If Your Alarm Goes Off In Suffield, Police Want This Info First

SUFFIELD, CT — Residents and business owners in Suffield who have monitored alarm systems are being reminded to register them with the police department so officers can quickly reach someone if an alarm is triggered.

According to a notice from the Town of Suffield, alarm registration allows the Suffield Police Department to maintain key-holder and after-hours contact information for properties in case an alarm activates when the owner or responsible party is not present.

Town officials said having updated contact information can help officers respond more efficiently and resolve alarm activations when residents are away from home or when businesses are closed.

The registration requirement applies to several types of alarm systems, including burglary alarms, hold-up or panic alarms, medical alarms, and fire alarms that are monitored by an alarm company.

Residents and businesses can access the registration form through the Police Department section of the town’s website under “Records Requests,” or obtain a copy in person at the police department lobby.

Additional information and the alarm registration notice can be found on the Town of Suffield website.
