Intruder alarm installation

We’ll always make sure the alarm system delivers the right level of protection for your business, at the right cost, with the least operational hassle. To give you some examples:
- We offer alarms which are quick to install. They don’t need for expensive wiring
- They work continuously — even during a power cut, broadband or mobile network failure
- They can be integrated with CCTV, access control and fire alarms
- The system can support multiple zones, and be managed from one platform
- You can remotely set, unset or check the system status
- The alarm system can expand as the business grows
Each business faces its own risks. For a bespoke recommendation and expert advice, ask for a free no-obligation security assessment.
Video alarms
Video alarms combine an intruder alarm with video surveillance. When the sensor is triggered, a short video clip is sent to predetermined personnel.
There are several advantages:
- Remote viewers can quickly see whether it’s a genuine threat or false alarm
- Video provides tangible evidence of a threat
- It prompts a rapid response from the emergency services
The result is a drastic reduction in false alarms and an immediate, urgent response to crime.
Video alarms are ideal for a variety of commercial businesses — from vacant properties, construction sites and retail outlets to offices and warehouses.

FAQs
You may have some questions about our intruder alarm systems and services. We’ve answered some of the most common questions here, although please feel free to call us on 0844 561 0578.
Which types of intruder alarms do you offer?
There’s a wide choice — wired, wireless, hybrid and video-verified alarms. Bear in mind that not every system will be right for your commercial premises. We make recommendations based on the individual property, its layout, daily use requirements and the specific security risks.
Where necessary, we can customise systems to meet your needs. For a no-obligation chat about what might suit your property, call our team on 0844 561 0578.
Which areas will need protecting, and which are the highest risk?
This will vary according to the site itself. However, the areas needing protection are often determined by how likely they are to be used for entry, how easy they are to access, and what an intruder could reach once inside.
For example, the highest risk areas are often:
- Entry and exit points — including windows, fire exits, loading doors, roof access doors and hatches
- The perimeter of the sites, particularly areas hidden from view
- Routes through the building
- Areas with high-value or sensitive assets
- Outbuildings, storage yards, detached warehouses or workshops
Can your alarms be integrated with other security systems?
Yes. they can be integrated with your existing security system. It could be CCTV, fire alarms, access control systems, video management systems and a lot more.
Can the system protect multiple buildings, floors or sites?
Yes. Intruder alarms can support multiple zones, and the system itself can be managed from one platform.
Do you provide maintenance for alarm systems?
Yes, we have a maintenance package available. On a regular basis, our engineers will carry out inspections, testing, updates, cleaning and repairs to make sure the system keeps functioning at optimum levels for the long term.
Will I be woken in the early hours by false alarms?
With any system, false alarms are inevitable. However, if we’re monitoring the alarm signals at our in-house alarm receiving centre (ARC), you won’t have to worry about them.
When an alarm signal is received, trained responders immediately verify the cause. If it’s a false alarm, they leave you in peace. If it’s genuine, they immediately coordinate the response.
How does your monitoring and response service work?
It’s a flexible service, carried out by trained security responders at our NSI Gold Category 1 ARC. We can monitor your property 24/7, or only when needed.
This is how it generally works:
- If a sensor is triggered, an alert is sent to the monitoring centre
- Responders assess CCTV footage, filtering it for false alarms
- If it’s a genuine threat, they follow pre-defined protocols — sending a mobile patrol or contacting emergency services where necessary
- If there’s a security breach, the team can activate localised alarms and immediately lock down access points
- You can view live footage on mobile or computer
- You’ll be sent a full report of what caused the alert, and the actions taken in response
