24 hour security presence
Police, insurers and security specialists all agree that the greatest improvement you can make to your home security is to link your security system to an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) that can inform the local Police if an intrusion takes place. The knowledge that the Police can be on the scene within minutes is reassuring.
dsc security know a fast response is crucial, because:
- Intruders have less time to cause loss or damage
- Help can quickly arrive if a Hold-Up Device is activated
- By nominating friends, family or colleagues to act as key holders, the ARC know who is available to make sure your property is secured.
Qualifying for Police Response
Following the latest guidelines issued by the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO), many police forces will not attend alarms from non-monitored systems unless there's also first hand evidence of a crime, whether from an owner or a member of the public phoning in.
The Police will attend an alarm signal routed via an Alarm Receiving Centre, from a monitored alarm that qualifies for Police Response.
