I have pets, can I still have a Burglar alarm fitted?
Yes, pet immune detectors can be fitted instead of normal pir's, these detectors if fitted correctly will ignore animals up to a certain weight.Pets can also be kept in one area of the property and this area isolated when setting the alarm.
There is no way of running cables in my property, what are my options?
Cables can be hidden in approx. 95% of properties, to a good degree with minimal disruption.If there are no routes for the running of cables then the only option is to have a wireless system fitted.
How much disruption to my house will there be while my system is being fitted?
It depends on the property,but there will be dust, noise, tools and stepladders about. This disruption will be kept to a minimum.
How long will it take to fit my alarm?
Again, it depends on the property, but the average installation is 1 to 2 days.
My alarm never goes off, so I presume it is ok, is this right?
No,there may be faults with one or more components, making it useless in a genuine alarm situation or power failure. If older than 5 years it should be checked, ideally once a year.
I already have the cables fitted ready for an alarm, does this make it cheaper to have an alarm fitted?
Yes, it makes it easier, quicker and cheaper, with less disruption.
Do you provide remote monitoring of alarms and cctv?
No. We fit only speech, and speech and text diallers.These are connected to the phone line and dial or text customer when system is activated.
Are wireless alarms better than wired alarms?
Wireless alarms are easier to install, and a lot more reliable than in the past,but are not yet as reliable or secure in the long term as a hard wired alarm.
I work 9 to 5, will you come after 5pm, or weekends?
Yes, visits up to 8pm Mon to Sat are available.
