Burglar alarms in Linksfield

The suburb's prominent ridge and large, sloped stands create a key challenge for our burglar alarms in Linksfield. We design layered security to manage this difficult terrain, an approach that accounts for the significant elevation changes found on these properties.

Alarms for Linksfield's ridge properties and large, established stands

Linksfield is about 8 km south-east of Sandton City. Many Linksfield properties are set on the suburb's prominent ridge, or on large stands with significant elevation changes from the street to the house. This terrain, from Club Street up towards Linksfield Ridge, creates long, often sloped, perimeters with multiple levels. An intruder has more places to hide, and standard perimeter beams can be difficult to position effectively on retaining walls or steep banks.

Our approach in Linksfield is to create layers of security that account for the terrain. We use carefully positioned outdoor beams to cover the garden perimeter, selecting and angling them to follow the slope of the land without creating blind spots. This provides the first alert long before anyone reaches your doors or windows. For properties bordering the Harvey Nature Reserve, this outer layer is particularly important.

The security needs within Linksfield vary between the freestanding homes and properties inside estates like Royal View. For a house on its own stand, we focus on securing the entire perimeter boundary. Inside an estate, where a perimeter wall is already in place, we concentrate on layering the alarm from your private garden and patio inwards, backing up the estate's own security measures.

Questions from Linksfield

My garden is on a steep slope. Can outdoor beams still work reliably?

Yes. We select specific types of beams and use specialised brackets to mount them correctly on slopes and retaining walls. Tyson plans the placement on-site to make sure there are no gaps in coverage caused by the uneven ground.

We've just bought an older house in Linksfield. Can you use the existing alarm wiring?

In most cases, yes. If the wiring is still in good condition, we can often connect a modern alarm panel and new detectors to it. This saves on the cost and disruption of running new cables. We test the old wiring thoroughly as part of our assessment.

If something on your burglar alarm setup in Linksfield is not working as it should, the quickest fix starts with a call. We will ask a few questions, book a visit and quote in writing before any work starts.

What our alarm customers say

  • Tyson helped us separate the downstairs and upstairs areas of our alarm so we could arm part of the house at night. It has made the system much more practical for how we actually live.

  • We wanted outdoor beams but were worried about our pets setting them off. Tyson carefully planned the coverage and installed the beams so we still have good perimeter protection without constant false alarms.

    Charlene R.
  • One Point installed a complete alarm system at our new business premises including door contacts, motion detectors and panic buttons. Tyson explained the system clearly and the installation was very neat.
