Before You Request Quotes in Tokai
- Baboons. City of Cape Town baboon programme reports record baboons entering homes here, including through ceilings and window frames. Ask installers about detection in roof spaces and contacts on windows, and how outdoor detectors handle animals.
- Big gardens. Trees and shrubs close to beams or outdoor detectors cause false alarms. Plan for trimming and ask about detector types suited to planted gardens.
- Pets. Dogs and cats inside at night need pet-tolerant detectors and careful placement. Tell installers the size and number of animals.
- Response area. Armed response is sold by area. Ask each company to confirm your street is inside its response zone before you sign.
- 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.
