One low price to have guaranteed reliable home security for many years to come.

A major alarm service ensures that your home security system is working without a hitch, and makes sure that your alarm is acting as a powerful deterrent.

Top 5 tips to improve home security

1). Make sure all doors and windows are fully locked at all times - especially at night. This is an obvious one, but it makes far more of a difference than many people think! If someone notices an unlocked door or window, then it can turn a passerby into an opportunistic thief, where they may have had no intention of even thinking about breaking into your home originally. A lot of burglaries occur when a thief simply walks in through an unlocked door.

2). Keep expensive belongings out of view. If a Laptop is left on a table at night, then to a burglar he may be only one smashed window away from an easy steal! With such easy opportunities, a thief can be in and out of your home within seconds. Keep belongings out of view and close curtains/blinds at night.

3). Keep house keys and car keys out of easy reach. With the advent of modern vehicle security, many car thieves are now stealing keys from inside the home instead of attempting to bypass the increasingly difficult security systems. A lot of people leave their car keys and house keys near the front door which can make them very easy to steal. Keep all keys hidden and well out of reach from your letterbox or any nearby windows.

4). Consider using timers on lights and radios. Ideally your house should appear in use at all times. If a burglar can learn when the house is guaranteed to be empty for long periods of time, then they can plan a burglary and feel confident that they will not be disturbed until they're finished. If your curtains are drawn and a light is on inside the home, this will act as a very powerful deterrent - even if you're not actually there.

5). Order a major alarm service. If you received our letter, this means that your alarm was installed many years ago, and now needs a major service to make sure that it will continue to work flawlessly in the future. It also needs a service to ensure that it complies with recent laws, and that it continues to act as a powerful deterrent.

How does your current bell box look? The truth about deterrents

An installation of a new bell box may deter a thief from even attempting to break into your home, whereas beforehand, they may have seen a worn and old alarm system as a minimal threat. A major alarm service will show burglars that your alarm is up to date and is GUARANTEED to sound if they break in.

The major alarm service may be required to comply with the law

Legislation was passed only recently which banned alarms from sounding for more than 15 minutes. This is to make sure that alarms don't act as a nuisance - especially in the case of false alarms. As your alarm was installed by us long before this legislation was introduced, it may sound for longer than 15 minutes. This means that the council could levy heavy fines for noise pollution. The major alarm service will ensure that the circuitry will cut the alarm siren after 15 minutes to comply with the law.

How the major alarm service works

1). Our expert technicians will arrive and begin analysing your alarm system to assess the reliability and check if any faults are present.

2). If any faults are present, then they will be fixed with either reprogramming or a replacement of select parts.

3). The entire main bell box will be replaced on the front of the property. This includes a brand new top-spec siren, strobe light and battery. This bell box will also have a 15 minute cut-off switch to comply with the law.

4). The dummy box on the back of your home will be replaced so it looks brand new and up-to-date.

5). Our technicians will then replace the back-up battery within the control panel, and re-program the system with the 15 minute siren shutdown to comply with legislation.

6). We will carry out any further upgrades if requested at an additional cost. This can include anything to do with the alarm or sensors. For example, if you want the upstairs sensors disabled at night, pet tolerant sensors installed, or an additional sensor for your garage or another room, then we can do that for you.

7). If you need the code reset/changed, or you need help with using the alarm, our technicians can talk you through it.

8). Once your alarm system has been serviced and everything is up-to-date, we will give you a 12 month maintenance guarantee on all call-outs, parts and labour.
