36% of burglaries occur in properties with unlocked doors and windows

Crime can hardly be predicted. It can happen anytime, anywhere. And we can never be sure that we are out of harm's way… not even in our own homes.
Alarm systems are one of the best mechanisms used to fight crime, particularly burglary. Today, safety alarms are manufactured in electronic forms. Samples of these include easy-to-install door sensors, and sophisticated wireless home security systems.
Burglar alarm systems can also be used for multiple purposes as well. These other functions include, fire, safety alarms, as well as intrusion. These can also be used simultaneously.
SAS Fire & Security Systems offer several kinds of burglar alarm systems based on area of coverage as well as the specific needs of the consumer or homeowner, from smaller, self-contained noisemakers for a small home, to a more sophisticated, multi-zoned system with colour-coded computer monitor outputs.
If you want to avail of professional services with your home alarm system, you can hire a SAS999 to offer a free consultation. Using special computers and phone lines, as well as competent staff, SAS999 looks after the security system of homes. We also coordinate with the appropriate authorities in case of security emergencies.
Burglaries on the Increase.
Multivariate analysis (logistic regression) carried out on the 2008/09 BCS shows that after the influence of other characteristics is taken into account, the factors most strongly independently associated with higher risk of burglary are:
• having less than ‘basic’ home security;
• living in an urban area; and
• HRP not being aged 55 years or over.
The only other characteristic included in the model that was found to be (albeit weakly) independently associated with risk of burglary was household income. Overall, this model accounted for nine per cent of the variation in the risk of being a victim of burglary (data not shown).
