Your ADT monitored alarm connects you to our Alarm Receiving Centre via your telephone line. You are protected from intruders - and we can call on the emergency support you need from the Gardai, Fire Brigade, or your keyholders .

All systems have a control panel, usually with a keypad, and a series of detectors designed to operate within certain areas.

Smoke and fire detectors

You may have decided to have a smoke or fire detector linked to your system. This is designed to work even when the system is not set.

If you do not have a fire alarm, it can be added to your system in the future.

Audible warning device

Your system is designed to operate an internal sound alarm. An external sounder may be incorporated and includes a strobe light which will flash when the siren is activated, except where the alarm has been programmed not to sound.

The Code of Practise on Noise recommends that intruder alarm sounders are silenced after twenty minutes. Our policy is to comply with this statutory code, and the strobe light will also cease flashing.

Standby batteries

There are standby batteries in the system which are designed to keep it running for a minimum of 8 hours in the event of a power failure. Should an alarm condition occur or the siren sound during a power failure, the battery standby time will be reduced. Your system is connected to mains electricity. It is extremely dangerous to open the control panel or any power supply units.

We also have a 24-hour service bureau if you need any extra advice. Call our Service Bureau on 01 6205888.
