Intruder alarm installation and monitoring in Bradford, Leeds and West Yorkshire
Graded burglar alarms for homes and businesses, with app control and optional monitoring. We are SSAIB certified for intruder alarms, so the systems we install can qualify for police response.
The right system for your building, fitted and looked after properly.
An intruder alarm only works if it is the right system for the building and people actually use it. We look at how you get in and out, where the valuables are and what your insurer asks for, then design a system that is simple for you and your staff to set every day.
We install wired, wireless and hybrid systems from manufacturers such as Orisec and Pyronix, with app control so you can set, unset and check the alarm from your phone. We also look after intruder alarm systems across Bradford Council buildings and schools.
Because we are SSAIB certified for intruder alarms, the systems we install can be registered for police response where they meet the confirmation requirements.
The systems we install
Wired systems
The most robust option for new builds, refurbishments and commercial premises where cables can be run neatly.
Wireless systems
Quick to install with very little disruption. A good fit for homes and occupied buildings.
Hybrid systems
A wired panel with wireless devices where cabling is difficult, such as outbuildings or listed rooms.
Monitored alarms
Signals go to an alarm receiving centre, which contacts keyholders or the police, depending on the response you choose.
Smart app control
Set, unset and check the system from your phone, with notifications when it is set, unset or activated.
Audible-only systems
Bells and sirens to deter intruders, for lower-risk premises where monitoring is not required.
Security grades under BS EN 50131
We recommend the right one after the site survey, based on your building, your risk assessment and your insurer.
How it works
Free site survey
We visit, look at how the building is used and what your fire risk assessment or insurer asks for.
Written quote
You get a fixed, itemised quote before any work starts, with the system explained in plain English.
Installation
Our own engineers fit the system, working around your opening hours where we can.
Commissioning and handover
We test everything, hand over certificates and drawings, and show you how to use it.
Maintenance
We look after it with planned servicing, reminders and a 24/7 fault line for customers.
What a service visit includes
We put you on a maintenance plan, book the visits, remind you when they are due and keep the paperwork your fire risk assessment or insurer asks for. We take over systems fitted by other companies too.
Existing customers can call us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on 01274 599888 if something fails.
What you need to know
We work to PD 6662:2017 and BS EN 50131.
Insurance
Many insurers specify a minimum grade and a maintained system. Check your policy before choosing a system, or send it to us and we will check it for you.
Police response
To get police response, the system must be installed by an NSI or SSAIB certified company, monitored and able to confirm a genuine alarm.
Maintenance
Intruder alarms should be serviced at least once a year. Monitored systems may need more frequent checks, and we will confirm what yours needs.

Intruder alarms questions
What grade of intruder alarm do I need?
Most homes need a Grade 2 system. Many businesses, and most insurers for commercial premises, ask for Grade 3. We confirm the right grade during the free survey.
Can I get police response?
Yes, if the system is installed by a certified company like us, is monitored by an alarm receiving centre and meets the confirmation requirements. We will explain what this involves for your premises.
Can I control my alarm from my phone?
Yes. The systems we fit can be set, unset and checked from an app, and can notify you when something happens.
Will pets set off the alarm?
Not if the right detectors are used. We fit pet-tolerant detectors where needed and position them carefully.
Can you take over my existing alarm?
In most cases, yes. We will inspect it, tell you whether it can be maintained or upgraded, and take over the servicing.
How often does an intruder alarm need servicing?
At least once a year. Monitored systems and those with police response may need more frequent checks, which we will confirm for your system.
