Annual System Checks
Our engineers perform comprehensive inspections of all alarm components, testing sensors, checking battery status, and ensuring system programming remains current. This preventative maintenance helps maintain insurance compliance and prevents unexpected failures. Each visit includes documentation of findings and immediate advice on required repairs.
Emergency Call-Out
Available 24/7 for urgent alarm issues, our service prioritises rapid response to faults causing random activations or system failures. Engineers carry common replacement parts and provide on-site repairs where possible, with clear cost estimates before any work proceeds.
Wired Component Replacement
Privilege Club members receive 50% discounts on wired parts up to 1,000. We supply manufacturer-approved components for critical elements like PIR detectors and battery packs, ensuring system reliability while maintaining insurance standards through proper documentation.
Battery Maintenance
Technicians check internal backup batteries during annual visits, testing charge retention and replacing units that can't sustain required operation periods. This prevents common issues like random activations following power outages and ensures complete system functionality.
Sensor Cleaning
Regular cleaning and calibration of passive infrared detectors removes obstructions like spider webs that cause false alarms. Our engineers test sensor functionality during maintenance visits, adjusting sensitivity settings to balance security with practical household movement detection.
