Intruder alarms for Otley buildings
Otley’s town centre is full of independent shops, pubs and cafés in older buildings, with homes and small business units around it. Many need systems that cover flats above shop premises.
For shops we protect stock and stockrooms and can add panic buttons for staff at the counter. For homes we fit alarms that are easy for the whole family to use, with pet-tolerant detectors where needed. For pubs, restaurants and hotels we protect stock, cash and back-of-house areas without disturbing guests.

Choosing the right alarm grade in Otley
We start every Otley job with a security risk assessment. That decides whether a Grade 2 system is enough or your insurer will expect Grade 3. Our Grade 2 vs Grade 3 guide explains the difference.
Monitoring and police response
We fit audible-only, keyholder-monitored and police-response systems. Police response needs an SSAIB or NSI certificated installer, an approved alarm receiving centre and, in most cases, confirmed activations to BS 8243. As an SSAIB certificated company we can design Otley systems to qualify.
