Purchasing a house alarm system is an important investment in protecting your family home.
However, there are a number of elements that affect the cost of a home alarm system. Let's get a better idea of how much a bespoke system will cost you.
It's Christmas! The office team are having a well earned break from the 24th Dec to 3rd Jan but we've always got you covered! Here's your emergency contacts...
We were contacted by the owner of a detached house in Leigh on Sea.
Their existing intruder alarm system had been installed in 2011. It had become unreliable. And was in serious need of an upgrade to ensure the house was always well protected.
We were asked to quote for an intruder alarm for a detached house in Thorpe Bay. There was no existing security and the owner wanted an alarm system for safety
The Facilities Manager for a special education school in Colchester, Essex, approached us. They are an existing customer. We already provide annual maintenance and monitoring. But they wanted to upgrade the School's existing old intruder alarm system.
When you're researching a product or a service, like home security, cost is always a consideration. It's natural to want to get an idea of the outlay to set your budget.
You'd be within your rights to assume that a company providing security systems for many years could comfortably give you a reasonably accurate quote on the phone.
But, if you made that assumption, you'd be wrong. Choosing a security installer who offers over-the-phone quotes could be a critical mistake.
For many industries, accreditations from governing bodies or trade associations are the only way of ensuring that a company provides a quality service. Security company accreditations - covering burglar alarms, CCTVand access control- are no different. So why do we insist on NSI Gold, SSAIB and other accreditations?
