Vibration sensors, often called “Shock Sensors,” are a fantastic layer of defense that we frequently recommend for properties in East Renfrewshire with large glass areas or bi-fold doors. Unlike standard door contacts that only trigger when a door is opened, a vibration sensor is mounted directly onto the frame or glass. It is designed to detect the high-frequency vibrations caused by someone attempting to pry open a window, use a crowbar on a door, or even break the glass.
The major benefit for a homeowner in Glasgow or Renfrewshire is that the alarm sounds before the intruder actually gains entry into the house. By detecting the initial attack, the loud siren and your phone alerts are triggered while the burglar is still outside, which almost always causes them to flee before they can do any internal damage or steal valuables. At Safe AR Solutions, we carefully calibrate these sensors so they aren’t triggered by heavy rain or a passing bus in a busy Glasgow street, but remain highly sensitive to a forced attack. It’s a proactive way to ensure your home in Central Scotland remains a fortress that stops criminals at the perimeter.
