Burglar Alarm and Intrusion Detection Systems

A burglar alarm system should detect unauthorized entry while remaining practical for the people who use the property every day. Sonbert Security Systems designs intrusion detection for homes and businesses using the right combination of sensors, controls, communication and monitoring options.

Protection for Entry Points and Interior Areas


Depending on the property, an intrusion system may include door and window contacts, motion detection, glass-break detection, perimeter devices, keypads, mobile controls and professional monitoring. Equipment placement is based on the layout and how the building is used.

Residential and Commercial Alarm Systems


Homeowners may need straightforward protection and convenient controls, while businesses may need multiple users, scheduled access, larger coverage areas or integration with cameras and access control. We design the alarm system around the application instead of treating every property the same.
