Historic House Security Alarms

Historic houses show collections in rooms, not cases. Xtra-Sense display alarms protect objects in place, with no damage to period furniture.

Xtra-Sense display alarms work by detecting tiny changes in weight, even when the display surface is heavily loaded. Lift an object, slide it off its spot or swap it for something lighter and the alarm goes off. Nothing is tied, chained or wired to the object itself, so visitors see the item, not the security.

Historic houses and heritage properties put collections on show in the rooms they were made for. Glass cases are usually out of the question and drilling into fabric or furniture is a non-starter.

The alarm can also trigger the wider security set-up, such as CCTV cameras, voice messages, pagers or lighting, through hard wiring or common wireless transmission systems. Small site or big site, it slots in.

Xtra-Sense Ltd designs and manufactures its security and safety products in Honiton, Devon, and has been solving awkward security problems since 2000. Call 01404 43366 or email security@xtra-sense.co.uk to talk it through.
