Alarm systems in Brisbane, the Gold Coast and Redlands

Wired and wireless alarm and intrusion systems for homes and small businesses, installed, set up and explained properly. New systems, upgrades of old ones, and the servicing that keeps them working.

What an alarm installation includes

An alarm system is a control panel, a keypad to arm and disarm it, motion sensors inside, sensors on the doors and windows that matter, and a siren and strobe outside where it can be seen and heard. We work out on site where each sensor needs to go, fit the lot, program it and test it.

Then we walk you through it: arming and disarming, arming just part of the house at night, and what to do when it goes off.

Wired or wireless

We install both. A wired system runs a cable to every sensor and suits a new build, a renovation, or a business that wants a system it can grow. A wireless system needs far less cabling, so it suits a finished home where running cable through walls and ceilings would be difficult or messy.

Which one suits your property is one of the things we will tell you at the quote, and why.

The brands we install

Bosch, Hills, Inner Range and Integriti, plus wireless systems from Dahua, Hikvision, Paradox and Ajax. Not being tied to one brand means we can match the system to the property and the budget, and explain the difference between the options before anything is ordered.

Upgrading or servicing an existing alarm

An old panel, a sensor that keeps setting the alarm off, a siren that has stopped working: we do fault finding and repairs, preventative maintenance, and upgrades or replacements of older alarm systems.

A recent customer had us upgrade the alarm system at their home in Rochedale and wrote in their Google review that “the installation went smoothly and everything was explained clearly to us.”

Alarms and cameras together

An alarm reacts the moment someone gets in; cameras show you who it was and what they did. Because we install both, an alarm and CCTV cameras can be planned together on one visit with one quote, rather than two installers working around each other. The same goes for a video intercom at the front door or access control on a business.

How the free on-site quote works

Every property is different, so we look before we price anything. Ring us, or book a free on-site quote and pick a day that suits. We come out, walk the property with you and work out what it actually needs.

You then get a few options across different brands and specifications, with a price, explained before anything is ordered. Once you are happy, we install it, set it up and take the time at handover to make sure you can use it.

Questions

Alarm systems: common questions

Should I get a wired or a wireless alarm?

It depends on the property. Wired suits a new build, a renovation or a business; wireless suits a finished home where running cable would be difficult. We look on site and recommend one, and explain why.

Can you upgrade my old alarm system?

Yes. Upgrades and replacements of older alarm systems are a regular job, along with fault finding, repairs and preventative maintenance.

Can I control the alarm from my phone?

Many of the systems we install, particularly the wireless ones, can be armed, disarmed and checked from a phone app. Whether that suits you is something we go through at the quote.

Which areas do you cover?

Brisbane, the Gold Coast and Redlands, and everywhere in between. If you are just outside that, ask anyway.
