Intruder alarms for Halifax buildings
Halifax has some of the finest Georgian and Victorian buildings in Yorkshire, including the Grade I listed Piece Hall, alongside converted mill complexes and modern industrial units.
In period properties we position sensors and wiring carefully, and use wireless devices where cabling would damage original features. For offices we set up user codes and areas so different staff and tenants can set only the parts of the building they use. For industrial units we protect perimeters, roller shutters and yards, and choose detectors that work in large, cold spaces.

Choosing the right alarm grade in Halifax
We start every Halifax 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 Halifax systems to qualify.
Intruder alarm maintenance in Halifax
Monitored alarms normally need two maintenance visits a year and audible-only systems one, which is often a condition of insurance. Halifax is a short drive from our Baildon office, so visits are easy to fit around your opening hours. We also take over systems fitted by other companies. See maintenance contracts.
- App control so you can set, unset and check the alarm from your phone
