How We’re Keeping Coventry Homes Secure: Real Installs, Real Results

Looking for trusted home security in Coventry? Here’s how we’ve helped local families feel safer with tailored alarm installations - from emergency upgrades to proactive protection. All backed by expert advice, real technology and real peace of mind.

What kind of security help are Coventry homeowners asking for?

We’ve been called out to hundreds of Coventry properties - from period terraces in Earlsdon to new builds in Walsgrave. Here are three real-world scenarios where we’ve made a big difference:

Scenario 1: “Our alarm failed just before we flew out”

Problem: A Coventry customer rang us in a panic. Their old wired system had gone down the night before a family holiday.

What we did: Steve reshuffled the diary and got Kev out the next morning. We installed a full wireless HKC upgrade with shock sensors and SecureComm app control. No wires, no hassle, and back up and running in under 3 hours.

Result: They left for the airport knowing their home was protected and they’d get instant alerts if anything happened.

Scenario 2: “We’ve just moved and inherited a mess of wires”

Problem: A couple relocating to Binley Woods found a defunct 20-year-old system with no manual, no codes - and no peace of mind.

What we did: We did a full property walkthrough with Mick (our ex-police security expert), identifying weak points. The old system was replaced with a tidy wireless setup, pet-friendly sensors, and perimeter protection that works before someone breaks in.

Result: They love the easy arming at night and the app that gives them control on the go.

Scenario 3: “We needed a system my elderly mum could actually use”

Problem: One family in Coundon was worried about their mum, who lives alone. Her old alarm had confusing controls, and she wasn’t using it at all.

What we did: We installed a new HKC wireless system with a simple key fob and SecureComm app access for both mum and her daughter. Now it’s one button to arm at night and instant phone alerts if anything happens.

Result: Reassurance for the family, and independence for mum. Everyone sleeps easier.

What’s really happening with crime in Coventry?

We’re often asked if home security is actually necessary in Coventry - and the truth is, yes.

While Coventry is a great place to live, the latest data from West Midlands Police shows that burglary and attempted break-ins are still a weekly occurrence in many areas, including:

• Holbrooks

• Radford

• Tile Hill

• Coundon
  

Fast Fact: According to official police.uk stats, there were over 1,100 reports of residential burglary in Coventry in the last 12 months.

Most break-ins happen when no one’s home - and often through unsecured back doors or windows. That’s why we always recommend perimeter protection and visible deterrents like bell boxes.

We know having trades in your home can be a bit daunting - but don’t worry, we keep things simple and stress-free.

Here’s how it usually goes:

• Arrival on time: Our engineer (usually Kevin or Sharpie) will turn up when we say we will - no waiting around all day.

• Walkthrough first: Before touching a tool, we’ll walk through your property with you to confirm sensor placements, entry points and any personal preferences.

• Tidy, efficient install: Most alarm installs are done within 2 - 4 hours. No mess, no cables everywhere. We treat your home with the same care we would our own.

• Full setup & demo: We’ll install the SecureComm app on your phone and walk you through how to arm/disarm, set night mode and get alerts. You’ll be confident before we leave.

• Peace of mind included: We won’t disappear after the job. Need help later? Just give us a call - we’re known for looking after our customers long after install day.
