But where is the best place to install an alarm system for optimal results? With over 20 years of experience in the security industry, you've come to the right place for the answer! Here you'll find information on the best places to install contacts, sensors, detectors, and cameras. Where you install your alarm system has a significant impact on its functionality.
Install motion sensor

A key part of reliable security is installing a motion sensor. These sensors trigger an alarm. They are often sensitive to both motion and heat, so natural influences like wind are irrelevant. Choose a location where an intruder is likely to walk past. Do you have pets? Prevent false alarms by mounting the sensor high (1.20 m)! It's also important that when installing a motion sensor, it's not hidden by furniture or curtains.
Place camera
To clearly identify unwanted guests, it's important to place a camera in a suitable location. Install the camera in the corner of a room to minimize the blind spot (the missing line of sight). Avoid corners above a window or door, and don't have the camera film downwards. When using an IP camera, the cameras capture sharp images from a distance. When placing a camera, it's best to aim it at doors.
Installing a siren
A siren is a must-have for your alarm system . It's best to install it in a location where the alarm can be heard throughout the house. This depends on the house, but common locations include the living room, hallway, and stairwell. Alarm systems have evolved rapidly in recent years. There are various types of sirens with both audible and visual signals. If you use a light alarm system, you can install the siren in rooms where people are often present, such as the living room, bedroom, or entrance in businesses.
