Driveway alarms are becoming a necessary factor
in home security as well as to let
you know when guests are arriving. There are
many acessories from telephone
dialers, for added security, to lights and
bells to assist you when the alarm is first activated.
Have you ever wondered how to choose a
driveway alarm?
Here are the questions you need to ask to aid
you in your choice of the CORRECT driveway alarm for your
specific needs. Only an experienced professional will be
able to help you in suggesting which driveway alarm will
meet your needs by answering the following questions.
What is the maximum transmission distance
that you will need to meet your needs?
What type of driveway alarm are you searching
for? A hose that a car or other heavy vehicle may run over?
A magnetic probe that may be hidden and will only detect
metallic vehicles? Or a wireless beam that will detect cars
as well as people and animals?
Are there any trees between the location of
the transmitter and receiver ? If so are the trees a dense
forest or sparse or somewhere in between? The denser the
forest the less the transmission distance.
Are there hills between the location of the
transmitter and receiver ?
What is the construction of your home? - Is
it a mobile home, does it have aluminum or steel siding, is
it constructed of stucco, does it have paper backed
insulation or foil insulation?
Are there transformers nearby - pad mounted
or pole mounted may interfere with the
transmission/reception of the signal
