The Power of the 'Pin Code'
Sonitrol security systems are designed to protect your property, your inventory, and your staff. When armed, the unique features of your verified Sonitrol audio intrusion system can provide floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall coverage.
A key component that determines the effectiveness of your Sonitrol system is your pin code or alarm code. This specific number is essential for maximizing protection and minimizing false alarms. We’ve shared some of our top tips below for protecting your facility that center around the ‘power of the pin code’.
- Pick a unique number, memorize it, and don’t share it. We receive several false alarms each day that result from invalid or incorrect codes entered on keypads.
- Every employee needs an individual code. Sharing codes can weaken your security by increasing the chances of an alarm code falling into the wrong hands. With MySonitrol, you can run reports to see which codes, and in turn, which employees armed/ disarmed your system. Activate new codes for vendors, contractors, and after-hours cleaning crews to prevent false alarms and protect your facility.
- Education is essential. Many false alarms result from incorrect usage of pin codes. Consider scheduling a free Sonitrol training session with employees to review keypad instructions and discuss procedures for canceling and resetting alarm codes.
