Wireless Home Security Alarm Systems – How Do They Work?

During the previous years, a wired home security alarm system required heavy installation that involved drilling holes in the walls and pulling so many wires to the windows and doors. This heavy installation resulted in moving some furniture inside the house. Also, cleaning up all the messes left by the installer was an annoying task.

People want to use wireless technology
With the existence of wireless home security alarm systems, homeowners these days prefer to install them over wired systems due to their simple installation and ease of maintenance. Installing these wireless systems becomes almost as easy as plugging in a phone and programming a TV remote.

Simple installation
The wireless home security alarm system typically requires the use of a phone jack and an electrical outlet to plug in the system’s control panel before it can be connected to the phone. There are also systems with a battery-powered control panel. The computerized system can be pre-programmed to connect with up to four phone numbers.

No monthly fees required
The system does not require monitoring by any home monitoring company and owners do not need to pay service fees. There is no need for the help of a professional installer when installing the wireless home security alarm system. When the entire system is in place, it begins monitoring your windows and doors and is now ready to detect irregular movements.

When activated, it alerts you and your neighbors.
When the wireless home security alarm system is activated, it creates a very loud siren sound and the pre-programmed emergency numbers are automatically dialed so that people who have those phone numbers are alerted that the system has just been activated. They can listen to the noise in the home to decide whether or not to call law enforcement authorities to respond to the system’s alert signal.

No wires, cables and cords
The main feature of the wireless security system is that it is not necessary to use wires or cables to connect all the alarms, connectors, sensors and control panel. This gives you the freedom to install the components anywhere in the house. The sensors can be discreetly placed in various areas of the house without the unsightly cables. You can have unlimited placement of system components and not just confine them to the corner of the ceiling and areas that are easily accessible by cables.
