The Fort is a wired external alarm siren designed for the ESP Smart Alarm system, combining a 228mm white polycarbonate housing with a red LED strobe panel and an integrated solar panel on the top face. The solar panel provides trickle-charge backup to the internal battery, reducing the need for mains power intervention during prolonged outages. The siren mounts to external masonry walls and connects to the alarm panel via hardwired cable run.
Designed for residential and light commercial burglar alarm installations, the Fort carries an IP44 rating for protection against splashing water from any direction, making it suitable for mounting on external walls under eaves or on fully exposed elevations. The 228mm width and 109mm depth give the unit a visible presence without dominating the building facade. The red strobe panel provides visual alert alongside the audible siren tone, useful in noisy environments or where visual confirmation of alarm activation is needed at distance.
The white polycarbonate housing resists UV degradation and impact, and the red strobe panel is sealed against moisture ingress. The 201mm height allows the unit to be positioned above ground-floor window height to reduce tampering risk, while the relatively low weight of 654g net makes wall mounting straightforward on standard brick, block or rendered surfaces. The integrated solar panel keeps the backup battery charged during daylight hours, extending the period the siren can operate during mains power failure.

Is this compatible with other alarm systems?
The Fort is designed specifically for the ESP Smart Alarm system and connects via hardwired cable to the main panel. Compatibility with third-party alarm systems depends on the wiring protocol and trigger voltage — consult the Product Manual linked above for full wiring specifications.
What does the IP44 rating mean?
IP44 provides protection against solid objects larger than 1mm and splashing water from any direction. This makes the siren suitable for external mounting under eaves or on fully exposed walls, but it is not submersion-proof and should not be positioned where it will be subjected to water jets or prolonged direct rainfall pooling.
How does the solar panel work?
The integrated solar panel on the top face provides trickle-charge to the internal backup battery during daylight hours. This extends the operational period during mains power failure, but the siren still requires hardwired connection to the alarm panel for trigger signalling and primary power.
What sound level does it produce?
The audible output level is not specified in the available data. Refer to the Product Specification Sheet linked in the Downloads section for decibel rating and tone pattern details.
