Alarm and CCTV together

Your home, protected as one complete system

Buying security devices one at a time often leaves you with several apps, gaps in coverage and nobody to call when something stops working.

Our home security systems are planned as a whole from the start. We look at how people approach and enter your home, where valuables and vehicles are kept, and how your household lives day to day, then combine the right alarm and cameras into one dependable system.

You get one installer, one point of contact and a system that’s simple for everyone at home to use.

Why combine them

Why choose an alarm and CCTV together?

When every part of your security is planned together, your home is better protected and the system is far easier to live with.

No gaps between devices

Cameras and detectors are positioned to complement each other, so coverage is joined up.

Fewer apps to juggle

Where equipment allows, we design for one or two apps rather than a separate app for every gadget.

One number to call

One team installs and supports the whole system, so you always know who to speak to.

Alerts that make sense

Notifications are set up so you’re told about what matters, not every passing car.

Protection at home and away

Part-set the alarm at night and check your cameras from anywhere, even on holiday.

Room to grow

Start with the essentials and add cameras or detectors later as your needs change.

System building blocks

The building blocks of a home security system

Every home is different, so systems are built from these elements in the combination that suits you.

Detect

Intruder alarm

The foundation of most systems, with motion detectors and door contacts linked to a control panel.

Detection options
  • Pet-tolerant motion detectors

    Protect rooms and landings without false alarms from pets.

  • Door and window contacts

    Instant warning when a protected opening is used.

  • Outbuilding detectors

    Extend protection to garages, sheds and workshops.

Part-set modes

Protect downstairs at night or outbuildings during the day while you move freely elsewhere.

See

CCTV cameras

HD and 4K cameras covering the driveway, front door, garden and side access, with secure recording.

Camera choices
  • Colour night vision cameras

    Useful, detailed footage after dark.

  • Floodlight cameras

    Motion lighting and recording in a single unit.

Secure recording

Footage is stored on a recorder in your home, sized to suit you, and is easy to play back and export.

Control

App control

Set the alarm and view cameras from your phone, with alerts when something needs your attention.

Everyday control
  • Key fobs and tags

    Quick setting and unsetting as you come and go.

  • Tuned alerts

    Notifications for what matters, not every passing car.

  • Remote setting

    Check and set the alarm from anywhere on app-enabled systems.

Household access

Separate users and permissions for family members, carers or cleaners, so access is easy to manage.

Living with your system

Home security that works around your life

A system you understand and trust is a system you’ll use. Here’s how an alarm and CCTV system fits into everyday life.

Front door

Protecting your front door

Your front door is where most visitors arrive. A well-placed camera records everyone who approaches, and a door contact tells the alarm the moment the door opens while it’s set.

We plan camera angles and detector positions together, so the front of your home is covered without filming the street or your neighbours.

  • Camera covering the approach
  • Door contact on the alarm
  • A record of every caller

App control

Everything in your pocket

Set and unset the alarm, check the cameras and receive alerts from your phone or tablet, all set up during your handover.

Each member of the household can have their own access, and we’ll show everyone how the system works before we leave.

Away from home

Peace of mind when you’re away

Whether you’re at work, on holiday or visiting family, you can see your home is secure and be alerted the moment anything changes.

If an alert comes in, you can check the cameras straight away, and trusted keyholders can be given access if needed.

It depends on your home, but a typical system combines an intruder alarm with CCTV cameras covering entrances and outdoor areas. Everything is planned together, so the cameras and detectors cover each other’s gaps and work as one system.

Where the equipment allows, we design systems so the alarm and cameras can be managed from as few apps as possible, ideally one. We will be upfront about which equipment shares an app and which needs its own.

Not always. An alarm detects and deters a break-in as it happens, while CCTV records what happened and lets you check in remotely. Many homes benefit from both, but we will only recommend what your property actually needs.

A well-designed system keeps protecting your home locally. Cameras can continue recording to the on-site recorder and alarms run on backup batteries. Remote viewing and app notifications resume when the connection returns. Ask us about backup options such as mobile signalling.

Yes. Wireless alarms and discreet cameras are well suited to flats and rented homes. Tenants should get the landlord’s permission first, and we can suggest options that minimise drilling and are easy to remove.
