A monitored home alarm system is the best way
to protect your family, your home, and your valuables.
For over forty years, Citadel Security has been designing and installing specialty burglary and fire alarms to fit our customers individual needs.
Wireless Sensors
Information from alarm sensors must be conveyed to the alarm control panel. With a wireless system, a wireless transmitter relays that information to the control panel, bolstering your first line of defense while also being aesthetically pleasing.
Wireless transmitters contain a battery which needs to be changed every few years. The keypad will display any low battery conditions plenty in advance, and instructional videos on changing sensor batteries can be found on our Changing Batteries support page.
Pet-Immune Motion Detectors
Motion detectors have the ability to discriminate between a person and a small pet. If the pet is 40 pounds or less, your pet can roam freely around the house with the motion detector actively part of the armed alarm system.
Choices for Interior Protection
In the event that something in your home prevents the installation of motion detectors (such as a large animal), concealed wireless transmitters can be installed to help guard your most valued assets. Asset protection devices are ideal for protecting jewelry boxes and valuable drawers, paintings, flatscreen tv's, china cabinets and displayed collectables.
Remote Control Options
These handy devices, known as "keyfobs", fit on your keychain. They can arm or disarm your alarm system, turn on lights, or serve as a panic button to summon Citadel's central station. They offer confidence for the time span between exiting a parked car to closing the front door.
While our sales representatives will be happy to go over all your options during your free quote appointment, here are some of the specific operating features available in a Citadel system:
