Intruder alarm systems

A professionally installed and maintained intruder alarm system makes you less likely to become a victim of burglary. This has been verified by independent study and is supported by Police advice. However, how do you decide on the best type of system for your individual situation?

Budget, location, type of home, required level of protection: these are all questions we take into account when advising you. For many situations a visible deterrent with ‘bells-only' response is sufficient, but we can also offer a range of signalling systems from SMS & Voice auto-diallers up to dual-monitoring through a certified Alarm Receiving Centre.

Generally we would recommend a hard-wired system for simplicity and long-term reliability but we have a range of modern wireless systems which reduce the disruption during installation and are well proven in operation.

CCTV systems

CCTV or Closed Circuit Television, has become a very common fixture due to falling equipment prices and high value as a visual deterrent to crime and anti-social behaviour.

Increasingly common in commercial and residential properties, CCTV can give the dual advantage of peace-of-mind along with visual deterrence.

Whilst usually secondary to an intruder alarm system, CCTV helps to make a premises less appealing for break-in & vandalism often pre-empting the start of such problems.

Access control systems

It can be difficult to secure your premises when a number of persons required access to varying areas and a range of times.

Commercial premises can benefit from an access control system to monitor and control the flow of persons using code entry, swipe cards, proximity key-fobs or biometric identification.

Staff reporting can be incorporated for time management, key staff location, hazardous area control and lone worker protection.

With experience in bank security, gate automation and child care facilities, we are able to offer a complete advisory, installation and maintenance solution to suit your requirements.

Intercom and entry systems

It whether at home in an apartment or in your business premises, a door intercom system can save a lot of effort and running round every time the door bell rings (especially if you are a couple of floors up!).

Speak to and view the caller from your chosen location and decide if you wish to allow them access, giving you reductions in effort and improvements in safety.

Multiple apartment complexes are no problem as the entry console can connect to a number of residences giving each an individual call button, two way voice communications and internal video display if required.

If this sounds like a good idea for you, call us now and see how we can help.

Fire alarm systems

Fire safety is of critical importance in the home and workplace and is overseen by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 where a Responsible Person must be appointed and annual Risk Assessments must be carried out.

We are able to arrange Fire Safety Risk assessments and then guide you through any fire detection requirements that may arise. Both initial installation and then ongoing routine maintenance are essential to maintain legislative compliance.

Our systems are certified to BS5839 2013 whether part 1 (general buildings) or part 6 (dwelling places).

Emergency lighting systems

An essential part of the Workplace Regulations, Emergency Lighting is designed to provide a battery backed light source that illuminates automatically in the event of power failure and the resulting loss of normal lighting.

Under BS5266-1 2011 we have clear guidelines in order to ensure any emergency lighting scheme design is of a suitable standard to minimise the risk of danger to occupants.

We are able to advise you in all aspects of emergency lighting requirement, install & maintain systems and to provide certification to BS5266.

Patient call systems

Looking after your loved ones can sometimes be very difficult as you cannot always be there for them when they need it. Likewise, those of us who need the confidence boost of having carers on-hand can feel guilty about the demands on our families.

A patient call system helps to keep you safe if anything goes wrong and reduces worry for carers. We all feel guilty and worried in these busy times about our elderly or disabled relatives. If you can't always be there, this is the next best thing.

If needed the user may press the call button and the main control unit will notify staff or family. If required, some systems may automatically dial a list of standard telephone numbers for help.
We have proven solutions suitable for the requirements of individual persons living in the community up to the needs of a busy hospital ward. We will be happy to discuss your requirements on a confidential and no-obligation basis.
