What to know about alarm systems for boarded-up houses
A boarded-up house looks abandoned, but inside there are still services, joinery, furniture and the property itself, which keeps its value. That abandoned look is precisely what makes it a target for burglary and squatting.
Why boarding up is not enough: an anti-squatter alarm
Bricking up the openings delays entry, but nobody finds out if someone breaks through. An alarm detects the intrusion as it happens and sets the response in motion.
An alarm with no mains power or internet
Boarded-up houses usually have their utilities disconnected. We install standalone systems with long-life batteries and mobile network communication.
Police notification
The alarm is connected to the Alarm Receiving Centre, which operates 24 hours a day and alerts the Police if the intrusion is confirmed.
