Burglar alarms in Parkmore

Parkmore’s homes and complexes often have long boundaries along public green spaces like the spruit, which shapes our burglar alarm service. We create reliable early warning systems for these exposed perimeters and assess the inherited alarms common across the suburb’s varied properties.

Parkmore alarms: securing boundaries from George Lea Park to Benmore Road

Parkmore is about 2 km north-west of Sandton City. Many Parkmore properties, from freestanding homes to entire complexes, have a boundary along public spaces like George Lea Park or the Braamfontein Spruit. This creates a long, exposed perimeter that is different from a wall shared with a neighbour. Inside the suburb, older homes on stands with large trees present their own challenges for clear lines of sight, while sectional title units require a focus on ground-floor access points.

Our approach in Parkmore is to secure the property from the outside in, starting at the boundary wall. For homes facing the park or spruit, we use outdoor beams to create an early warning layer along the perimeter. Tyson plans the placement carefully to work around established trees and avoid triggers from movement on public paths, making sure the system is reliable and armed when you need it.

Because Parkmore contains both older houses and newer sectional title developments, we often find a mix of alarm systems. For a new homeowner, we test any inherited system and make sure the codes are changed for your safety. For body corporates managing shared perimeters, we can assess the entire boundary and provide a single plan to cover the scheme's specific risks.

Questions from Parkmore

My garden wall backs onto the Braamfontein Spruit. Will beams along it give false alarms from people walking past?

No. We mount and aim the beams to create a detection curtain just inside your property line. This way, they detect someone crossing the wall, not public activity on the other side.

We are trustees for a complex near Benmore Centre. Can you standardise the alarms for all our units?

Yes. We can survey the entire complex, test each unit's existing alarm, and provide a report and single quote to the body corporate for any repairs or upgrades needed.

Tell us what you have in Parkmore now and what is going wrong, and we will tell you plainly whether it needs a repair, an upgrade or a new burglar alarm system, then put the quote in writing.

What our alarm customers say

  • We needed a new alarm system after renovating an older property. Tyson helped us decide which areas genuinely needed protection and didn't try to oversell unnecessary equipment. Very happy with the result.

  • Our alarm hadn't been professionally checked since we bought the house. One Point serviced the entire system, found two sensors that weren't actually working and replaced them before they became a security problem.

    Elize M.
  • The alarm system in our complex guard room had become unreliable and nobody knew when it had last been serviced. One Point went through the system properly, replaced several worn components and restored it to working order.
