# Panic Buttons for Homes and Shops: How They Work and What to Buy

One press to sound the siren and call for help.

An alarm only protects you if it makes noise before the intruder is inside.

Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that.

**In this guide you will see:**

- Wireless buttons need no wiring.
- Place by the bed, till and entrance.
- Link to a siren or an app alert.

Quick answer

A panic button is wired or wireless and, when pressed, sounds a siren and/or sends an alert to your phone or a security response company. Place one by the bed, behind the till and near the entrance, and test it monthly. A wireless pendant is useful for elderly relatives.

Does a panic button call the police?
