Why have a monitored intruder alarm?
Intruder alarm systems can be vastly different but are generally categorised into two types:
JB-EYE only install monitored alarm systems, if burglars see a JB-EYE bell box they know the system is a monitored intruder alarm and are likely to pass on to their next target.
All JB-EYE monitored intruder alarm systems provide additional signalling information showing which device within your premises has been activated, power loss, communication problems, personal attack alarms or tamper issues should the system be interfered with, allowing your key holder to make an informed decision as to the most appropriate response.
JB-EYE Security By Design
Design Criteria: Intruder systems should not be encumbering yet allow a high degree of protection. A survey of the premises includes a risk analysis of your property to determine a suitable level of protection.
JB-EYE have standardised all the equipment we install which has virtually eliminated the associated requirement for constant engineer and staff re-training, we pick the right product first time so we are in a position to fully support you.
Our monitored intruder alarm systems provided each user with a unique identity; this allows you to identify who and exactly what each person is permitted to do and when and where they have authority. This principle is of particular use to those with multiple premises.
Security Grading
Security Grades are defined in the standards document BS EN 50131-1 as follows:
- Grade 1 – Low risk: Intruders are expected to have little knowledge of the alarm system and may be restricted to a limited range of easily available tools.
- Grade 2 – Low to medium risk: Intruders are expected to have a little more knowledge of the alarm system and use a general range of tools and some specialist equipment.
- Grade 3 – Medium to high risk: Intruders are expected to be conversant with the alarm system and have a comprehensive range of tools and portable electronic equipment.
- Grade 4 – High risk: To be used when security takes precedence over all other factors. Intruders are expected to have the resources to plan an intrusion in detail and have a full range of equipment, including the means to substitute vital components in the alarm system.
The security grade and signalling type of your alarm system will usually be determined by a number of factors: the requirements of your insurance company, the type and location of your premises, personal preference and the value and portability of items you are protecting. Most commercial premises will require a Grade 2 or 3 system. All components of the intruder alarm system must be at least of the required grade for the system to comply with regulations. All JB-EYE monitored intruder alarm systems are installed to Grade 2 as a minimum with many components being Grade 3 as standard allowing for minimal additional work should a system require upgrading from Grade 2 to Grade 3.
