To ensure you have adequate and effective home security that keeps your family, loved ones & your investments safe, a layered approach to securing your property needs to be established. This will provide an early detection system that will alert you to the presence of any unwanted intruders. Installing a layered security system is a necessity for each client, as the faster you are able to establish the presence of an intruder, before they get the opportunity to break your window or force open your gate, the more time you have to alert our control centre to dispatch an armed response officer and get your family to safety.

Deters crime: A recent study showed as the number of home security systems increased in an area, the number of residential robberies decreased in that area, even for people who didn’t have their own security system. Having a security system not only protects you, but helps your neighbourhood be a safer place for everyone.

Mzansi Fire and Security offers the latest generation of industry-leading security systems that offer powerful advances in intruder detection, video management, smart card applications, biometric integration and open IT systems.

These protective layers will include:

• Outdoor detectors: Weatherproof infrared detectors, mounted on building walls to detect movement within a 90 degree angle range, if triggered it will sound the security alarm system and alert the property owners as well as our control room.
• Point to Point beams: Supplied in pairs, a transmitter and receiver, which send an invisible continual pulsed beam. It is usually installed across the driveway of a property.
• Strip beams: 4 strips of receivers and transmitters that detect movement and send an alarm signal if the pulse is broken due to a intruder or object reaching / moving in the protective layer. This usually mounted on walls of a house on either side of a window.

Electric fencing is the underdog of crime prevention measures that can be employed. It consists of a varying number of strands of electric wires, which carry high-voltage electric pulses. If the electric fence is touched, it delivers a non-lethal but extremely powerful shock to any intruder. Electric fences are regulated by municipal bylaws and we install ours in strict adherence to these regulations, to ensure they keep your family, property & assets safe and to keep criminals out.

If you have electric fencing on your perimeter, it should be zoned and connected to your home security system so that any tampering on the fence line will result in an alarm activation.

Benefits of choosing an electric fence as a layer to your security:

• A physical barrier
• A psychological barrier
• An early detection system

Tactical Response Units are positioned geographically according to crime statistics.
