What does a burglar alarm installation cost in Birmingham?

Costs vary based on property size, the number of sensors (e.g., doors, windows, outbuildings), and any add-ons such as CCTV or perimeter protection. Book a free survey and we’ll provide a fixed quote for your Birmingham home.

Can I install a burglar alarm myself or should I hire a professional?

DIY kits exist, but professional installation ensures correct coverage, tidy fitting, and compliance with insurer expectations. Our engineers design the system around your property and set everything up for reliable everyday use.

How do I monitor my alarm remotely?

Our HKC SecureComm app lets you set and unset your system from anywhere and receive instant mobile notifications if the alarm is triggered. If you choose camera PIRs, you can also get image verification with your alerts.

Are burglar alarms worth it in low-crime parts of Birmingham?

Yes. A visible, professionally installed system acts as a strong deterrent and adds a rapid-alert layer if someone tampers with doors or windows. Perimeter protection can trigger before an intruder gets inside.

How quickly can you install in Birmingham?

After your free on-site survey, most wireless systems are fitted in a single visit with minimal disruption. We’ll agree an installation date that suits you and handle setup, testing and app onboarding on the day.

Do you offer pet-friendly sensors?

Yes. We can specify pet-tolerant motion sensors and use perimeter protection so pets can move about without causing false alarms while your home stays protected.

Do you cover new-build developments around Birmingham?

We regularly install in Birmingham and surrounding areas, including new-build sites. We’ll tailor an alarm to your property’s layout and hand over with clear app training.

How can you protect your Birmingham home with a security system?

You want your burglar alarm to do 3 things...

1. Act as a visible deterrent – a professional LED bell box fitted on your Birmingham property tells intruders to move on.

We provide burglar alarm installation with a professional, LED flashing bell box fitted to the front of your property so that a potential intruder can see clearly that your home is protected.

Bell boxes also serve another important purpose - the noise of a loudly sounding alarm is often enough to scare the intruder away, making sure they don't have free reign on your property.

2. Stop intruders before they get inside – shock sensors on doors and windows trigger instantly at the first sign of tampering.

This is, in our opinion, THE most vital part of any home alarm system...

Perimeter protection is vital if you want to truly secure your home. We fit shock sensors to your vulnerable entry points (such as windows and patio doors) that detect either direct impact or a build up of vibrations (such as someone trying to tamper with a lock).

This sensor being triggered will sound the alarm ensuring the burglar is stopped BEFORE they get into your home!

3. Give you full control with instant updates – the HKC SecureComm app lets you set/unset your alarm remotely and see alerts in real time.
