Upgrades

One of the solutions offered at MyFortune is upgrading of your security systems. As time goes by these older systems do not provide the functionality of today's standards. Manufacturers also stop supporting and producing spare parts for end of life systems. Another need for upgrading the system could be if there is intermittent downtime where the fault that cannot be fixed permanently. Some systems cannot be added on or expanded and must be upgraded.

Some of the most common items that need to be upgraded are listed below.

Gate and Garage Motors

Gate and garage motors can become problematic over the years from old age and a general lack of maintenance. If you find technicians are constantly having to come repair your gate or garage motor it might be best to have them upgraded to a new unit. This would be the perfect time to consider a different manufacturer suited to your application with a better track record. 

Alarm and CCTV Systems

Alarm systems which do not offer any apps for your smartphone are end of life. It is better to have such old systems upgraded to a new one offering expansion and monitoring capabilities. Analogue CCTV systems have sub standard image quality and usually lack remote viewing capabilities. They can easily be replaced with a Turbo HD system using the existing cabling,

Access Control and Intercoms

Some old access control systems struggle to read access cards or tags. Holding your tag against the reader for 5 seconds just to get a access denied beep is a clear sign that the system is due for an upgrade. If you are struggling to hear the person on the other side through the whining and buzzing sound your intercom system is also due for an upgrade.
