Intruder Alarms
Our intruder alarms deter crime through audible alerts and smartphone integration. Systems automatically notify clients and monitoring services, with options for pet-friendly detection. Annual servicing ensures compliance and longevity, reducing false alarms through quality components.
CCTV Systems
Advanced CCTV systems offer motion detection, facial recognition, and remote monitoring. Smart recorders distinguish between genuine threats and environmental factors. Installations integrate with alarms for comprehensive property protection in residential and commercial settings.
Access Control
Custom access control solutions include keypads, fobs, and biometric systems. Smartphone integration allows remote management of entry points. Ideal for businesses requiring secure yet flexible access for staff and visitors.
Fire Protection
Tailored fire detection systems provide early warning with monitored alerts. Maintenance packages ensure compliance with safety regulations. Commercial systems include remote reset capabilities and integration with security monitoring services.
Security Fog Alarms
Deter intruders with high-visibility fog triggered by alarm activation. Systems create disorientation while preserving evidence. Suitable for commercial premises requiring non-physical security barriers with minimal property damage.
