Q.
How can the CageGRATE be tied into our current alarm systems?
A. Yes, our LightLOC monitoring systems can be integrated to existing alarms via hard contacts or through software gateways.

Q.
Does the fiber inside the grate sense on vibrations?
A. CageGRATE, along with all other LightLOC products, was designed to be a zero-false-alarm solution.  CageGRATE and its monitoring system will not sound an alarm unless the grate is in the process of or has been breached. Water flow, debris, wind, wildlife, and all other expected sources of movement at a grate location will not trigger an alarm.

Q.
What kind of steel is used to make the CageGRATE?
A. Mild steel or stainless steel is used to build the CageGRATE depending on whether it will be exposed to a wet or dry environment. They can also be powder-coated or galvanized to extend their life.
