Useful alert choices

We explain audible, monitored and app-based options before you decide.

Detection planned around likely entry routes

An intruder alarm should identify unauthorised entry without making normal use of the property confusing. We examine doors, windows, internal routes and rooms that need separate protection before recommending detectors and control zones. Wired alarms suit many planned or permanent installations, while wireless devices reduce the need to route cables between each component. A hybrid system can retain useful wiring and add wireless equipment where needed. We also consider pets, room layouts and movement patterns so the detector choice reflects how the property is actually occupied.

Choose how your alarm raises the alert

You can select a bells-only alarm for a local audible warning, monitoring for an active response path beyond the premises, or app controls for remote information and management. We explain what each option does and where its limits sit. Installation begins with an agreed design and device positions. We then configure the control settings, test contacts, detectors and sounders, and commission the complete system. During handover, we set up authorised users and explain setting, unsetting and the correct response to alerts or faults.

Frequently asked questions

Should we choose a wired or wireless alarm?

The right choice depends on the building, existing cables, finish and scope for future devices. Wired systems suit many permanent installations, while wireless equipment reduces cable routing. We may recommend a hybrid design when retaining useful wiring makes sense.

Can an alarm work in a home with pets?

Pet-tolerant sensors may be suitable when we know the animal's size, movement and usual rooms. We also assess detector height, room layout and furniture. No detector should be selected on the label alone, so we review the property before specifying it.

What happens during the alarm handover?

We test every agreed zone and alert method, programme authorised users and explain routine operation. You learn how to set and unset the alarm, read common messages and respond to a fault. We also explain future servicing and support options.
