PROTECTION PLUS® is pleased to invite the peo­ple of Pick­er­ing to enjoy the peace of mind that comes with good secu­ri­ty.

Set­tled by British colonists in 1770 fol­low­ing England’s defeat of the French in the Sev­en Years’ War, Pick­er­ing has expe­ri­enced rapid growth through­out the sec­ond half of the 20th cen­tu­ry fol­low­ing World War II. This is thanks in part to its prox­im­i­ty to Toron­to which helped Pick­er­ing grow to a city of over 88 700 peo­ple.

In more recent years, growth has slowed due to devel­op­ment restric­tions on land but, des­ig­nat­ed as one of two major urban growth cen­ters in Durham Region, it is expect­ed to receive fur­ther devel­op­ment and fund­ing to encour­age its growth.

The south­ern areas of the city are many sub­ur­ban with indus­tri­al devel­op­ment restrict­ed to the areas direct­ly sur­round­ing Pick­er­ing Nuclear Gen­er­at­ing Sta­tion. The north­ern areas are pre­dom­i­nant­ly rur­al and agri­cul­tur­al with a few res­i­den­tial devel­op­ments. Pri­ma­ry com­mu­ni­ties in Pick­er­ing include Clare­mont, Brougham, and White­vale.

The econ­o­my of the area is dom­i­nat­ed by the Pick­er­ing Nuclear Gen­er­at­ing Sta­tion, but many man­u­fac­tur­ers also have a strong pres­ence in the area includ­ing Yorkville Sound, Hubbell Cana­da, Pur­due Phar­ma, and PSB Speak­ers — Lenbrook. Pick­er­ing is also a found­ing mem­ber of the Durham Strate­gic Alliance.

Whether you live or work in Pick­er­ing, chances are you care about the secu­ri­ty of your prop­er­ties. In order to ensure that you have done every­thing pos­si­ble to pro­tect your­self and your pos­ses­sions, come vis­it us today for an expert con­sul­ta­tion!

FAQ

How long do the batteries last in a wireless alarm system?

The bat­tery life in a wire­less alarm sys­tem can vary based on fac­tors such as the type of sen­sors used, the fre­quen­cy of acti­va­tions, and the qual­i­ty of the bat­ter­ies. Gen­er­al­ly, bat­ter­ies in wire­less sen­sors can last any­where from 2 to 5 years. Sen­sors that are trig­gered fre­quent­ly, such as door/window sen­sors at the main entrance, may have short­er bat­tery lives com­pared to those in less fre­quent­ly used areas. It’s rec­om­mend­ed to reg­u­lar­ly check the bat­tery sta­tus of each sen­sor and replace them as need­ed to ensure reli­able per­for­mance.

Should every door and window be protected?

To ensure com­pre­hen­sive secu­ri­ty cov­er­age, it’s rec­om­mend­ed to pro­tect every acces­si­ble door and win­dow in your home. This means installing door and win­dow sen­sors on all points of entry. This approach pro­vides a high­er lev­el of secu­ri­ty by detect­ing any unau­tho­rized open­ing or breach.

By hav­ing sen­sors on every door and win­dow, you can effec­tive­ly deter poten­tial intrud­ers and receive time­ly alerts if there’s any unau­tho­rized access. Addi­tion­al­ly, you can cus­tomize the arm­ing of your secu­ri­ty sys­tem to ensure that all vul­ner­a­ble areas are pro­tect­ed whether you’re home or away. This com­pre­hen­sive approach helps max­i­mize the effec­tive­ness of your home secu­ri­ty sys­tem.
