Basic burglary detection is accomplished by installing primary devices like sensor contacts on doors and windows accessible from ground level of a house or building and by installing a secondary line of defense with motion sensors or floor stress sensors. The door or window contacts will sense for opening while the motion or floor stress sensors will detect physical motion. The secondary line of defense provides back to primary line of defense.

Fire detection is accomplished by installing smoke and heat detectors thought an area. In a typical residence a basic system would consist of a detector on each floor while installing a heat detector in an attic or garage area. The fire portion of your system is always on and works independent of arming or disarming of the security system.

Carbon monoxide, also called CO, is sensed by installing a detector that measures CO concentration level over a period of time. CO sources in a typical home might include a blocked fire place chimney, hotwater heater or furnace vent that could cause a dangerous level of CO to build up.
