In big cities, car theft or burglary is no longer a strange thing, my friend. Many people want to steal cars, snatch devices like side mirrors, or take items inside the car. Therefore, an alarm is one of the security features in a car that can prevent or catch those bad people.

As usual, the alarm will sound loudly if there are suspicious things detected by the car. The alarm can detect shocks, signals, and even sensors that seem suspicious.

Some car manufacturers now install alarms as a package with their products. This is called a special alarm because the alarm has the same brand as the car. However, there are also some drivers who have to buy/install the alarm themselves in their cars. Based on its production type, this alarm is called a universal alarm, which is an alarm that can be installed in any car.

Types of Car Alarms 

Based on how they work, alarms come in many types. Let's take a look at some ways your car alarm works.

Auto Lock / Unlock

This type works according to the engine sensor. When you are inside the car, the doors will automatically lock after the engine is started. The doors will also open again when the engine is turned off.

Remote Controlled Sensor Bypass

Well, this alarm is a development of Auto Lock / Unlock. You can set when the car doors should be locked or unlocked with the remote.

Anti Scan / Anti Grab Prevention / Anti Code Grabbing

Usually, car thieves will scan the car's security code, hijack, and change it so they can break into the car's security system. With Anti Scan, the security system will prevent thieves from hijacking the code number or frequency.

Two Stage Shock Sensor / Dual Zone Shock Sensor

This type is an alarm that is responsive to shocks. The alarm will sound if there is a first shock. If the first shock is ignored and shocks/friction continue, the alarm will sound even louder.

Automatic Disable Sensor / Starter Disable Output

This alarm is the last line of defense for the car. When a thief dares to forcibly start the car engine, the auto starter relay will cut off the power supply to the car's ignition so the car cannot be driven away.

LED System Status Indicator

This alarm will provide a report to the driver in the form of blinking codes. The code can blink once, twice, and so on. Each blink indicates the level of disturbance experienced by the car.

GPS Car Alarm

Now, the GPS Car Alarm is the last type of alarm that can be said to be very advanced. This alarm will not sound when a thief breaks into the car. When the car is stolen, you can track the location of the car.

After reading about the types of car alarms, you may be confused about which alarm you want to use in your car. Each alarm has its own advantages, so it is advisable to combine several alarms to keep the car safe.

For example, you can use the Two Stage Shock Sensor and Automatic Disable Sensor. Both are sufficient to protect you from thieves who want to snatch valuables inside the car or thieves who want to steal the car.

Do not underestimate the security system in your car, my friend. Alarms have many uses. Although there are still many shortcomings and thieves are getting smarter, you can consult with more knowledgeable people/technicians at the workshop. The point is to enhance the security system in your car, one of which is by using an alarm!
