Wireless Systems
It is not always possible to hard-wire a full security system in all properties, therefore Wireless Systems can be used as an alternative to a hard-wired system. They use Radio Frequency (RF) to transmit the signal from the wireless detector or keypad (RF Transmitter) to the receiver module at the control equipment.
Wireless Systems are still comprised of the same generic components as a hard-wired system, however, wireless keypads and detectors can be used in rooms which are difficult to cable, such as detached garages, sheds, boats, caravans etc.
Wireless Systems may also be used for aesthetic purposes; Fortress Security takes pride in our work and understands that clients would prefer not to see unsightly cables or trunking in their newly-refurbished home or property. We are able to identify during the initial site visit whether or not a Wireless System is required.
Fortress Security offers the option of hand-held wireless remotes when designing the system. These can be attached to a key-ring and can arm/disarm the system without the need of using a PIN number at the keypad. The remotes can also be used as a panic/duress, activating the sounders if pressed in a threatening situation, or just to open and close the automated garage door.
It is important to carry out annual maintenance on Wireless Systems to ensure full operation and to replace transmitter batteries.
