Security services
Burglar proofing your home and signing up with a security company that provides armed response is a way of life in South Africa. Security companies offer a range of services some of them are: motion sensors for inside and outside the home, pet sensors, remote panic buttons and they will accompany you into your premises if you request it. The alarm system is installed by a technician who can pre-programme your control panel so that you can alarm certain parts of the house individually.
It is best to use a company that already secures many homes in your area. Check where they are based as this will affect their response time in case of an emergency.
