Secure Your Home This Holiday Season with Watchguard Alarms From Campad Electronics

As we are now in December 2025, many Australian families are planning their holiday travels. While this season brings joy and relaxation, it also brings an increased risk of home burglaries. An empty home can be an easy target for intruders. Modern security technology, however, offers homeowners powerful tools to protect their property and gain peace of mind. Campad Electronics is highlighting its advanced DIY home security alarm solutions, the Watchguard Force Wireless WiFi and 4G Alarm Pack and the Watchguard Wireless WiFi Alarm and 4G Signal Kit, designed to provide robust, reliable and accessible home protection.

Dual-Network Systems Offer Uninterrupted Protection

The core strength of the Watchguard alarm systems is their dual-network capability. Both the Watchguard Force Alarm Pack and the Signal Kit operate on WiFi and a 4G mobile network. This design ensures your home security remains active even if one network fails. If your internet connection drops or a power outage disrupts your WiFi, the system automatically switches to the 4G network.

When a 4G SIM card is installed, the system can send SMS notifications directly to your smartphone, alerting you to any issues, including power failures or security breaches. This constant connectivity means you are always in the know, whether you are at work, running errands or enjoying a vacation on the other side of the country. This level of reliability is essential for maintaining security when you are away from home for extended periods.

Smart Integration and Remote Control

Today’s homeowners expect convenience and the Watchguard systems deliver. They integrate smoothly with popular smart home platforms like Google Home and Amazon Alexa, allowing you to control your security system with simple voice commands. The entire system can be managed remotely through the Smart Life smartphone app.

From the app, you can arm or disarm the alarm, check the status of sensors and receive real-time alerts. If a sensor is triggered, you get an instant notification, allowing you to take immediate action. This remote access is invaluable during the holidays, as you can monitor your property from anywhere with an internet connection, ensuring everything is secure while you celebrate with family and friends.

Easy DIY Installation and Cost-Effective Security

One of the most significant barriers to installing a home security system has been the perceived complexity and cost. Watchguard has addressed this by creating systems that are designed for easy, Do-It-Yourself (DIY) installation. You do not need to hire a professional or deal with complicated wiring. The wireless components connect seamlessly to the main control panel and the included instructions guide you through the setup process.

This DIY approach makes securing your home more affordable. With no installation fees and no mandatory monthly monitoring contracts, Watchguard systems are a cost-effective investment. You own the hardware outright and control your own security. For a one-time cost, you can establish a comprehensive security perimeter that protects your property for years to come.

Watchguard Force Wireless WiFi and 4G Alarm Pack

The Watchguard Force Alarm Pack is an ideal all-in-one solution for homes and small businesses. The kit includes the central control panel, an indoor PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor to detect motion, a magnetic reed switch for a door or window and two remote controls for easy arming and disarming. This foundational kit provides a strong starting point for building a complete security system.

Watchguard Wireless WiFi Alarm and 4G Signal Kit

For those needing an even more comprehensive setup from the start, the Watchguard Wireless WiFi Alarm and 4G Signal Kit offers an expanded package. This system is also designed for straightforward DIY installation and provides the same dual-network reliability and smart home integration, making it a powerful choice for larger homes or those requiring more coverage.

Customize Your Security with a Wide Range of Accessories

The true power of the Watchguard alarm systems lies in their expandability. You can customize your security network by adding a variety of wireless accessories to meet the specific needs of your property. This allows you to create layers of protection that cover every potential vulnerability.

Key Accessories Include

• PIR Sensors: Both indoor and outdoor PIR sensors are available. These devices detect motion within a specified area. The outdoor sensor is pet-immune, preventing false alarms from animals weighing up to 20kg and is built to withstand harsh weather.
• PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) Camera: Add visual surveillance with the Watchguard Force PTZ Camera. It records in Full HD 1080p, features night vision and allows for two-way audio. You can view the live feed and control the camera’s position directly from your smartphone.
• Magnetic Reed Switches: These sensors are perfect for securing doors and windows. They trigger an alarm if the connection between the two parts of the switch is broken, indicating that a door or window has been opened.
• Strobe Sirens: An outdoor strobe siren provides a powerful deterrent. Its 115-decibel alarm and flashing strobe light will alert neighbors and scare off intruders.
• Smoke Detectors: Enhance your family’s safety by integrating a wireless smoke detector. It connects to the alarm system, sending you an alert on your phone in addition to its local alarm.
• Solar-Powered IR Multi-Beam Sensor: For advanced perimeter protection, this sensor creates an invisible infrared “curtain” up to 20 meters long. It is solar-powered, making it an eco-friendly and low-maintenance option for securing fences, balconies and driveways.

Protect Your Home Before the Holidays

Investing in a home security system provides more than just protection for your valuables; it offers invaluable peace of mind. Knowing your home is monitored and secure allows you to fully relax and enjoy your time away. The deterrent effect of a visible alarm system alone can be enough to prevent a break-in.

With the holiday season fast approaching, now is the time to take proactive steps to secure your home. The Watchguard Force Wireless WiFi and 4G Alarm Pack and the Wireless WiFi Alarm and 4G Signal Kit offer a modern, reliable and affordable solution. Their ease of installation means you can have your system up and running well before you leave for your trip.

Don’t let security concerns cast a shadow over your holiday plans. Explore the range of Watchguard alarm systems and accessories available at Campad Electronics and ensure your home is protected. A small investment today can prevent a major loss tomorrow, letting you focus on what truly matters: making memories with your loved ones.
