Noise of alarms prove an ongoing nuisance

I live in the city centre and I have noticed that false alarms occur daily.

I would go as far as to say that on average everyday alarms go off for around 15 minutes. Some days I’d say they go off cumulatively for over an hour. I don’t know the exact figures, but they go off a lot.

I have called the gardai about it, contacted security firms, etc, and apparently alarms can go off for up to 20 minutes at a time.
