Stratford gardens alarms: protecting individual homes behind the main estate perimeter
A home in Stratford Gardens is already protected by the estate's main perimeter security. An effective alarm system therefore focuses on the house itself and its private garden. The primary task is to detect a presence on your stand before anyone reaches a door or window, whether they have come over a garden wall from a neighbour or from one of the communal areas.
For this reason, we design the system from the outside in. We use outdoor beams to create a secure layer around your house, covering the patio and garden spaces. This gives a much earlier warning than sensors on windows and doors alone. We then create separate zones so you can arm this outer perimeter and the downstairs area at night, leaving you free to move around in the bedrooms.
Because these are freestanding homes, many residents have dogs that need access to the garden. We solve this by using specific pet-tolerant outdoor detectors and placing them strategically. This allows the alarm's most important perimeter layer to stay armed and effective, without being triggered by your pets moving around the property.
Everything we install and repair, and how a job runs from first call to handover, is on our alarm systems page.
Questions from Stratford Gardens
Can my home alarm report to the estate's guardhouse?
Yes, if the homeowners' association allows it. We can fit a communicator that signals both your private armed response company and the estate's security provider, according to their technical rules.
Will my dogs in the garden cause false alarms with outdoor beams?
No. We use pet-friendly beams and install them so that they ignore animals below a certain size. This means your garden can stay protected by the alarm while your dogs are outside.
