If you already have a burglar alarm you'll find the company will install extra security systems such as cameras etc. For peace of mind we always have ours serviced every year.
We bought a pack with four cameras, made by Swann. It’s been working fine for quite a few years. It’s primarily to watch the wildlife in the garden. The wires are run through the walls, not all that tidily, but it means we can move a couple of the cameras to watch different bits of the garden at night, which is handy. I have to pop round regularly with the feather duster on the window cleaning pole to remove the spiders webs. Very scary on film when the ‘monster spider’ climbs across the camera! We had a single wireless camera some years ago, but we found it very prone to interference and it wasn’t very successful. we fitted it ourselves but OH is both tech savvy, and happy to drill holes in walls. A friend who installed a system was told by the local police that he didn’t need permission for it, as long as it was on his property. Only if it did view the footpath outside, would he need to put up a sign stating that the area was under surveillance.
By the way, I've always wondered how people live with a security system and still have a dog. That is, the dog runs all the time and the security system, in theory, should trigger a reaction to this. Or if the dog barks, should the alarm go off? I just heard about Ajax and wanted to install this security system, but I have two dogs at home and I do not know what to do. Will the security system react to their movements? Maybe you can recommend me some good systems so that there are definitely no problems with this.
Probably both of us @pansyface 😉 ... I noticed @bernardandrews661 yesterday making random posts yesterday ... trying to be generous I wondered if maybe he’s using forums for practising his written English ... 🤔... on the other hand ... it is a Friday ...
