Different types of building security and alarm system

At Silex, we classify our systems in that way:

1. Simple building security and alarm systems: It’s somehow minimal system which only alerts unauthorized entries such as intruder happens with siren sound.

2. Building security and alarm systems with public telephone network (PTN) dialer: Such systems, in addition to siren sound, they alert unauthorized entries by calling stored contacts via phone line.

3. GSM-based building security and alarm systems: In addition to what two previous versions do, they will call and send text message via GSM module and SIM card. Also, using these systems, you can charge SIM card, making arm and disarm whole system, and so on. Currently, this sort of systems are among the newest and most commonly used of such equipment.
