Alarm Systems
What We Do
An alarm system is the heartbeat of your property’s security. At Dawit, we don’t just install sensors; we design comprehensive early-warning systems that alert you to a breach before an intruder even enters your home. From false alarm troubleshooting to advanced pet-friendly detection, our systems are built to provide uncompromising reliability in the South African context.
New Installations & System Upgrades
We specialise in both wired and wireless alarm technology, allowing for clean installations even in established homes. Whether you need a brand-new system or want to modernise an existing one, we use high-grade control panels that support multi-partitioning—allowing you to secure your perimeter while you move freely inside.
- Installation of industry-standard brands like IDS, Paradox, and Texecom
- Expansion of zones to include garden beams and outbuildings
- Pet-friendly PIR (Passive Infrared) sensors to prevent false triggers
- Integration with panic buttons and emergency remotes
- Upgrading old "keypad-only" systems
False Alarm Identification & Repairs
Nothing compromises security like a system that triggers for no reason. We offer expert fault finding to identify the specific causes of false alarms—whether it is an insect in a sensor, a faulty cable, or a dying backup battery. We ensure your system is a reliable tool rather than a source of frustration for you and your neighbours.
- Comprehensive testing of all sensors and magnetic contacts
- Replacement of faulty PIRs and weathered outdoor beams
- Battery health checks and power supply troubleshooting
- Identification of environmental triggers (e.g. moving branches or curtains)
- Siren and light testing for maximum audible deterrent
Smart App Integration & Remote Control
Take control of your home security from anywhere in the world. We configure your alarm system to work with mobile applications, giving you the power to arm or disarm your system, bypass zones, and receive real-time push notifications the moment an event occurs. This ensures you are always the first to know what is happening at home.
- Mobile app setup for remote arming/disarming
- Real-time zone-specific notifications to your smartphone
- Remote bypassing of zones for gardeners or domestic staff
- Integration with smart home lighting for visual deterrents
- Multi-user setup for every member of the household
