Our homes business premises and offices are very precious to us, and so it is very important to protect it utterly and completely from all kinds of security threats. It is quite common to install one or two security devices but when burglar manages to break in and commit a crime on your property despite the presence of the security devices you installed, it will make you wonder what else could you had done to prevent the break-in.
One or two security measures is not enough especially when trying to protect high value assets or high profile people today for example a wall fence is not enough on its own, you need to add razor wires on top, razor wires is not enough, you need a sensor light to automatically shine light on an intruder who comes close to the fence, automatically shining lights on the intruder may not be enough, you need a CCTV camera to clearly see the intruder whether he/she is armed or unarmed.
What if the intruder makes their way into your compound despite all these security measures, then you need security guards to confront them, you also need access control system into your house and if the intruder finally enters your house, then you need an alarm system with a loud siren to alert you, neighbors and passers-by of the intrusion. So let us cover all the current security measures to ensure a holistic security of your home, office, business premises, warehouses, factories including the advantage of each.
A wall fence is a barrier made of concrete blocks and mortar to enclose an area, mark a boundary, or provide security. It is very important to build a fence as the first security measure on your property perimeter be it wire fence or wall fence. Wall fence, is our preferred option when it comes to robust security though expensive but worth it. In south Sudan, wall fences are built by civil engineers and their builders. It is important to hire a qualified and experienced engineer to build your fence for longevity and effectiveness of the fences.

If you have a fence already to make your fence more effective, you need to add a razor wire on top of the fence: A razor wire is a flexible, sturdy metal tape with long thin spear-like razor barbs that can be used to keep away unwanted intruders. The design of razor barbed wire makes it difficult to breach, providing a higher level of perimeter protection. Its sharp edges effectively discourage climbing or trespassing, making it an ideal choice for high-security areas.

If you have razor wire installed next you need to install sensor lights. Sensor lights are lights that only turn on when a movement is detected, this is great to install on your fences or close to entry points to your home.
A well-lit property perimeter is an easy and cheap way to deter unwanted intruders. Lights draw attention, and the last thing a burglar wants is someone knowing that they are there. Since motion detector lights turn on whenever they sense movement, an intruder who triggers your lights will be put in the spotlight and easily seen.
Another way your motion detector lights can help your home security is by working in conjunction with a security camera. Setting up a camera to start recording whenever your motion detector lights are triggered lets you capture footage of potential hazards on your property while promoting energy efficiency since your camera and lights will remain dormant until they are triggered.
Motion detector lights can also help you stay safe as you walk at night. If you are coming home late or are expecting visitors, having automatic lights will light your walkways and make your journey safer.
Motion detector lights can alert you of outdoor movement after dark, illuminating potential areas someone might be hiding. Motion detector lights can also let predators know that you are watching, hopefully deterring them from going any closer to your home.
Motion sensor lights are also a great way to save on energy costs. By only activating when motion is detected, they can drastically reduce the amount of energy used to light up the home. This is especially beneficial when it comes to outdoor lighting, as lights can easily be left on by forgetful occupants, leading to wasted energy and higher electricity bills.
Not only do they provide improved home security, but they can also help to save energy costs and provide convenience. If you're looking for an easy way to increase the security, energy efficiency and convenience of your home or business, motion sensor lights are a great option to consider.

If you have sensor lights or any other type of lighting installed, then you need a CCTV camera. CCTV stands for Closed-Circuit Television these are basically cameras that transmit video signals through a closed circuit through the NVR or DVR for processing and storage which is then transmitted to a specific set of monitors for viewing. They help you to see exactly who is in or around you property with details such as colors, possessions, actions so that you can respond appropriately.

Next if you have CCTV cameras, then you need a dedicated security team or guard to engage the criminals when they have been spotted by your camera. Security guards are people responsible for protecting people and properties.
Next you need to install a video door bell, they are a great option if for whatever reason, and you are unable to install CCTV cameras. No more visitors waiting at the door, wondering if you're at home.
Also called doorbell cameras, smart doorbells are Wi-Fi-connected devices that activate when the device's motion sensor perceives the presence of a visitor or when the visitor presses the doorbell button. They are slim, have a motion sensor, a camera, a two way speaker, a recording device.
When a visitor approaches your door or presses the button on the device, the smart doorbell then notifies you through your smartphone or a smart hub. You can then watch the visitor through a live video feed, communicate with them through the device's two-way audio feature, or even set off an alarm if the device is integrated with your home's security system.
Installing a smart doorbell may help reduce your homeowners insurance costs. Not only can smart doorbells help deter break-ins, but their motion detection and video capabilities can also prove invaluable in gathering useful information for both insurance companies and law enforcement.
Provide video evidence to police
If you do experience a break-in, the high-definition video your smart doorbell recorded could prove to be a valuable piece of evidence for law enforcement.
These devices make it easy to monitor delivered packages, allowing you to bring them inside promptly. And if a package is stolen, the recorded videos provide evidence that can be used to track down the perpetrator.

