Services
Intruder Alarm Installation
We design and install bespoke intruder alarm systems tailored to UK properties. Our solutions suit detached houses, flats, and commercial premises, using wireless technology for easy setup and minimal disruption. Features include PIR motion sensors, door contacts, and 24/7 monitoring options. Every installation comes with clear user guides and maintenance advice.
Smart Alarm Specialists
Our smart alarm systems integrate with mobile apps, Alexa, and Google Home for real-time control. Users receive instant alerts, live camera feeds, and remote arming/disarming. Ideal for tech-savvy households, these systems offer pet-friendly sensors, wireless keyfobs, and compatibility checks with existing smart devices for seamless operation.
24-Hour Monitoring
We offer monitored alarm systems that notify a call centre or designated contacts during emergencies. This service ensures rapid response for properties left unoccupied or requiring police intervention. Monthly fees apply, with options to link systems to insurance-approved URNs for guaranteed compliance with UK insurers' requirements.
Alarm Maintenance Services
Annual servicing keeps your alarm system functional and compliant. Our engineers perform battery replacements, sensor calibrations, and signal strength checks. We recommend biannual checks for landlords or frequently absent homeowners. Remote diagnostics reduce callout costs and ensure prompt issue resolution throughout the year.
Pet-Friendly Alarms
Our pet-friendly systems use weight-sensitive sensors to ignore animals under 35kg, preventing false alarms. Designed for homes with cats or large dogs, these sensors avoid triggering during night-time movements. We test installations with treats and toys to ensure reliable operation without restricting pets' freedom.
Questions
What's the average cost of a reliable alarm system in the UK?
Basic kits start around £150 for flats, while most spend £400-£950 for smart packages. Professional installation costs £150-£350, with monitored systems requiring monthly fees for 24/7 support.
Are wireless alarm systems suitable for thick-walled UK homes?
Modern wireless systems use mesh networks to penetrate thick stone walls. Backup batteries ensure operation during power cuts, and professional installers optimise signal strength for reliable coverage in historic properties.
Do monitored alarms qualify for insurance discounts?
Yes, monitored systems with NSI/SSAIB accreditation and police URNs often reduce premiums by 5-15%. Inform insurers immediately after installation and provide proof from your accredited installer for maximum savings.
Can I install alarms in rented properties?
We recommend non-invasive wireless systems with adhesive sensors. Always consult your landlord first, and document existing conditions with photos to protect your deposit during installations.
How do smart alarms integrate with existing devices?
Our smart systems connect seamlessly with Alexa, Google Home, and smart lighting via WiFi. Syncing takes minutes, allowing automated responses like flashing lights during alarms or receiving open-window alerts on your smartphone.
