Hey All,

Just curious. How effective is have a Glass Break Detector with Patio Doors
that have Security Laminate installed???

How will the Glass Break hear the right sounds or are we talking a whole new
technology here.

The reason for asking is because I just caught the tail end of that TV show
that shows all the bad guys how to best break into a house. (idiots)

Any how they pumped up the Bosch Security system and how great the Glass
Breaks are going to work "especially" with the all the Laminate on the Glass
Doors.

So are we talking something special or is it just a bunch of BS???

TIA

Les

I saw that one...sales hype.

Some gbs (like IEI550) have dip switch settings for different types of
glass, some don't so read the manual to see. I've never had problem picking
up laminate glass. Glass actually tears btw.

Ok, maybe.

For what it is worth "Laminate Glass" with plastic between glass panes would
be different than "Tempered Glass" with a Plastic Sheet Coating stuck on
top would it not??

Still seems to be a bit of BS.

I have always had a bit of a problem with Glass Break Detectors since the
only true test would be to pick up a rock or brick and throw it thru the
window. I would if the customer would pay for the repairs.

Simulators are just that SIMULATORS. Just my personal opinion.

That's true and I've gotten into several arguments with "techie"
clients...glass jar with broken glass seems to quell that.
I've probably a few thousand out there and they work because I've had many
attempted break ins...it's also why I stick to only a few models since I
know how they behave.

IEI-510-550s
Sentrols
FG-730

Every install I do has at least one GB.

Don't get me wrong I have used them as well just not a lot. And the models
you listed. I just don't think I have the greatest confidence that you may
have.

It may have something to do with the Love Birds in the Pets Store causing
false alarms a number of years ago. I guess I never quite got over
that...........................................
