Intruder Alarms & Intruder Detection Systems


Proactively protect people & property with intruder alarms and intruder detection systems.
An intruder alarm – more commonly known as a burglar alarm – consists of control equipment and sensors that activate a loud siren when there is a break in.

The alarm can be securely linked to a monitoring service which in turn contacts nominated keyholders or the police for a swift response. All new systems are connected to a broadband connection for remote notifications via an app.

A smart security system is a highly effective way of deterring and detecting intruders. They are often an insurance policy requirement and can help to reduce insurance premiums.

Qualified & Approved Property Entry System Providers

We are fully qualified to the latest standards to supply and install all intruder alarms and detection systems we provide. As NSI Gold approved installers, we fit, commission and maintain intruder alarm and detection systems to the highest possible industry standard.

Residential intruder alarms

Our full range of home alarm systems help you and your family feel safer and more secure whether you’re at home or not. As well as your home, you can protect outbuildings such as home offices, sheds and garages by linking them to your home’s intruder alarm network. This way, everything is equally protected for complete peace of mind. 

Our pet-friendly systems mean that lively dogs and excitable cats won’t trigger your alarm by accident, saving you the worry and disruption that comes with a false alarm call. In fact, our very low false alarm rates mean you won’t annoy your neighbours with the repeated disturbance of false alarms – so they’re more likely to respond if your alarm does sound.

You can view and control your home alarm system remotely through our app, for complete visibility of what is happening in your home. And because we can integrate wireless burglar alarms with other smart home security systems such as CCTV, motion detectors and automatic gates, you’ll know your home is fully protected with a comprehensive home security system.

Commercial intruder detection

Commercial intruder alarms can serve a range of functions. As well as simply sounding and alerting a remote monitoring service or the police should there be a break-in, your intruder detection can be linked to security fogging systems to protect valuable stock or equipment, and ‘panic buttons’ to call for back-up for staff in vulnerable situations. 

Many intruder alarm models use radio technology, motion sensors and are wire free, making them easy to install and less obtrusive. And with very low false alarm rates, you won’t disrupt your staff, business neighbours or local residents with unnecessary sirens. 

Public sector intruder detection

Intruder detection systems are an important element in the security of many public sector organisations. As well as sounding and alerting a remote monitoring service or the police should there be an unwanted intruder. Your wireless alarm system can be integrated with other security measures. These could include ‘panic buttons’ for staff, patients or residents in vulnerable situations, lockdown alarms and CCTV to call for back-up. 

Many intruder alarm models are wire free smart alarms, making them unobtrusive and easy to install. Our systems have very low false alarm rates, so you disrupt staff or unsettle residents or patients with unnecessary sirens. 

Integrated intruder alarms and intruder detection

As with all our security systems, we can integrate your wireless intruder alarms with other security measures you have in place, such as security cameras and lockdown alarms. We can integrate police response for complete confidence.

Commonly asked questions about intruder alarms



How do intruder alarms work?

Burglar alarm systems work by sounding an alarm when the motion detector senses movement. A smart security system contains many motion detection sensors, alerting you or your neighbours to a potential intruder.

What type of intruder alarm options are available?

There are two main types of intruder alarms – cabled systems and wireless systems. There are also some systems which operate as a hybrid of the two. Many customers prefer wireless options as they’re easy to install and less obtrusive. All of the intruder alarms we provide have a range of sensors. These include motion sensors, contact sensors and entry sensors. They are controlled through a centrally located control panel or through an app. Whichever option you choose, we will ensure your smart alarm system is correctly graded and insurance compliant.

How do I know which intruder alarm is right for my home or business?

The right intruder alarm system for you will depend on several factors, including the style and layout of your property, its location, and the proximity of your neighbours. Our surveyor will discuss your exact requirements and the options available to you. They will also conduct a detailed survey of your property to determine any aspects an intruder could exploit. With this information, we can talk to you about the different options that would suit your home or business so you can make an informed choice about the right intruder alarm or intruder detection system for you.

Which brands of intruder alarm and intruder detection does Absolute Security install?

We supply and install a wide range of intruder alarm brands. These include Texecom, Honeywell Galaxy, Scantronic and Risco. 

What happens if something goes wrong with my intruder detection system?

We offer permanent full parts and labour warranty on all new equipment supplied and installed by us. Therefore, if there is a problem with your burglar alarm system and it is within warranty, we will fix it for you with no questions asked.

Regular servicing and maintenance will ensure your property entry system performs at its best. Therefore, we offer a range of different intruder alarm maintenance packages to cater for different budgets and different needs. This includes a 24-hour, 365 days per year emergency callout with a 4-hour maximum site visit response time for reported faults. And because all our new systems are connected to our engineering department via the cloud, you are guaranteed a prompt response, often without the need for an engineer call-out.

How much does an intruder alarm system cost?

There are two costs associated with an intruder alarm system. The cost of the system itself and the ongoing maintenance and monitoring. 

Because of the range of intruder alarms and the variety of options for each system, it is not possible to give an example cost for a system. However, we will happily chat to you about the range of smart home security system options that might suit your needs and give you a ballpark cost. We provide full quotations with zero obligation to help you budget appropriately and will carry out a free survey of your property to understand your requirements first hand.

To help you spread the cost of your purchase, you can pay for your system over a fixed period of instalments. Unlike some other security companies, you will own your system once you have paid for it in full. 

Which areas do you cover?

We are based in Godalming, near Guildford in Surrey and service clients across the South East including London, East Sussex, West Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire and Berkshire.
