You all leave to go to dinner, and your friend is locking up. And one of the locks is not even in the door. What is going on? Your friend probably has a home security alarm to protect the house while it’s empty or when the occupants are asleep. If you are interested in learning more about these alarm systems, the National Bureau of Standards has anew pamph let that tells you about the different types and methods of reporting a break-in, approximate costs, and in stallation and maintenance. For your copy of Home Security Alarms, send a postcard to the Consumer Information Center, Dept. 676 E. Pueblo. Colorado 81009. There are three parts to security alarms: the de tectors or sensors, the control unit, and the actual alarm. The sensor detects the break-in. The most frequently used sensors are switch sensors, made up of two parts with a magnetic connection. When a window or door is opened, it breaks the magnetic connec tion and triggers the alarm. These should be used on all windows and doors that can be reached from the ground, and on windows and balcony doors that can be reached from trees. Pressure mat detectors are hidden under carpets or rugs in a frequently used corridor or near items of value. When someone steps on the mat, the alarm sounds. Ultrasonic motion detect ors fill the room with sound wave too high for most people to hear. Any move ment in the room disturbs the wave pattern and triggers the alarm. Some people and most animals are bothered by the high-pitched sounds, so an in-home demonstration before you buy is wise. The last type is the infrared photoelectric sen sor. It works like an electric eye with an invisible light beam. When the beam is broken, the alarm sounds. The control unit is the heart of the system. It activates the system either by an indoor switch or an outdoor key. It receives the information that a sensor has been disturbed and triggers the alarm. Devices called •panic buttons” can be connected to the control unit. They allow you to activate the alarm by pushing a button and are usually placed inside the front door or in the bedroom. Finally the alarm. The local alarm is a loud horn, or h< 11. or a flashing light, or a combination, and it is placed high up on your house. Its effectiveness depends on the intruder being frightened away, on you being warned if you are home, or on your neighbors calling the police if you're not home. The remote alarm alerts a location away from your home (such as the police station, a private security company, or someone you know), and can be combined with a local alarm. If you have a remote system, do not direct the alarm to the local police department unless you have permission first. Some of the older models triggered so many false alarms that police departments banned their use without prior approval. What is one of the best ways to prevent an intruder? Install solid doors with good deadbolt locks and windows with key locks.
