Hello everyone,

since there have been increased break-ins in our town over the past weeks and months, we are currently considering equipping our house with a wireless alarm system.

Are there already any experiences with specific offered systems?

We want to install at least three switching lines - an outer shell protection that can also be used when people or the dog are in the house, a detection line for the two garages, and a complete arming with outer shell protection, motion detectors & garages when the building is completely empty.

We look forward to any reports of experience.

Regards,

Dirk

Hello Dirk,

Together with the building permit, we received a notice regarding police consultation. We were extensively advised there about security measures. Mechanical security always takes precedence over alarm technology. After all, the goal is that burglars don’t get into the house at all, not that they are detected after a break-in.

The police only recommend alarm systems for securing valuables (e.g., if you keep a lot of money or valuable jewelry at home). But you also have to consider how alarm monitoring is implemented. If you rely only on acoustic or optical signal devices, you (and the neighbors) will have quite a bit of fun with (unavoidable) false alarms. Connecting to a security company is expensive, especially with a 24-hour security control center...

I implemented this together with an acquaintance in a clubhouse using RWE Smarthome. Motion detectors, door and window contacts, etc. Remote controllable via PC and smartphone app. We also implemented alarm notifications for several people this way. Additionally, with siren and outdoor light. Furthermore, the system can also be used for home automation tasks. At home, I rely on Homematic or plan to do so. I have not implemented alarm security with it yet.
