeovers. The Eaton products that we use are completely adaptable and designed in a way that suits any scenario.
The two main panels that we use are the Ion 30R and Ion 40H.
Both Ion 30R and Ion 40H Systems can be used for new installations or system upgrades. Your Damar surveyor will advise you on which one is most suitable. As a rule of thumb, for new installations we tend to fit the Ion 30R, for system upgrades with existing cables, we tend to use the Ion 40H. Both use the same keypad (shown in the image above) and are ready for wired or wireless detection devices.
Both systems however come ready to use the Eaton Secure Connect app. (see the 'app control' news story for more information). The best feature of the app, is that if your alarm system activates, then the Eaton app instantly notifies you of the very point where the alarm has triggered.
The Eaton keypad comes in both wired and wireless versions but looks exactly the same in appearance. The keypad is where you will set and unset your alarm and is usually located in the entrance of a property. As standard we always try to use a wired keypad, but where a keypad is needed in a location where cables cant get to, then we can now opt for the wireless option.
All our panels come with a variety of detection devices. We have listed the most common ones that we use below.
Slim line Wireless door contact, used on main entrance doors will operate when the magnet moves apart from the contact. (only contact shown in image). i.e where a door or window is opened.
Wireless vibration contacts. A very neat wireless vibration detector ( same appearance as the door contact) operates when the surface it is mounted on to detects vibration. A gross attack on a door or a window being smashed. Its a great device that creates a perimeter defense around your property, activating the alarm before any intrusion into the property occurs. The vibration detector can be used in areas where you keep your pets. Cats are notorious for setting off movement sensors so this gives you the chance to keep a room armed (windows and doors not movement detection) whilst your cats continue to live as normal.
Wired or Wireless motion detection. This classic device that everyone knows has a very clean and neat design. Perfectly discreet in your homes. It has a pet option which allows pets up to a certain weight to move around on the ground without activating the alarm when set. This motion sensor also is available as a dual detection model, for areas likely to be affected by environmental factors such as conservatories and garages.
Panic alarms can be operated 24hours even if the system is unset. The Panic Alarm, when operated, instantly sets off all the alarm sounders both inside and outside your property. Its wireless and can be carried around anywhere you choose to go.
And of course all of our jobs are finished off with our very recognizable wired sounders.
Please visit our bellbox evolution news story to see why we recently changed the model of sounder we use.
Certain properties may need monitoring and Police Response. We work with a monitoring station that watches over your security systems 24 hours a day. We offer police calling systems for your intruder alarms and can also offer CCTV monitoring too.
