Expert advice
Many homeowners wait until they are the victim of a break-in or robbery before they invest in an alarm system. A home protected by an alarm system is much less likely to be robbed. You may also receive a substantial discount on your insurance by installing an alarm system. At Manukau Lock & Alarm, we start by assessing your protection needs. We specialise in customised alarm systems.
Our hard-wired systems are perfect for new constructions and homes where there is space to run wiring in the attic or roof space.
Wireless systems are ideal for homes with high ceilings or little space for wiring. Wireless systems include remote access devices for arming and disarming your alarm, hand-held control pads and panic buttons.
We can combine hard-wired and wireless technology to incorporate the advantages of both systems.
Security systems these days are more advanced and sophisticated than ever before.
Secure your home
All modern systems are designed to help secure your home against any intrusion. Unfortunately as security systems have advanced, so have the methods that criminals use. A basic alarm is not enough to deter a would-be burglar. By investing in a good alarm system, you will know that your property and your family are secure. We recommend you choose a system that will protect your home at all times of the day.
Potential intruders will see that you have a system in place and move on. Not only is having a security system practical, it can also be cost effective.
Many insurance companies will provide you with a discount on your premiums.

Fire protection
Protect yourself against fire with Manukau Lock & Alarm. Integrating hard wired smoke detectors to your alarm system will give you a complete safety and security system. Hard wired smoke detectors are far superior to battery powered smoke detectors as they offer the following advantages:

Closed Circuit TV
CCTV systems are excellent deterrents against theft and vandalism. All incidents are digitally recorded on a hard drive and can be easily searched by an operator. Our team uses motion sensing cameras to prevent unnecessary recording, thus extending the memory. Some of the features of CCTV are:
- Increased memory by using DVD recorders
- Recording of evidence
- No replacing video tapes
- Motion sensing cameras
- Infra-Red camera
- Multiple camera recording
- Ease of incident searching
Access control
With an electronic access control system you can prevent any unauthorised entry or exit to your premises. It also restricts staff from entering areas where they are not permitted. Some of the features are:
- Time lockout
- Audit trail of entries and exits
- Individual access cards can be
deprogrammed from system by manager
- Alarm code is not required
A correctly installed access control system is a living intruder prevention system while the alarm system is turned off.
Access control systems use electronic cards as keys to the facility. This system protects equipment, inventory and information by means of controlling employee access to certain areas. You will no longer need to replace keys and locks when an employee is terminated - you can simply delete the employee’s electronic key.
The system can also be set up to provide reports which detail the time employees arrive, which rooms they enter and when they leave the building. The system can also be used for payroll purposes by recording the time and date of entry.
