There are an estimated 8,000 home security companies UK. A vast choice, so which is the best home security company to help and advise you?

• To select the perfect and most economical burglar alarm system for your home.

• Provide the most efficient service, with after-sales care and attention.

Consider These Points When it comes to home security many people choose the cheaper option. Remember you only get what you pay for, a quality alarm system doesn’t come cheap.

The Association of British Insurers (ABI) recommend that, if you are considering installing a burglar alarm for your home, get advice from your insurers first.
Many insurance companies insist that only companies registered with the National Approval Council for Security Systems (NACOSS) carry out the installation of alarms.

Why not try to find your best security company by recommendation? Ask your friends and neighbours for a judgment of their installed alarm systems, and annual maintenance costs.You can also consult your local police crime prevention officer, who will be pleased to advise you.

Obtain at least three surveys with in depth quotations, which include not only prices, but also the equipment to be installed, description of the work entailed, and a guarantee that the system will be installed to comply with the relevant British and European Standards.

During the survey, request that the main control panel is concealed, or at least out of reach. This is the hub of your alarm system, where a burglar can terminate your bells and internal sounders in a few seconds. It is wise to protect the access to this main control panel with a detector.
