Replacing your burglar alarm’s battery is important to make sure that the system always run smooth. It’s important to remember that there a typical home security system uses batteries, depending on whether your system is wireless or not. One of the most crucial things to always remember is the battery that keeps the alarm system running. This is the so-called “alarm panel battery” that needs to be replaced regularly, usually every four years, otherwise, other battery-related problems may occur. 

Now, to replace the battery, you first have to determine the location of the control panel and from there, you have to open the control pale to find the battery inside. What you have to do next is to lightly pull and disconnect the battery. After this, it’s time to replace the battery and test the system to see if the new battery works.

Changing the battery of your burglar alarm can be done even if you don’t know much about electronics. You have to know the basics like locating the control panel box which is likely to be found in your basement. You have to open the control panel box by entering the code or by removing the screws which are located on the side of the cover.  Then you have to take out the old battery by disconnecting the wires from the circuit board. Once all the wires are detached, you can take out the old battery. Be careful so you don’t come in contact with metal objects as you do this. To put a new battery, match the wires with their corresponding terminal on the top of the new battery.
If you’re having trouble opening the control panel, or if you think you need a hand in replacing the battery, don’t hesitate to call your home security services provider. If you want to take your home security to a higher level, get in touch with professionals who have been in the home security business for decades and have installed several burglar alarms in Kent and CCTV systems in other locations.
