Maryland MD Security and fire alarm system installers configure and mount security and fire alarms in private homes. Security is big business these days. With more information being kept on computers (with little or no paper trail), keeping networks secure is the focus of many jobs. However, the workplace is not the only place where security is a concern. Homeowners often use security systems to provide an extra measure of safety. This makes sense, since just as businesses are storing more information on computers, so are regular folks. Losing computer hard drives to theft can be just as traumatic as losing heirloom jewelry. Therefore, more people are calling on security and fire systems installers to help them protect their property. The work of security and fire systems installers is important. At the same time, the work may seem simple. Attach a box to the wall, turn it on, and you're done, right? Not so fast. Because security and fire systems rely on computer software, installers have to be knowledgeable about computer technology as much as they need to know how use power tools. In addition, they need to know about electronics, as much of their installation work entails connecting wires and circuits. Maryland MD Working with clients is usually the first step of an installer's job. They discuss what type of system would work best for the client and often give estimates. Next, they use building plans and system manuals to determine the best way to install the system. Maryland MD Installation usually requires drilling holes in walls, ceilings, and floors so that wires can be threaded through and connected. After this, they can mount cameras, sensors, and control panels in places the client has specified. The work is not finished here. At this point the installer must program and test the system. They need to make sure each part works, from the wiring to the software to how sensitive the sensors are. Next, the installer adjusts the system to correct any errors and to make sure it's set up how the client would like it. They also usually train the client how to use the system. In many cases, installers also perform maintenance and repairs after the system has been installed. The outlook for security and fire alarm systems installers is related to growth in the construction industry. This is because many new homes, office buildings, and factories have security or fire alarms installed when they are built. Thus installers are likely to experience job growth as long as construction continues to grow. Even if it slows, there will still be the need for installers. Some home or building owners will need alarm systems added to existing buildings. In Maryland MD, employment growth for security and fire alarm systems installers is expected to be faster than average through the year 2014. Job openings, however, will be limited by the size of this small occupation. About 40 job openings are expected each year. Maryland MD Wages vary by the installer's level of experience. Wages also vary by area of the country and employer. Maryland MD Security and fire alarm systems installers generally receive health insurance, paid vacation, and retirement benefits. Install equipment, machines, wiring, or programs to meet specifications. Determine the causes of technical problems and find solutions for them. Repair machines or systems. Determine the tools and equipment needed to do a job. Maintain equipment on a routine basis. Determine when and what kind of maintenance is needed. Watch gauges, dials, and output to make sure a machine is working properly. Analyze needs and requirements when designing products. Operate and control equipment. Test and inspect products, services, or processes. Evaluate quality or performance. Design equipment and technology to meet user needs. Security and fire alarm systems installers need knowledge in the following areas: Home Security - Security Alarm Systems Security Alarm Systems. Do you keep extremely valuable or sentimental property/possessions in your house? Do you often leave your house unattended for more than a few hours everyday, or do you want more protection and peace of mind? These can be some reasons to invest in an alarm system. The FBI has announced that over a ten year period, an average of one (1) of every four (4) residences throughout the United States will be burglarized. In 2002, there were 2,119 burglaries (1,639 residential; 480 non-residential) in the City of Virginia Beach, making it one burglary occurring every four (4) hours, eight (8) minutes. Many quality alarm systems are available on the market. Before you purchase a security system, you should have in mind what kind of system you want. Maryland MD This will prevent buying more equipment than you actually need. Read as much about different brands and types of systems as you can. Talk to friends and neighbors that have alarm systems. We recommend that you speak to at least three security companies about their product and service prior to purchasing any alarm system. Choosing Your Alarm System - Questions To Ask Yourself. Have I installed or implemented other security measures first that may make buying a alarm system unnecessary? How do I know the right company to choose when considering the purchase of an alarm system? How much protection do I need? What kind of alarm system should I get? How much should I expect to pay? Tips To Help When Choosing An Alarm Company Ask about insurance . . . general liability, workman's compensation, and errors/omissions. Maryland MD You have every right to ask for certificates of insurance for these items. This protects you, because if the company is not properly protected, the claim or losses may fall on you. Ask for the company's city business license, which allows them to do business in your community. Ask for local Maryland MD referrals of other customers in your area that have had systems installed like the one being proposed to you. Check your contract! Review carefully what you sign, make sure everything is agreed upon in writing. Know what the warranty period is and what is included in the warranty. Remember, an adequate design should consider the structure, the lifestyle, the perceived needs and the budget of the occupant. Ask if the company has been established for three to five years. Be sure the company does the entire installation and does not subcontract work out. The Maryland MD Police Department does not prefer one alarm company over another or one alarm system over another, nor do they recommend specific companies, brands, or types of security devices of any kind.
