Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the product and billing.

A wire free alarm installation normally takes half a day and a wired alarm takes a full day. This can be up to 8 Zones of an alarm system and our engineers arrive at your premises between 8:30 – 9:00am to commence installation and complete by 5:00pm. Larger installations will take a second day.

As standard we provide 12 months products warranty. Following the installation – that includes parts and labour charges as a result of faulty equipment or workmanship.

It all depends which one you get. Cheap and unreliable burglar alarms can be prone to false alarms from rogue frequencies. However, professionally supplied wireless alarms that comply with the latest British and European standards are far superior to those available in DIY stores.


If you prefer to have a wireless alarm system, we recommend that we install it so that you also have complete peace of mind. Our engineers carry special equipment to detect test rogue frequencies and test signal strengths to minimise false alarms. Also, if there are any problems we will diagnose and deal with it promptly under the warranty – unlike a DIY system when you are on your own…

Yes, and we always advise you do. Our engineers we will program the system to include only those areas of the premises that you want protected during a night set and exclude others.

If you have a monitored alarm, we normally provide dummy bell boxes and install an internal siren, as your alarm is connected through your telephone line for an emergency response. Dummy bell boxes look identical to real bell boxes. If we install a ‘Bells Only’ alarm, we install a live bell box that also has a strobe unit.
