A monitored alarm alerts a response centre or keyholders when it is triggered, so someone acts even if you are away. Request a quote for monitoring with your new or existing alarm.

Monitored alarms: what to expect

Who gets alerted

Alerts can go to a monitoring centre, to you, or to nominated keyholders, depending on the package.

Verification

Some systems use camera or audio verification to confirm an alarm before anyone is called out.

Contracts and costs

Monitoring usually involves a monthly or annual fee, so check the length of any contract before agreeing.

Questions about monitored alarms

Is monitoring worth it for a home?

It can be useful if you are often away or live in an area where neighbours might not hear a siren.

Can I add monitoring later?

Often yes, if your alarm panel supports it. Ask the installer.
