Intruder Alarms
Our intruder alarm systems provide tailored security solutions for homes and businesses. Designed to BS 4737 and EN 50131 standards, our systems offer advanced detection capabilities with options for wireless or hardwired installations. Qualified engineers ensure proper integration with other security measures while maintaining compliance with insurance requirements.
CCTV Installation
We supply and install high-resolution CCTV systems for 24/7 property monitoring. Our solutions include HD external cameras, internal monitoring systems, and digital recording equipment. Installations cater to commercial buildings, car parks, offices, and residential properties, with options for remote viewing and motion-activated recording.
Fire Detection
Our fire protection systems meet current industry regulations with automatic detection and alert systems. We offer online systems that notify emergency services and designated contacts simultaneously, reducing response times. Installations include smoke detectors, heat sensors, and manual call points for comprehensive coverage.
Access Control
Custom access control solutions manage entry to restricted areas using keypads, card readers, or biometric systems. Our installations secure stock rooms, office spaces, and sensitive areas while maintaining ease of access for authorised personnel through programmable access levels.
24 Hour Key Holding
Our 24/7 key holding service provides immediate response to alarm activations without requiring client attendance. Trained personnel attend premises promptly to verify incidents and liaise with emergency services when necessary, offering complete peace of mind for property security outside normal working hours.
