Before You Request Quotes in Big Bay
- Salt air. Outdoor detectors, beams and siren housings near the sea corrode faster. Ask for weather-rated equipment and regular cleaning.
- Flats and apartments. A small wireless system with a door contact, one or two detectors and app alerts suits most flats. Check body corporate rules before fitting anything to common walls or balconies.
- Holiday lets. Give guests a separate code or app user that you can remove after checkout, and make sure someone can respond while the home is empty.
- Response coverage. Not every company covers every street. Ask each one to confirm your address and how many vehicles patrol nearby.
- Power cuts. Ask how long the panel, communicator and outdoor beams run on the backup battery, and how the system reports a power failure to you or the control room.
- Registration. Ask installers and response companies for their PSIRA registration.
