Methods of guarding the country site

Protection of the premises and property from thieves is one of the most acute problems in modern society and problems that exist at all times. Lovers of light profit and craftsmen bring great moral and financial damage on hacking premises and cars. Every year, thousands of large and small robberies occur in the world. But it is necessary to defend yourself not only from thieves, another trouble that brings trouble to ordinary people - fires. There are many ways to protect the home from these misfortunes.

Why do thefts occur in summer cottages

The main reason for the thefts in summer cottages is the absence of any security system. Careless owners of some houses do not pay due attention to the very structure. The perimeter of the site is protected primarily with the help of a strong and high fence, and the room itself is equipped with shutters and strong doors through which thieves are difficult to penetrate the house. That is, the main cause of thefts in summer cottages is the lack of a security system.

Another factor that makes country house accessible to thieves is the inability to keep an ordinary dog \u200b\u200bin the yard. This animal over the years has helped a person in the protection of property. A well -trained dog will scare off the thief barking and hold it in the yard if he nevertheless penetrated. But it is not possible to keep a dog for many people at the dachas. Since the animal requires constant care and at least feeding. If there are people in the neighborhood who do not leave the country village at any time of the year and do not refuse to feed the animal, then there is no problem to start a dog in the country. If for the winter period the country village is empty, then the dog will just die.

A country house is a place of seasonal residence. Some people are in the country throughout the summer period, while others come there only for the weekend. In the winter period, summer villages are unattended. And given the fact that the majority of residents leave them, there are practically no barriers for thieves. In the dachas, nothing valuable is almost kept, all this is most often exported by the owners for the winter period. However, thieves will always find what to profit from. Therefore, protection for a summer residence is the key to calm and the safety of all things.

Engineering methods for protecting the summer cottage

The engineering method of protecting the summer cottage is the simplest and most common protection method. It includes measures such as installing metal gratings and doors, rollers and a shock -resistant film. Metal lattices are optimally suitable for protecting windows in the basements and in the attic. On the windows, the lattices do not look very aesthetically pleasing and it is better to use a shock -resistant film to protect them, which not only protect the glass, but will not let ultraviolet rays into the room. Minus of the film - it does not protect the frames and fastening of the glasses, only the glass itself.

Another way to protect the windows is shutters, a modern modification of the shutters. These are dense curtains that fall and rise, covering the openings. Also, rollers are used for additional door protection. The construction of the rolllet looks very aesthetically pleasing, in addition, they have a low price, which makes them very popular.

Engineering protection systems are beneficial financially, since doors, gratings, rollers and fences are a one -time investment of money. Among the shortcomings are not a very beautiful appearance, no matter what beautiful bars, they do not add beauty windows. In addition, in the case of emergency evacuation in a fire, additional measures of engineering protection will become an obstacle to salvation.

Protection of summer cottages with specialized services and watchmen

This method of protection is called physical, it implies the hiring of a watchman or the use of security organizations, which are now a great many. Employees of security companies have special training and uniforms, the services they provide are high -quality and professional. It is quite simple to organize this type of security on your site, you just need to choose a company and conclude an agreement. There are many such services, and for the guards you will need a special room in which they will carry out their service.

In financial terms, the watchman’s hiring will cost much cheaper.   This employee is a person hired through a cooperative who is familiar or just a neighbor who will look after a certain fee behind the site. The reliability of this method is low, since, unlike professional security agencies, the watchman legally does not bear material liability for the protected territory.

Protection of summer cottages by technical means

The protection of the summer cottage is also carried out using the latest technical developments. The main element of such a system is security alarm sensors that are installed around the circumference of the protected territory. The functioning of the sensors occurs in two different ways. The first - the information they transfer are displayed to the remote control, where the security officer is watching it. If an invasion of the territory occurs, then the sensor transmits an alarm and an employee of the security company notifies the incident team of response. The guards travel to the address at which the alarming signal worked.

The second method of functioning is the sensor ligament directly with the owner of the real estate. In this case, an alarm comes to a mobile or stationary phone. Often, notification is programmed not one at once, but at once by several phone numbers. The advantage of this method is that you do not need to pay for the services of a security company and conclude an agreement on tracking the cottage on the control panel. All expenses are reduced to the purchase, installation and adjustment of equipment. The disadvantage of this method is the need to personally take measures when the alarm signal is received from the system.

The sensors and the service system are also often equipped with signal siren, which is able to scare away people illegally penetrated into the territory. In addition, Revun will attract the attention of neighbors who will already take measures by contacting the relevant authorities.

