Global Burglar Alarm Systems Market Size, Share & Industry Trends Analysis Report By Application (Residential and Commercial & Industrial), By Component, By Type (Wired Alarm System and Wireless Alarm System), By Regional Outlook and Forecast, 2022 – 2028

The Global Burglar Alarm Systems Market size is expected to reach $5.7 billion by 2028, rising at a market growth of 6.4% CAGR during the forecast period.

A burglar alarm system is a collection of electrical equipment and sensors linked to the main system that recognizes any unauthorized or forced entry into the premises and sends out alerts via alarms, hooters, and notifications. Burglar alarm systems are seen as a security necessity as the number of cases of offensive and unlawful acts (thefts, vandalism, etc.) continues to rise. Its acceptance is also fueled by a high level of fear among owners and a need to keep resources protected from incursion or destruction.

Recent technological advancements are lowering its costs and expanding its acceptance in both home and commercial settings. There are three primary types of burglar alarm systems. Wired refers to a system in which all components and electrical systems are connected via wires. Wireless refers to the use of Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or any other radio technology to connect appliances. Hybrid refers to a system that uses both wired and wireless technology to communicate with the primary system. Because of the enormous variety of input devices available, installing a burglar alarm system is a sophisticated and complex operation with nearly endless combinations. They have the ability to detect motions prior to the actual aggressive threat. Each design or combination, however, has the same underlying premise.

First and foremost, appropriate hardware capable of detecting any intrusion-related activity must be deployed on the premises. This hardware varies a lot depending on the owner's needs, the environment, and the type of protection he or she requires. As a result, this stage is handled by installing burglar sensors, which detect a change in the normal environment and alert the control panel. Each sensor has a different way of working and it can be further adjusted to fit the space. The sensors' primary function is to detect any motion or forced entrance. There are numerous sensors available for detecting the same, however, their operation differs.

Covid-19 Impact

Many people had to work from home as offices from all non-essential sectors were shut down by governments of various countries. Thus, the safety of the house became an important issue for people. In the year 2020, the alarm sector saw a moderate demand around the world. The domestic segment has been identified as a prospective security system user. Alarm security systems have become more popular as a result of new business models, the presence of internet giants, and changing customer tastes. There were government-mandated lockdowns across the world.

Market Growth Factors

The Integration of Internet of Things (IoT) in Burglar Alarm Systems

IoT-based security systems ensure user safety by sending immediate notifications. Smart sensing identifies and informs the user of changes in motion, heat, and sound. With the availability of a vast number of high-quality data, IoT makes devices smarter. For example, the utilization of high-definition cameras, infrared vision, and night vision surveillance systems ensure that the specifics of any incident are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. When actual movement occurs, motion activation records and transmits the data. DVR (digital video recording) devices aid in the retrieval of a specific event clip for a specific date and time from a larger recording.

Increasing Popularity of Smart Homes

Smart homes have the potential to make everyone’s, especially, old people’s lives more pleasant and secure. The development of these technologies is currently attracting a lot of attention from industry and policymakers. Emerging technologies, in theory, allow for the provision of a new set of services. The potential for deploying these technologies to increase people's safety and protection from robberies and burglaries is particularly significant. Sensor data can be collected by networked devices, which can improve decision-making on intervention and other measures. Furthermore, these gadgets can be used to teach and warn people about safety hazards.

Market Restraining Factors

High Cost of Deploying, Operating and Maintaining Burglar Alarm Systems

The cost of the hardware, software and services required to establish a security system has a considerable impact on the adoption of home security solutions. As the burglar alarm systems become smarter and wireless, the price is only expected to increase for these systems. Because of the pricey hardware and consultancy fees, the upfront installation cost of a professionally installed system is higher. The cost of ownership, too, is significant as the system requires frequent maintenance, entails subscription payments, and replacement costs in case of any problems. Subscription costs levied by third-party monitoring companies often range from $150 to $1500.
