I required a modern state of the art cctv system. I phoned GLD security and spoke to graeme. He arranged to come and see me and explained all the systems available and my options. Graeme and josh came within a few days and installed the system with minimal disruption and to a high standard of workmanship. Once installed graeme explained how to use the system and set eveything up. I Highly recommend graeme and his team at GLD security for all you home security needs. Thanks Graeme once again for your professionalism and knowlage. Matt.

I have had my alarm for months now as I kept forgetting to leave a review and it has been absolutely faultless! Graeme done a really good job of our alarm system. You could see he was taking his time to make everything neat and looking as good as possible. His advice was spot on and really good. I contacted Graeme after the alarm was installed and the service was just as good as it was before installation. Can't recommend him enough :.

Graeme recently installed a replacement alarm system and security light for us. He was extremely friendly and professional from the outset and offered a competitive price. Graeme completed the work in one day and left the house in a tidy state. He made sure that both my husband and I understood how to use the alarm keypad and app before leaving. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Graeme.

Just had an alarm installed by GLD Security. Graeme's own business and was very impressed by all aspects. He installed a security system for me and was an exemplary tradesman. Visited when he said he would both for the estimate and the job. Explained in detail what he thought was the most suitable system for my requirements and did not recommend things that were unnecessary. The work was done promptly and at a very reasonable price. Graeme then explained how the system worked and made sure I was happy with it before he left. He also has a maintenance contract which is good value. Thoroughly recommend!
