WirelessAlarmStore.com Wireless Home Security, Alarm Systems, and more

Within the pst few years technology has offered up many great solutions for the home such as home automation products and other gadgets to control everything from heating and AC to the kitchen stove. One of the newest arrivals to this growing market is the wireless security system. Companies like Ademco and GE are among the innovative companies who realize that consumer demands for do-it-yourself (DIY) alarm systems are here to stay.

Unlike the older wired security systems, the new wireless security systems have no cumbersome wiring, crawling under the house, and any real drilling of holes depending on which wireless alarm system you choose. The wireless security systems mean that, for the most part, they are "cut-proof" to burglars (although the telephone wires can still be severed). No wires also mean that rodents can't chew through them, they can't be accidentally pulled out, or perhaps even nailed through if you are hanging pictures or making home improvements that require drilling into walls. The wireless security system can also be positioned in more places rather than in a closet or behind another interior closed door. I have my GE Simon located on our kitchen wall with only a couple of wall screws and only two wires from the whole system - one being the phone wire and the other the AC power. It doesn't get any more simple than that for an installation!

The many uses of wireless technology with alarm systems can be seen for many driveway alarms, window or door alarms, car/auto alarms, and wireless motion sensors and security cameras. Most of the sensors used in wireless security systems use infrared, acoustic sensors or even dual technology sensors to send nth signal back to the base unit. Some other wireless security systems can even attach to lights in your home or office to switch them off or on at intervals that you program into the system. Or, program a wireless motion sensor to light in a home or office to detect motion if someone enters a room.

Recent numbers show that the new wireless security systems are edging up to about half of all home security system purchases. If you live in a home where you do not have access to the crawl space, you are not extremely technical as far as wiring (since the hardwired systems come with an average of 8-20 wires depending on the particular security system), or like to do it yourself, then a wireless security system is the way to go. And, the best thing about any wireless system is that you can easily take it with you when/if you ever move. Try doing that with a security system monitored by an ADT, CPI, or Brinks, where most likely the system is only programmed to work with their monitoring solutions.
