24 hour security presence - for your Home Security
An Garda Siochana, insurers and security specialists all agree that the greatest improvement you can make to your home security is to link your security system to an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) that can inform the local Gardái if an intrusion takes place. The knowledge that the Gardái can be on the scene within minutes is reassuring.
Emergency help within minutes
A traditional burglar alarm is usually 'audible only', the noise of its bell or siren may scare off criminals but it cannot ensure a response from the emergency services, or arrange for someone to attend your property and secure your home afterwards. Only a monitored alarm can do this.
How does monitoring work?

If your alarm is activated we will know about it straight away. What's more, you're not just protected from burglars. We can help you obtain emergency support from the emergency services or your keyholders.
More than just a burglar alarm
Fire detectors can also be added to your system, with a monitored system your fire detector is active and monitored 24 hours a day, even if your intruder alarm is not set. You can also install a personal attack device (panic button) enabling you to summon help if you are attacked at home by secretly alerting our Alarm Receiving Centre

Qualifying for Garda Response
Following the latest guidelines issued by the Garda Intruder Alarm Policy visit website wwwgarda.ie, the Gardái will not attend alarms from non-monitored systems unless there's also first hand evidence of a crime, whether from a owner or a member of the public phoning in.
The Gardái will attend an alarm signal routed via the ADT Alarm Receiving Centre, from a monitored alarm that qualifies for Garda Response. |
