Designing Your System

When looking for a new security system, don't assume that all systems are alike. A one-size-fits-all solution is not tailored to your specific needs and will not provide the high degree of protection you need to ensure that your home and family are truly safe. Since every home is different, Standard Security Systems are designed with your specific needs in mind. Our experts do a thorough walk-through and evaluation of your home or property (both interior and exterior) in order to recommend the security system that works best for you. In determining your budget think of system costs as an investment or an insurance policy; remember that most homeowners policies offer discounts up to 20% for monitored alarm systems.

Burglary

Its natural to want to protect what is yours; your home is your sanctuary and everyone has the right to feel safe. The fear that someone will invade your home and steal your possessions is very real. Worse still is the fear that you or someone you love will be forced to confront a potentially dangerous criminal caught in the act.

When it comes to protecting your home, an alarm system provides enormous comfort. 4Wires.com suggests that you tailor your alarm system to you specific needs; however, there are some essential components that no home should be without:

We Recommend:

• A sensor should be placed on every vulnerable door and window, including those that are hidden but may provide easy access to the home.

• Motion detectors should be installed as a secondary line of defense facing the main stairway inside the home to catch burglars heading for the stairs.

• A powerful 105 decibel siren that can be heard inside and outside should be installed to scare off burglars.

Additional equipment recommendations:

• Glass break detectors

• Barrier bars on basement windows

• Alarm screens to protect you while you're home

Also available:

• Outdoor sirens

• Strobe lights

• Voice sirens

• Indoor and outdoor cameras

• TV monitors

• Video monitoring systems

• Wireless key fob activation

Fire

Over one third of homes have battery-operated smoke detectors that don't work. Why do smoke alarms fail? Most often because batteries are missing, dead, or have been disconnected.
 

With a monitored, hard-wired smoke alarm you'll never run the risk of becoming a victim because you forgot to change the batteries in your smoke alarm. In the event of a fire, a panicked child or adult (especially one suffering from lack of oxygen) may not have the presence of mind, the time, or the ability to call the fire department. Hardwired so there is no battery to fail, monitored smoke and fire detection systems call the fire department automatically, saving vital time that could also save lives.
 

Because a monitored smoke detector is ALWAYS ON it will:

• Automatically relay an emergency signal to the central station and the fire department

• Emit a piercing 105 decibel siren that can be heard virtually anywhere in the house.

• Work whether you are at home or away

• Work if you are injured or incapacitated

Standard Security Systems Recommends:

• A minimum of one smoke detector on each level of the house including the basement.

• Preferred NFPA code is one smoke detector on each level and one in each bedroom.

• Connecting all smoke detectors to a central siren that can be heard throughout the home. If a fire starts in the basement (in a heating unit or clothes dryer for instance), the siren must be heard throughout the house.

Carbon Monoxide Detector Systems

Carbon monoxide (CO) is known as the silent killer because it is free of color, odor, taste, and sound. If dangerous levels of carbon monoxide are present in your home, you won't even know. The flu-like symptoms of CO poisoning (including severe headache, dizziness, mental confusion, nausea, or faintness) are debilitating and can be chronic. or deadly.

You can protect your health and the health of your family by installing a Carbon Monoxide Detector in your home monitored through Standard Security Systems. If high levels of CO are detected, an audible alarm sounds and the central station is immediately notified and dispatches the proper authorities.

Burner Monitor Systems

Connecting a Burner Monitoring System to your alarm system acts as an early warning device for detecting oil burner problems. The burner monitor links your oil burner to the alarm panel of your security system. If your burner goes into "safety lock-out" (i.e. the burner detects a malfunction and shuts itself down), a silent alarm is sent to the central station and you are notified immediately so that arrangements can be made to service your burner.

Low Temperature Sensor System

A Low Temperature Sensor sends a silent alarm to the central station when a sensor detects that the temperature has fallen below 45 degrees. Low temperature sensors installed in every zone within a home will detect virtually all heat failures, whether due to the burner or the heating circulation system. Although not an early warning system (your home will get cold), low temperature sensors will prevent serious damage due to frozen pipes - whether you're at home, or away.
 

Standard Security Systems Recommends:

• Each home should have at least one carbon monoxide detector, preferably located near the sleeping area. If there are multiple sleeping areas (i.e. on different floors), a CO detector should be placed outside of, or near, each area.

• CO detectors should be strongly considered for homes in which one or more residents is over the age of 65. The risk of unintentional carbon monoxide poisoning increases with age.

• A Burner Monitor can provide early notification of heat failure. This is especially recommended for families with very young children or elderly occupants.*

• A Low Temperature Sensor that will safeguard your home against frozen pipes, is recommended for homeowners who are absent from their homes during the winter's coldest months.*

Medical Emergency
There are 35 million Americans over the age of 65. It's estimated that over one-third of those seniors live alone. With approximately 10 million seniors each year suffering some sort of fall, personal security truly becomes a matter of life or death. Seniors who fall often are helpless and unable to reach a telephone. The victims may not be found for hours, or tragically, days later.

Standard Security Systems offers waterproof, worry-free convenience in a portable Wireless Panic Device that can be worn on a detachable chain or attached to a key ring. Tied into your monitored alarm system, the wearer simply presses the extra-large soft touch button to summon help. A feedback "click" and response LED light lets them know that their message for help has been sent. The wireless signal is transmitted to the central station and relayed immediately to the appropriate authorities.
 

Standard Security Systems Recommends:

• Personal security devices should be strongly considered for seniors living alone.

• Also recommended for individuals with limited mobility
