Alarm systems installation

Alarm installation is a laborious and lengthy process. There are various regulatory documents that must be referred to when installing an alarm. Certain signaling objects must correspond to the place of their installation. Sensors that signal danger must be located at a certain distance from the suspected source of danger, and must be configured accordingly. The quality of the security system depends on the skill level of the installers.

The first stage of alarm installation is a project. At the project stage, the installation process is not provided, logical work is important here. The customer and the project contractor discuss all the necessary nuances of the future installation of the alarm system. This includes analysis of the distribution of sensors, determining the location of cable laying, the possibility of using wireless networks. The client's preferences, as well as the contractor's design solution, are checked in accordance with all standards and project documentation. Inspection of the installation site of the equipment should also be examined by a specialist.

The next stage is the drafting of an alarm system, already taking into account estimates, adjustments by a specialist. At this stage, the cost of the work of installers, consumables are already known. The next stage is practical and penultimate. All the developments that were present in the project are being implemented at the facility - networks are being laid, sensors, light and sound warning mechanisms are being installed. The object will be handed over to the client after inspection of the installed alarm system by a specialist, and making the necessary adjustments, taking into account the comments.

The quality criteria of a company that provides services for the development of alarm projects, as well as the installation of alarms, is warranty and post-warranty service. Coordination of actions, drawing up a project based on the opinions of specialists, for installers is also an essential indicator of the quality of work. The company that installs the alarm must provide a complete informative base of rules for the operation of equipment for people - employees of the enterprise, visitors or residents who use the facility. Quality control of equipment operation, the degree of deterioration of networks - engineering supervision, all this should be included in the price list of services provided.

Maintenance of fire alarms is a mandatory type of service that installation companies must provide. After installing and turning on the fire system, individual devices may not work correctly. If this situation occurs due to errors of the company, then it is obliged to provide warranty service - as a rule, the warranty service period is one year. In the future, fire safety systems, as well as their related ones, such as a fire extinguishing system, must undergo a thorough check on a monthly basis. For preventive adjustments and troubleshooting, it is advantageous to contract with one firm. A representative of the company will conduct a scheduled inspection at a set time. Fire alarm maintenance provides for a level of work, both in terms of external parameters and software settings, checking all joints and connections.

Inspection and service of security alarm systems is similar in terms of mandatory maintenance. Many companies that provide security system installation services check the operation of sensors, their serviceability and condition, the condition of the wiring, the capacity of power supplies, etc. However, security systems have a number of features, in comparison with fire. Alarm response time, passwords, system configuration - all this is carried out by specialists who, as a rule, carried out the installation of security equipment.

The price of installation of a security and fire alarm system depends directly on the complexity of the implementation and the volume of the project. The factors influencing the design are the natural dimensions of the object, the complexity of the security system, and additional conditions. Installation of a burglar alarm is not required by law. Then, as the presence of a fire alarm is a mandatory condition for business owners.

There are many companies that perform various types of alarm installation work. Since the purpose of the alarm is to notify of the danger that threatens the object, these companies must comply with certain standards. The provision of warranty and post-warranty service, the approval of the alarm project and much more is an indicator that the company is authorized to install the alarm.
