64 • SECURITYSYSTEMS Next generation smart home protection from Burg-Wächter » » THE NEW INNOVATIVE BURGprotect Wireless Home Alarm offers easy to install smart security and remote notification via an app for early warning in the event of a break in, fire or flooding. Contrary to popular belief, most burglaries happen during the day whilst the home owner is out. This, combined with the increasing adoption of smart technology, means locksmiths are ideally placed to make the most of the growing customer demand for smart home alarm and remote monitoring systems. With over 100 years in the security industry, Burg-Wächter is known for quality, innovative security solutions. Newly launched into the UK & Ireland, the BURGprotect wireless alarm offers next generation technology in an easy to install and control security system for the home. Lying at the heart of the BURGprotect system, the central control unit with built in sounder, wirelessly connects to up to 200 accessories including movement, contact, smoke, vibration and water sensors as well as external sirens and remote controls. This comprehensive yet scalable system allows customers to build a tailored solution that matches their needs and can be easily expanded to meet future requirements. What sets BURGprotect apart from the competition is the innovative three methods of connecting to the internet via LAN, WiFi and sim card. Together with the central control unit’s 8 hours of battery backup, this ensures that the user is always aware of what is happening at home, even if there is a power cut or loss of broadband connection. The Set 2200 starter kit includes Central Control Unit with built in sounder, two wireless magnetic door contacts, a PIR wireless motion sensor and a remote control key fob to arm & disarm the alarm. An outdoor weatherproof siren can be added and provides an additional deterrent, whilst a wall mounted keypad offers a traditional way to arm/disarm the alarm. KEEPING CUSTOMERS ‘APPY BURGprotect is setup and controlled via the free BURGprotect app which also offers the convenience of remote access and notifications. A simple scan of a QR code on the accessory is all it takes to add each component to the system. The app has recently been updated to become an even smarter security solution, as it now integrates with Burg- Wächter’s BURGcam video camera system. Video surveillance systems are an increasingly popular part of customers’ security plans, used as both a visual deterrent and for gathering vital evidence. Simple to install, the BURGcam Wi-Fi range offers a choice of outdoor zoom, dome, bullet and indoor cameras. The new integrated LOCKSMITHJOURNAL.CO.UK | MAY/JUN 2019 Sponsored by Mul-T-Lock BURGprotect app provides a real-time monitoring feed on smartphones, tablets and PCs.
