False alarms are more than just a nuisance. Police have become inundated with false alarm calls causing their response times to increase and resulting in most departments charging fines if they attend and find no intrusion.
False alarms also cost companies productivity. An employee or owner of a company who is woken up in the middle of the night to deal with an alarm that is not confirmed is not as effective as they would have been had they gotten a full night’s sleep, not to mention the potential for personal injury or overtime wages being paid out.
At Alarmtron we have eliminated false alarms.
With a VISUALLY verified alarm system our monitoring station operators can connect to your site upon receiving an alarm and gain access to full live video. We can SEE what triggered the alarm and respond accordingly. This means a higher priority dispatch from the police because the alarm is verified.
Another useful benefit of a visually verified alarm system is that during the work day the system is yours to control. Our customers have used this feature to verify incorrect deliveries from shipping companies, identify employees who may be involved in internal theft, and even something as simple as discover where they set something down if they are having trouble finding it. We can even set up the system so that you can connect from home or abroad if you are out of the office regularly, but still want to keep up with what is going on.
In this arrest Alarmtron aides the police in capturing two thieves who stole a truck, crashed it into the empty field beside one of our customers, and decided to try and hide out in their compound until the police were gone. That was a bad idea on their part because our operator spotted them on camera and dispatched the police immediately. We don’t know if they were trying to obtain another vehicle from inside the yard or just wait out the police, but we do know that they were inside a compound monitored by Alarmtron, and now they’re in custody.
Thanks to our visually verified alarm system, Alarmtron has captured criminals at this compound on more than one occasion and others just like it, proving that visually verified alarms are the way of the future, or the present in Alarmtron’s case.

In this video, we see a soon-to-be arrested intruder walking through a compound that is monitored by Alarmtron. He dips under some pipes and makes his way to the other side of the fence in an attempt to hide from the approaching police officer. While in the field outside the compound, he can be seen burying the stolen property and crouching to avoid being spotted, but he cannot hide from Alarmtron’s cameras and, more importantly, the central station dispatcher who is viewing the scene live and quickly informs the police of the intruder’s location.
When confronted the thief has no stolen goods in his possession and tries to convince the officer he was only out for a walk. However, Alarmtron’s video not only gives the police the evidence they need to make an arrest, but also gives our client the ability to recover their stolen merchandise.
