Burglary protection is designed to prevent unauthorised entry into buildings, for example. Examples of burglary protection are window locks, burglar-resistant roller shutters, locking cylinders or a burglar alarm system. Further burglary protection can be provided by motion detectors and glass breakage sensors. No burglary protection is impregnable. However, several sensible measures can stop the perpetrators for a certain period of time. This time is called the resistance time. Each burglary protection measure is categorised in a resistance class.<\/p>\n
If an intrusion is registered by a detector or sensor, a silent alarm is usually triggered first. This silent alarm is received by an emergency call and service control centre, NSL for short. Emergency call and service control centres are usually operated by Security services<\/a> operated for the Object protection<\/a> or Site security<\/a> individual buildings or as Territory control<\/a> are responsible for entire residential areas. A check is made to see whether this could be a false alarm. If there is any doubt, a driver from the security service is alerted and tasked with travelling to the property. If several detectors go off at the same time, the police are automatically informed. If the patrol driver discovers a break-in or attempted break-in on site, the police are called in in any case. The silent alarm provides early information without the perpetrator(s) being informed. This often leads to the perpetrators being caught, as they are not alarmed by the arrival of the police. They feel a false sense of security.<\/p>\n Unlike silent alarms, there are also alarm systems that work with audible and visual alarms. In addition to alerting the security service or the police, the alarm is triggered by a siren. This alarm is very loud. In addition to the alarm, warning lights can also signal a break-in. These measures primarily serve as a deterrent. Perpetrators often refrain from breaking in if security measures can be recognised from the outside. This is referred to as prevention measures. In addition, perpetrators stop trying to break in when sirens or alarms sound. In case of doubt, this can protect your belongings from burglars. However, it makes it more difficult to catch them.<\/p>","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-5259","encyclopedia","type-encyclopedia","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nAudible and visual alarm<\/h3>\n
