Security alarms are one of the most crucial parts of any home or business security setup. As well as being a handy deterrent, security alarm systems Brisbane alert you to what’s going on in your home or commercial environment so you can take immediate and appropriate action. They offer increased protection, and peace of mind, whether you are on the premises or not.
The importance of a quality alarm system
At Pacific Security Group we know the value of a high quality alarm system. Not only can they prevent crime and other detrimental conditions, but there’s nothing quite like the sound of a loud, high pitched sound to stop intruders in their tracks and draw attention to your property from neighbours and people in the area.
Security Alarm Systems Brisbane is an integrated system of components, including a central control panel, sensors, and sirens, which work together to secure your premises.
In today’s modern alarm systems, security sensors can be used to detect or alert of such things as:
- Movement and criminal activity – you can arm various perimeters or zones whilst you sleep or work safely inside.
- Environmental dangers including fire and carbon monoxide
- Environmental changes such as increases in temperature and moisture that could affect stock or the general safety of your site.
- The need for urgent medical assistance with add-on alert pendants
- Those experiencing duress, panic or hold-up
A disorienting, high-decibel siren will be triggered when it detects any of the above. When it comes to crime, this siren powerfully draws attention and distracts, limiting time on site and therefore reducing mess or theft in your home or business. When an alarm system is triggered, it will alert yourself and our control room if you have Back to Base monitoring.
At Pacific Security Group we work with pet friendly devices and have experience in harsh environments such as factories.

Deter
The mere presence of an alarm (or even the yard sign or window stickers that advertise you have an alarm system installed) can prevent you from becoming a victim of a break-in altogether. For many criminals, seeing evidence of a home or business security system is enough to dissuade them from attempting that particular property
Disorientate/ Distract
The volume and pitch of the sirens ‘alarm’ is designed to cause confusion and distract intruders from what they’re doing. As a result, they’ll escape with fewer – or, better yet, none – of your possessions and less damage.
Declare & Determine
Your system can alert you, family members and/or our monitoring team, that a potential incident is taking place. It also draws attention to your premises. All devices on an alarm system are programmed as an identifiable zone so when the alarm is triggered you can determine where the intruder entered from and where they’re likely to be. Or in the case of a panic or duress alarm, where the person may be located. This works well in both small and large commercial sites particularly if you have several smoke detectors. The device will send its location name to the control room.
Document
The system can record a date and time of the alarm event as well as the ‘zone’’ accessed. Integrate your alarm system with cameras and even access control to gain solid footage so you can pass it on to authorities to help bring criminals to justice and support safer communities. It acts as evidence in the case of theft to your local police and your insurance company, possibly reducing your insurance premiums

Some Specific Business Applications

- Minimise staff loose attendance times by obtaining reports showing personnel sign on and sign off times by either the disarm/arm feature or via an integrated access point with swipe cards all within the one alarm system.
- Alarms can be monitored for “late to close” with our control room so if your staff do not arm by a certain time, the after hours persons will be notified.
- Alarm systems can be set up for auto arming in case your staff forget to arm of a night.
- Some alarms come with access control so you can control staff access to certain areas of your building at certain times and be alerted for any out of hours attendances using a swipe card or app system. Find out more about Access Control here.

Specific Types of Alarm Systems
PANIC OR DURESS PENDANTS
Panic or duress pendants can be installed under counters, reception desks, warehouses and/or wirelessly on the person so if the end user is working alone and is held up or requires immediate assistance, an instruction to send patrol or police can be nominated. Scenarios such as in medical centers (uncontrollable patients), fuel stations/jewelry stores or bottle shops (hold ups), can send a silent alarm to our control room to request police be sent to site. The silent alarm does not inflate the intense situation but ensures help is on the way
MEDICAL BUTTONS/PENDANTS
Medical buttons/pendants can be hard fixed to a location in the premise, or a wireless pendant or wristband can be worn on the person and pressed in the event of a medical emergency. Our operators can respond by alerting a family member, neighbor, ambulance or police to attend site. We can even arrange a lockbox on site with a spare key with instructions to emergency services on how to enter the premise if there is a man down medical emergency.
GLASS BREAKS
Glass Breaks are fitted near large glass window panes so if someone tries to smash into the site via the window, the piercing noise will alert authorities for attendance. This can stop the person from the first blow in continuing the process if the alarms begin to sound and authorities have been notified.
SMOKE DETECTION ALARMS
Smoke Detection can alert our control room or your self-monitoring app for further action if you are not in the premise to send fire brigade. It is good to be aware though that a false alarm activation attended to by the Fire Department will incur a large fee of
approx. $1500 (as of Dec 2022).
TEMPERATURE GAUGES
Temperature gauges can be used on commercial fridges for medicines, food product, and hazardous waste products. Can also be used on wine cellars to notify the end user if the median room temperature drops below a certain degree.
SHOCK SENSORS
These detect vibration such as on safes, and coming via walls or floor boards.

I’ve been a customer of Pacific Security for over 13 years and their customer service just keeps getting better. I moved my alarm & back to base monitoring over from [another provider] and haven’t looked back. I get a phone call from a real person for all my alarm events. I get to control if they send a patrol to check on my home. If I miss their call they send me an SMS as a back up & I can control my alarm with my mobile phone. These guys are the real deal. They know their game. If you want good support and old fashioned service don’t look anywhere else.
