Benefits

• Early Detection: Detects break-in attempts at the point of impact, alerting the system before the intruder enters the premises.
• Easy Installation: The wireless design eliminates the need for chasing wires into walls or around window frames.
• Broad Coverage: A single acoustic detector can often cover multiple panes of glass within a room (depending on room acoustics and layout), offering a cost-effective alternative to individual vibration sensors.
• Versatile Protection: Ideal for protecting large glazed areas where standard magnetic contacts cannot detect glass breakage (e.g., fixed picture windows).

Ideal Applications

• Conservatories: Perfect for rooms with extensive glazing where wiring is difficult.
• Retail Display Windows: Protects shop fronts from “smash and grab” attempts.
• Living Rooms with Patio Doors: Adds an extra layer of security to vulnerable rear entry points.
• Commercial Offices: Ideal for ground-floor offices with large glass panes.
