Reliable Protection with Glassbreak and Shock Detectors
Protect your home with glassbreak and shock sensors that add an essential layer of security to your property. Windows and glass doors are some of the most vulnerable points in any home or business, making them a frequent target for intruders. Standard door and window sensors can only go so far, which is why glassbreak and shock detectors are such an important addition to your security system. These devices are designed to pick up the distinct sound frequency of breaking glass or detect strong vibrations from an attempted break-in, ensuring that any tampering is caught instantly. By adding glassbreak and shock detectors, you create a stronger, more complete layer of defense around your property.
At Zions Security Alarms, we offer a variety of glassbreak and shock detectors designed to fit different property types and system requirements. Whether you need wireless options for easy installation, advanced PowerG models for longer range and stronger signals, or hardwired detectors for maximum stability, we have solutions to keep your windows and glass entry points secure.
Benefits of Glassbreak and Shock Detectors
Adding glassbreak and shock detectors to your security system significantly strengthens your protection. They don’t just react to forced entry—they provide early detection that stops intruders before they can access your home or business. These detectors also complement door and window sensors, offering a complete perimeter defense that ensures no weak spot is left unprotected.
- Enhanced Security Coverage: Protects vulnerable windows and glass doors from break-ins.
- Instant Alerts: Sends real-time notifications to your alarm system and monitoring service.
- Added Layer of Defense: Complements door and window contacts for full perimeter protection.
- Flexible Options: Choose from wireless, PowerG, or wired models based on your setup.
- Peace of Mind: Detects threats immediately, even when you’re not on site.
Types of Glassbreak and Shock Detectors
Every property is different, and so are the security needs that come with it. That’s why glassbreak and shock detectors come in several types, each designed to provide protection in a slightly different way. Whether you want the convenience of a wireless sensor, the reliability of a hardwired setup, or the advanced technology of PowerG devices, there’s a detector that fits your system and environment.
- Wireless Glassbreak Detectors: These detectors are easy to install and offer flexible placement without running wires. Ideal for retrofitting older homes or rental properties, wireless sensors provide reliable coverage with minimal disruption.
- PowerG Glassbreak Detectors: Built with advanced wireless technology, PowerG detectors deliver long-range performance and encrypted communication for extra security.
- Shock Detectors: Instead of listening for breaking glass, these devices detect vibrations or impacts on windows, doors, or walls. They provide early detection by sensing attempted break-ins before the glass even shatters, giving you an additional layer of proactive protection.
- Hardwired Glassbreak Detectors: A dependable choice for properties with existing wired alarm systems, these detectors offer consistent, stable performance.
- Dual-Function Detectors: For maximum security, dual-function devices combine both glassbreak and shock detection in one unit. This ensures that whether an intruder tries to break or force their way in, the sensor will pick up the attempt and trigger an immediate response.
Featured Glassbreak and Shock Sensors
Qolsys Encrypted Wireless Glassbreak Detector
The Qolsys Encrypted Wireless Glassbreak Detector protects you if an intruder tries to break in through a window. Using our proprietary S-Line encryption technology, it encrypts signals sent to the IQ Panel while still providing backwards compatibility for legacy 319.5 systems. It’s triggered by the pitch and frequency of breaking glass, the IQ Glass is effective within 25′ and is activated automatically when you arm your IQ Panel in either “Stay” or “Away” mode. You can typically install it on the opposite wall or on the ceiling to allow for better “listening” ability in large living areas.
