What’s in a wireless alarm?

What can be protected with a wireless alarm?

There are lots of brands of alarm system available on the market today, so what is a wireless alarm? What’s the advantage of a wireless alarm system over a wired? What does our alarm system protect?

 

We mainly use the Pyronix Enforcer alarm system which we have used for years. It’s effective, secure and has a great technical back up. As Pyronix have been on the go for years, we know that we can rely on their testing methods and security. But what can we do for you and what would benefit your home or business? 

The Wireless Advantage

Gone are the days when installing a comprehensive alarm system meant tearing up your walls and running cables throughout your property. The Pyronix Enforcer wireless system offers professional-grade security without the disruption. This means faster installation, cleaner aesthetics, and the flexibility to expand your system as your needs evolve.
But wireless doesn’t mean compromised security. The Enforcer uses advanced encryption and two-way communication to ensure your system remains tamper-proof and reliable. Each sensor communicates directly with the control panel, providing real-time status updates and instant alerts when triggered.

 

So what comes with a wireless alarm?

With all alarms there are core parts that come with it, all designed to protect your home. The main panel which can be sited wherever is convenient for you. It could be placed at the front door for easy access or sited in a cupboard out of the way.

We may combine a wireless keypad with this if the panel is in a cupboard so you can pop your code in when you walk in the door. You can add as many keypads as you like so could have one at the front door and one at the back if you prefer, depending upon the property. 

 

The bell is normally sited in a fairly obvious place outside, and again you can add more than one for a noisier alarm. Also we can add internal sirens to the property too if preferable. 

 

After we install the main panel, we add various sensors and components around the property, to protect the property. 

 

 

PIR Motion Detectors: Your First Line of Defense

These passive infrared sensors are the workhorses of any security system. The Enforcer’s PIR detectors use advanced dual-element technology to distinguish between genuine intruders and false alarms caused by pets or environmental factors.
Perfect for protecting living rooms, hallways, and other high-traffic areas, these sensors create invisible barriers that instantly detect movement. 

There are a few types of PIR and we also have ones which are designed for external use to great for gardens, yards etc. A great first line of defence before anyone gets into the house. 

 

Door and Window Contacts: Securing Entry Points

Every potential entry point deserves protection. The Enforcer’s magnetic door and window contacts are virtually invisible once installed, yet they provide robust protection by detecting when doors or windows are opened. These sensors are essential for ground-floor windows, patio doors, and any other vulnerable access points. 

 

There are various types and colours of contact which are designed for all designs of windows and doors, the most popular being the Nano as it’s small and discrete.  

We also have ones designed for roller shutters, garages and garden gates so can  cover external areas as well. 

 

 

Glass Break Detectors: Advanced Perimeter Protection

Sometimes intruders don’t bother with doors or windows – they create their own entry points. Glass break detectors (shocks) use acoustic technology to identify the specific sound frequency of breaking glass, providing an additional layer of protection for windows and glass doors throughout your property.

Smoke and Heat Detectors: Beyond Security

The Enforcer system isn’t just about intruders – it’s about comprehensive property protection. Integrated smoke and heat detectors provide early warning of fire hazards, potentially saving lives and preventing devastating property damage. These sensors can trigger both local alarms and remote notifications, ensuring you’re alerted even when away from home.
They come with a 10 year battery life and interlink together so comply with the Scottish Government regulations.

 

Carbon Monoxide Detectors: The Silent Threat

Carbon monoxide is odorless and invisible, making it one of the most dangerous household threats. The Enforcer’s CO detectors continuously monitor air quality and provide instant alerts if dangerous levels are detected, giving you and your family precious time to evacuate safely.

Flood Detectors: Water Damage Prevention

Water damage can be just as devastating as fire or theft. Flood detectors placed in basements, utility rooms, or near water heaters can detect even small amounts of water, alerting you to potential problems before they become expensive disasters.

 

Car Defender

An innovative, unique solution for vehicle theft detection. The car defender is designed to prevent thefts, especially keyless thefts, by triggering the alarm home alarm when an attempt is made.

With three configurable detection modes, the CarDefender offers a secure and visual deterrent that provides users with an early warning enabling swift action to be taken.

This is great for cars, motor bikes, e-bikes and many others.  

Two way hold up device

The Pyronix HUD/MED-WE represents the pinnacle of personal security technology – a two-way wireless hold-up device that puts emergency response literally in the palm of your hand. With an impressive wireless range of up to 300 meters in open space, this compact device offers ultimate flexibility through its multiple carrying options: lanyard, keyring, belt clip, or wall mount.
