Hello everyone,
A good friend owns an optical shop. The store has been broken into twice now. The property damage each time was considerable. Does anyone have experience with intruder alarm systems and possibly connecting them to a mobile phone? I really like the concept of a fog system, but it also triggers the smoke detectors...
I would appreciate any information.

The worst part every time is the property damage and loss of income.
I wanted to install a fogging system, very effective! But I don’t want to hire the installation company because the smoke detectors would then be triggered. I said that doesn’t matter, maybe it’s even a good thing. But they refuse to do it...

@Vicky Pedia here are some pictures of the intrusion alarm system (EMA) installed in a school. Sorry, I only managed to upload them today.

Oh, the doors are also additionally secured with magnetic contacts.

Hello @Vicky Pedia just out of curiosity, have you already decided on a system?

@Flocko1 We went with a Honeywell system that includes 24-hour fault monitoring. This was ultimately required by the insurance company. But for now, it’s working.
