Load shedding creates gaps in home security that criminals may try to exploit. Alarm panels, electric fences, gate motors, beams and cameras all rely on power, and their built-in batteries are often old or too small to last through repeated outages. Many homeowners only discover a flat battery when the alarm stops working at the worst possible time.

We start by testing existing batteries and replacing those that no longer hold a charge. Next, we connect key security devices to a small backup supply or your existing inverter so they keep running through each outage. Regular checks matter too, because frequent load shedding cycles wear batteries out faster than normal.
