Services
Remote Monitored CCTV
Our remote monitored CCTV systems provide 24/7 live surveillance with HD imaging and smartphone compatibility. These proactive solutions detect incidents in real-time, enabling immediate response to potential threats. Ideal for commercial and residential properties, the systems integrate with other security measures to enhance overall safety and deter criminal activity.
Intruder Alarms
NSI-approved intruder alarm systems offer advanced protection with police response capabilities. Our smart technology detects unauthorised access and triggers instant alerts. Suitable for businesses and homes, these systems reduce insurance costs while providing peace of mind through reliable, round-the-clock security monitoring.
Access Control
We install access control systems with intercoms, biometric readers, and remote management. These solutions regulate entry to buildings and sensitive areas, enhancing security for offices, schools, and industrial sites. Non-contact options and integration with CCTV ensure streamlined, efficient access management tailored to client needs.
Manned Guarding
SIA-licensed uniformed officers provide visible security presence for events, premises, and patrols. Our trained personnel offer keyholding, rapid response, and site inspections. This service ensures immediate intervention during incidents, complementing electronic systems with human expertise and adaptability in dynamic environments.
Rapid Deploy CCTV Tower
Self-contained CCTV towers deploy quickly without power or infrastructure. Ideal for remote or temporary sites, they provide instant surveillance with live monitoring. These units deter vandalism and trespassing in construction zones, vacant properties, and event locations, offering flexible security where traditional systems cannot be installed.
