A Driveway Alarm: Saving Children's Lives
Integrating a driveway alarm into your home security does more than alert you when someone approaches your home; it can save your children. Miranda Hunter of Shreveport, LA, knows the importance of a driveway alarm better than anyone.
On July Fourth, Miranda and her two-year-old twin sons were meeting her husband for a picnic and to watch the annual fireworks show. Half way to the park, Miranda realized she had forgotten the boys' diaper bag, so she turned around and went back to the house. Instead of dealing with the task of taking the boys out of their car seats, Miranda simply ran into the house by her self to grab the bag, leaving the keys in the side door.
Driveway Alarm to the Rescue
While inside, she heard the familiar sound of the driveway alarm, and immediately thought her husband had decided to meet them at the house so they could ride to the park together. But when she ran to the side door to greet her husband, she came face-to-face with a man in a ski mask sitting in the driver's seat of her car with her keys in hand. She yelled at him, and he dropped the keys and ran away on foot.
There is no way of knowing what would have happened to Miranda's children if her husband hadn't installed a driveway alarm or had installed the wrong type of driveway alarm. Knowing the different types of driveway alarms and their functions is imperative to the safety and security of your home and your family. The following features are available, depending on the driveway alarm model you choose:
•Voice announcement
•Wired or wireless installation
•Detection range up to 2 miles
•Doorbell chimes
•Distinct tones for different areas of detection
•The ability to talk through a transceiver
•Cameras to monitor at-risk areas
A Fence Without a Fence
A driveway alarm can monitor more than just your driveway. A driveway alarm can be used as an invisible fence when placed around the perimeter of your property. A driveway alarm allows you to have the security of a fenced in yard without the eyesore, and if anyone trespasses, you are immediately notified and can take immediate action.
As Miranda Hunter found out, installing a driveway alarm can mean the difference between a happy holiday picnic and a tragedy.
