In protecting your home or business, the hard part is finding the right alarm system. Making sure it is monitored is the other part. Many home and business owners in Sydney use the Hills Reliance R128 alarm system, which is reliable and flexible. But when the alarm system is made to be monitored, with Trikdis monitoring as the alarm communications, does it really provide value? Let’s have a look.
What is it?
Hills Reliance R128 is a commercial grade alarm system for residential or commercial use, and supports up to 128 zones (the number of ‘active’ external environments). R128 is ideal for residential homes (big and small) and commercial-scale facilities (multiple offices, factories, even warehouses). R128 is robust and generally built to support advanced trigger/event features (e.g. monitoring certain doors only during particular hours, or set for night time only). R128 is effective against intruders as it allows the user to expand and modify the system to suit their protection needs.

Is it worth it?
Whether you are only using your Hills Reliance R128 as an alarm system or not, it is still a solid alarm system. However, when used with the Trikdis monitoring, it is a modern and connected solution. The additional capabilities of a remote connection via multiple communication paths, multiple forms of communication, and app control takes the alarm beyond a security system and provides a worthwhile investment in convenience and better security, for any potential mishap.