Combined method of protecting the summer cottage

Of the above methods, one specific type of protection is chosen or several types are combined, which is the most optimal and effective solution. For example, the option of combining the availability of strong engineering structures that protect the house from the invasion and the established technical methods for monitoring the territory is more reliable than the use of only one of these methods.

In this case, it is necessary to focus not on the quantity, but on the qualitative difference in security systems. Instead of putting security sensors through every 20 m area, it is better to spend these financial resources on strengthening doors and locks, and put sensors only around the perimeter of the site.

With your own hands security for a summer cottage

Installation of a security system is a rather costly process, but if you perform the installation with your own hands, then the alarm will cost much cheaper. The first installation option is the installation of a finished security system for a private house.

• To install the system, it is necessary to purchase a controlled security and fire device, door opening sensors, risen boxes and wires. At will, the motion sensor is still acquired.
• First, a signal lighthouse is installed, its location is selected on the street so that it is clearly visible. The direct purpose of the lighthouse is to warn about the invasion, but in a prominent place it also carries a warning function. The type of flashing red lamp in most case makes the thieves change his mind to invade this territory.
• Next, the control part of the system is mounted. These devices operate in a wide temperature range, because they are installed both in the room and on the street.
• Sensors are mounted on each door. This part consists of two parts, one of which has wires, but the second is not. The half without wires is mounted directly on the door, part with wires is installed on the jamb.

• The wires are extended from each sensor and connected to each other with roller boxes. In the end, all wires are connected to the controlling device. For sensors, it is enough to take two -core wires.
• From the controlling device, the wire is connected to the lighthouse, a four -wire wiring is already needed here, since two veins are necessary for light and two for sound.
• An external switch for alarm is installed. It is connected with the controller with a special two -core wire.
• Electricity is brought to the controlling device and all wires from sensors to the microcircuit are connected. Here they act according to the instructions for the device, it necessarily contains a scheme for joining all components.
• Next, the device is programmed. The program determines the location of a special jumper. Programming instructions are also available to the device.

The installation of the security system is completed. There is another small nuance that should be taken into account by the owners who protect their houses on their own. The lighting beacon is located on the street, because any technically educated thief knows that to decide it, you just need to cut the wires and the alarm will shut up. If the house is under the protection of special services, then during the bypass they will certainly pay attention to the lack of a red light of the lighthouse. If such a service does not follow the house, then the thief will calmly penetrate the room and do his job, despite the security system.

The way out of this situation is simple-an additional lighthouse-revolution is installed indoors. Even having disabled the street lighthouse and penetrating the room, the thief will hear another signal that works in the depths of the house.

The second method of installing a warning system is even more budgetary, but requires a little skill and ingenuity. To implement this idea, only an old and simple mobile phone will be needed. The essence of the alarm is that a sensor is installed on the door, which is connected to the quick call button on the phone. When the door is opened, the contact closes and the phone makes a call to the indicated number. The convenience of this method is that by accepting a call from a signal phone, the owner of the real estate will not only find out about the invasion of its territory, but also hears everything that happens there.

1. To attach a mobile phone to the sensor, you need to remove its top panel and access the buttons contacts.
2. On the button, which is designed for a quick set, gently lift the protective film.
3. A design of three layers is placed in the formed cloth of the contact-a conductor-insulator-conductor.
4. Next, hermetic contact is attached to the door, which will respond to its opening.
5. The sensor using the wire is connected to the phone.

The design of this sensor is such that when two halves are connected, the magnet in one of them prevents the passage of current. When the halves are opened, the magnet moves away from the sensor, the current begins to go along the wire to the phone and the number is set. Such a homemade alarm will cost no longer at all, but act will be effectively.

Fire safety systems

To ensure fire safety, not only the protection of gardens and sites is necessary, but also the system of special tracking sensors. The principle of operation of the fire department is the same as in the design described above. Only the type of installed sensors differs. Their main varieties are the determinant of the level of heat and smoke. Next, the devices are divided into types by the method of detecting a sign. Thermal sensors are differential and maximum. The maximum sensors operate on an absolute temperature value, differential in temperature extremes.

Combined sensors determine both the presence of smoke and the temperature regime. The next variety is the determinants of open flame and gas. Country houses, as a rule, have a small area, because the fire protection of the site and houses should be carried out very effectively. It is necessary to select a sensor that will work at an early stage of the fire. Therefore, ordinary thermal sensors for a country house are not the best option.

In addition to a fire alarm, you must have in a summer house all the necessary fire extinguishing agents. Since the fire does not go out of the only warning about trouble. There should be at least one fire extinguisher in the house, and ideally it is supplemented with a sandy box, a shovel and other attributes of a standard fire shield.
