Garrison alarm monitoring ensures that someone responsible 24/7 to react the moment your home alarm develops a problem or is activated. Your chosen response could be the ringing of a nominated keyholder or the dispatch of a guard response. It’s the type of support that gives you complete peace of mind.
Fire, power fails, telephone down, unauthorised entries, even burglary - all taken care of for you. Weekends, afterhours, holidays and even during the working week when the neighbourhood is empty.
Standard Alarm Monitoring
The moment your alarm has spotted a problem (fire, power fail) or has activated, a signal is immediately sent to the monitoring station. They then jump into action, contacting the people (keyholders) you have nominated to get the problem rectified. Keyholders could be friends, family, neighbours etc. |

Direct Dial
In the event of alarm activation (only), the alarm will make a direct call to a nominated cellphone or landline. If the line is busy, switched off or outside the coverage area this call will be lost, so direct dial is a very limited self monitoring facility but has no on going cost.
