When a person wanted to detect smoke or fire, he may choose installing fire alarm system in his house. The most common used alarm system type is the burglar alarm system.
Burglar alarm systems vary too according to the size of the building. Also, the installation complexity of such may change depending on the number of entry points to be integrated. In addition, burglar alarms may also be monitored by the police or relayed to a telephone line.
Most burglar alarm systems are installed by professionals. In many cases, the company where one bought the alarm systems is the one responsible for the installation of the alarm system.
However, there are also alarm systems that can be installed by do-it-yourselfers. These alarm systems are being sold in kits. Every kit contains complete components that one needed for the installation.
Before installing an alarm systems take note of the following considerations for a proper installation:
Knowing how many entry points you have in your home will determine how many sensors you need to install. It can also be windows, fire exits, etc.
• The type of alarm system you brought. Is it a burglar alarm or a combination of a burglar alarm and a fire alarm?
• Note of the strategic place where you are going to put the control panel.
In installing the burglar alarm system, the very first component to be mounted must be the sounder or other known as the buzzer or bell. Most of the time, sounders are located in places that can easily be seen to warn off any burglar intending to break into the house. When the sounder is installed outside, one must make sure that it is mounted away from extreme heat or moisture.
After installing the sounder, the next component that must be installed is the sensors or the switches. Carefully install the sensors in edges of the doors and windows. Make sure that the magnet and the sensor is not too far from each other so that the sensor will have enough magnet reception. Do not put it otherwise too close to each other or else the magnet may sag to the sensor which can damage any of the component part.
Mount the wires neatly and integrate the rest of the components to the control panel. Test the system if it works properly by closing and opening the entry points. When there are components that do not work properly, make adjustments.
