Unfortunately, there has always been crime. And today she has not gone anywhere. Life is now such that the possibility of robbing a home cannot be ruled out. Therefore, you should take care of your safety, your household and your property in advance. One of the effective means of protection is the panic button. Installing it will not only make you feel more secure, but also know that at your first signal, a rapid response team will come to you.
What is a panic button?
This name refers to an element of the alarm system, the purpose of which is to transmit an alarm signal from the scene to a remote control panel. On the received signal, a rapid response team leaves.
How does the panic button work?
There are various variants of the panic button. She canbe manual, foot or even remote. For home use, hand or foot options are best suited. They are usually mounted next to the front door so that when the door is opened, a task force can be called if someone tries to break in. Remote options are more used in offices, where remote controls are issued to staff for working hours. But the principle of operation for all of them is approximately the same. Mechanical action on the button opens (sometimes, on the contrary, closes) the electrical circuit, after which the control panel transmits a signal to the monitoring console.
Benefits of the panic button
- Speed of call. If you call the police by phone, you must first pick up the phone, dial the number, and then tell the operator about what happened and give the address where everything is happening. This takes a very long time, especially given that the count can only go by seconds. The alarm button allows you to call the outfit much faster.
- Easy to use. This advantage is closely related to the previous one. To call the task force, you only need to press a button and do not need to dial a number or report the incident and details.
- Quick response. When a signal arrives at the central control panel, an order is immediately sent to the place from which it was received.
- Constant monitoring. The control panel and button are constantly in working order, in standby mode - day and night.
- Easy operation. The button does not interfere and does not attract attention. There is no need to check and adjust it, as the service personnel monitors this.
How much does a panic button cost?
The price of this security tool is calculated taking into account the cost of both the equipment itself and maintenance. The basic set of equipment includes a panic button, a control panel and consumables. Its cost varies greatly depending on the manufacturer, and starts from the amount of 7000 rubles. But that's just the hardware. Every month you need to pay a subscription fee for maintenance, which includes system monitoring, signal response, technical support and service.
