Not Just Doors and Windows: Why True Security Covers Every Corner of Your Property
When most people think about security systems, they picture a keypad by the front door and maybe a couple of motion sensors in the hallway. While that used to be the standard, today’s world demands a more robust and wide-reaching approach to protection.
At Carolina Burglar & Fire Alarm, we’ve been helping Carolina families and businesses protect what matters for over [insert years in business] years. As a leading security system supplier, alarm company, and home security provider, we know that true peace of mind comes from securing every area of your life—not just your front door.
From detached garages to self storage units, and from fire safety to environmental detection, it’s time to think beyond the basics.
Why “Good Enough” Security Isn’t Good Enough Anymore
The landscape of risk has changed. Burglars don’t just walk through the front door—they check your back gate, peek in your shed, and look for easy access points around your property. And threats don’t stop at theft: fire, carbon monoxide, water damage, and extreme temperatures pose serious dangers, often in spaces you don’t even monitor.
Yet many homeowners rely on outdated systems that only cover a few rooms—or none at all.
That’s why, as a full-service alarm company, we at Carolina Burglar & Fire Alarm offer custom-built solutions that secure your entire property, not just parts of it.
The Most Overlooked Areas in Home & Business Security
1. Garages and Detached Structures
Garages, workshops, and guest houses often contain high-value items: tools, vehicles, sports equipment, or even home offices. Yet these areas are frequently left unprotected.
We install wireless intrusion systems, smart locks, and surveillance cameras that seamlessly extend your main system to any structure—even those without direct power or Wi-Fi access.
2. Self Storage Units
If you’re using a self storage unit for personal or business use, you may be surprised to learn how limited most facility security systems are. Many offer only gate codes and minimal surveillance.
As a trusted security system supplier, we provide storage-specific solutions for both renters and facility operators, including:
Door alarms and motion sensors
Temperature and humidity sensors (for sensitive items)
Smart padlocks with app control
Mobile alerts and cloud-connected video
Protect your valuables even when they’re stored away from home.
3. Utility Rooms, Attics, and Basements
Some of the most dangerous threats—like fires, gas leaks, and electrical malfunctions—start in areas where few homeowners place detectors.
As a certified fire alarm retailer and smoke detector retailer, we equip every level of your property with the right sensors:
Smoke detectors in high-risk rooms (kitchen, garage, attic)
CO detectors near HVAC and water heaters
Heat sensors where smoke detectors aren’t practical
Water leak detectors for basements and crawl spaces
Monitored 24/7, our systems notify both you and emergency services if danger is detected—so you’re never caught off guard.

The Power of 24/7 Monitoring
One of the biggest mistakes people make is assuming their cameras are “enough.” But unless someone is watching those feeds—or your system alerts the right people—it's often too late when something happens.
All of our systems come with optional professional monitoring, including:
Immediate emergency dispatch
App notifications for any alarm event
Remote arming/disarming from your phone
Health checks and maintenance alerts
It’s not just about catching events—it’s about stopping them in real time.
A Real-World Success Story
One of our customers—a small business owner with a self storage unit used for inventory—reached out after a nearby unit was broken into. Their storage facility had basic security, but no individual monitoring.
We installed a custom security setup including a smart padlock, door sensor, and motion-triggered camera, all connected to their phone.
Weeks later, the motion detector triggered an alert when someone attempted unauthorized access. Police were notified, and the intruder was caught before any inventory was lost.
That’s the difference real security makes.
