Fourways gardens alarms: securing your home inside the estate walls
Fourways Gardens is about 13 km north-west of Sandton City. A home in Fourways Gardens has two layers of security: the estate's perimeter and the alarm on the property itself. The important points to protect are the private garden, patio, and windows. An alarm that only triggers when a door opens gives an intruder too much time on the stand, whether it's a freestanding home on a road like Hampton Road or a cluster unit backing onto a neighbour.
Our approach is to create a second perimeter around your home. We use outdoor beams to cover the garden, providing a warning before anyone reaches the building. We then secure the house with contacts on accessible doors and windows. This allows the system to be zoned, so you can arm the outside at night while moving freely inside, complementing the estate's own security.
As one of the area's first large estates, many Fourways Gardens homes have older alarm systems that new owners inherit. A key first step for a new resident is to have this system professionally checked. Tyson can assess the panel, test all detectors, and reset the user codes for your family, making sure the alarm you've inherited is one you can trust.
Everything we install and repair, and how a job runs from first call to handover, is on our alarm systems page.
Questions from Fourways Gardens
I've just bought a house in Fourways Gardens. Can you check the old alarm system?
Yes. We can test the entire system, replace the backup battery, and change all the codes. We will give you a clear report on its condition and recommend any necessary repairs or upgrades.
Can my alarm alert the estate's security guards as well as my armed response company?
Often, yes. We can check if your system is compatible and if the homeowners' association allows for it. We can then install the correct communicator to signal both your private response company and the estate's control room.
