ABOUT INTRUDER ALARM SYSTEMS 

About Our Control Panels

Our Napco Range of Control Panels caters for both Wireless and Hardwire Systems. In both categories, Wireless & Hardwire Systems, the control Panel has to be mounted, permanently fixed and Hardwire to the ESB supply as does any Warning and Signaling Equipment (the external and internal alarm sounder, and the connecting of a telephone line for the mounting of the system etc.).
See "What is" Wireless and Hardwire below.

The Control Panel receives its information in one of two ways from the detection devices:

Wireless (relies on radio signals from the radio transmitters, which are interconnected with the detection devices). Hardwire (cable is used to interconnect the control panel with the detection devices which give warning of the presence of an intruder or hazard).

Electric Locking
The choice of electric locking is potentially the weak link in any access control system, because if the door hardware is not secure enough then a sizeable investment in an access control system can have little or no actual security.