Next you need to have a fire alarm installed. A fire alarm system is a building systems that detects and alerts occupants and emergency forces of fire, smoke, carbon monoxide, or other fire related signs
A fire alarm system is an invaluable safety tool that can alert you to the danger of a fire in your home or building. It is designed to detect smoke, heat, and flames and notify you immediately so that you can take action.
There are two main types of smoke detectors: ionization detectors and photoelectric detectors. A smoke alarm uses one or both methods, sometimes plus a heat detector, to warn of a fire. The devices may be powered by a 9-volt battery, lithium battery, 230-volt house wiring or an alarm panel.

Next you need to install intruder alarms. Intruder alarms are systems that detect a break-in or unauthorized entry into a room, site or building subsequently triggering a sound alert, a phone notification or sometimes a visual alert inform of flashing lights.
Alarm sirens are the most noticeable part of an alarm security system, producing a loud noise when triggered. The purpose of the siren is twofold: to alert the occupants and neighbors of a potential breach and to scare off intruders. Some systems also include flashing lights to provide a visual alert.
Installing an alarm system provides a significant upgrade in security measures and ensures a level of protection that deters potential threats while facilitating rapid emergency response.
Benefits of intruder alarms
Home alarm systems today come with features designed specifically for urgent situations. Users have access to panic buttons within easy reach. These tools enable individuals to swiftly alert emergency services when facing medical crises, fires, or security breaches.

Motion detector is part of an alarm system but just to discuss its individual benefits. This is exactly what you need if an intruder is already inside your property, house or building.
A motion sensor is an electronic device designed to detect movement and changes in the surrounding environment. It is commonly used in security systems, lighting control, and home automation. With various technologies available, including infrared, ultrasonic, and microwave detection, the motion sensor can accurately sense motion and trigger customized responses. From activating alarms to turning on lights, motion sensors provide seamless automation and energy efficiency.
The motion sensor work by detecting changes in infrared radiation or the presence of heat and movement within their coverage area. The most common type of motion sensor is a passive infrared (PIR) sensor, which detects changes in the infrared radiation emitted by objects in its field of view. When an object moves within the sensor's field of view and emits heat, the sensor registers the change and generates an electrical signal. This signal can then be used to trigger an alarm or activate other devices.
Motion sensors are commonly used to:

Next, if you have glass doors or windows you need to install a glass break sensor to detect a breaking glass. Glass break sensors are designed to let you know if glass breaks in your home. That means if a thief tries to break in through a window or a sliding glass door, you will know immediately.
However, if someone tries to break in, you'll get an alert on your phone, no matter where in the world you may be. You can set glass-break sensors to trigger video recording if integrated with your CCTV camera system.
Glass-break detectors add an extra layer of protection to your home, and that's never a bad thing.
If you buy all your components from the same company, compatibility won't be a problem. If you're buying them separately, though, you'll want to make sure your glass-break sensors work with your smart lights, cameras, and everything else in your security system.
As with most security technology, there are pros and cons to using glass break detectors to protect your commercial property from forced entry and burglary.
Pros of glass break sensors

Next you need to install door sensors. Door sensors have many different names including window sensors, entry sensors, contact sensors but they all do the same thing. Door sensors are basically magnetic sensors that are installed on doors and windows and detect whether they are open or closed.
Magnetic contact sensors, sometimes called reed switch sensors, consist of two halves: one half is installed on the door or window, and the other half is installed on its frame. Sensors are carefully aligned to create a closed electric circuit. When the magnet is disengaged—such as when someone opens the door—it interrupts the magnetic sensor circuit and signals an entry notification, such as a beep or chime. When paired with a home security system, the broken circuit sets off your alarm system until you enter a safe code on the system panel.
You can set the signal from a contact sensor to send you an alert that someone has opened your door. On the other hand, you can set that signal to trigger an audible alarm that can frighten potential burglars away. Other brands, however, trigger text messages or mobile alerts. And in other cases, door sensors may be part of larger security systems. Opening a door that's part of a security system can trigger video recording or alert a monitoring center to call the police. We like our door sensors to send us a push notification and trigger our nearest security camera to record at a minimum.

You need to have different devices functioning differently simultaneously to enhance your security significantly. Just as discussed in details, you need to have a wall fence, to make it difficult to enter your home, then you need to add a razor wire on top, to see and scare away criminals, you need sensor lights to shine light on someone around you property perimeter. After installing the lights, you also need CCTV cameras to spot criminals in and around your property.
When a burglar makes it to your compound over the fence, you need CCTV cameras to watch them or video doorbell to see them approaching your door, security guards to confront them and if that is failing then you need access control system to prevent their entry into your house.
If they break into your house then you need an alarm system which can be integrated with break glass detectors in case they broke in through a glass, then a motion sensor, also contact sensors that can detect their intrusion and simultaneously alert you, the police and trigger a loud siren that can alert the neighbors, passers-by of the intrusion and a visual alert inform of multi-color flashing lights to help the police and potential rescuers locate your house quickly at night. You also need fire alarm to alert you of potential fire outbreak. This is simply an analogy but in reality the criminals do not manage to navigate through all security measures one by one until the last, the individual system can easily prevent crimes or help in stopping a criminal in action a lot quicker. If you are looking for a holistic security measure, this is all you need.
