Personal safety is an essential aspect of everyday life, and one simple yet effective tool to enhance it is a personal alarm. Whether you’re walking alone at night, working in a potentially hazardous environment, or simply want extra peace of mind, duress alarms are designed to provide an added layer of protection. Here, we explain what duress alarms are, highlight their benefits, and detail how SafeTCard can help you find the perfect one for your needs.
A personal alarm is a compact and durable portable device that emits a loud sound or alert when activated. These alarms are designed to grab attention and deter potential threats, whether they’re from human attackers or unsafe situations. Emergency alarms are commonly used in a variety of settings, including by:
• Solo travellers
• Workers in isolated or high-risk environments
• Students commuting to and from school
• Elderly individuals seeking assistance in emergencies
These devices are small enough to fit in a pocket or attach to a keychain, making them a convenient and discreet safety solution.
Some of the key benefits include;
1. Increased Safety and Security: Personal alarms can deter attackers or alert others in the vicinity, giving you precious moments to seek help or move to a safer location.
2. Peace of Mind: Knowing you have a reliable safety tool on hand can reduce anxiety when navigating unfamiliar or potentially risky situations.
3. Ease of Use: Most emergency alarms are simple to operate, requiring only a push of a button or pull of a pin to activate.
4. Cost-Effective Solution: Compared to other safety tools, personal alarms are affordable while still being highly effective.
5. Wide Applicability: Duress alarms aren’t just for self-defence; they can also serve as duress alarms in workplaces, signalling distress or emergencies to nearby colleagues or authorities.
