Fire & security for your home
Your home should feel safe, secure, and protected, always. From door sensors to full alarm systems, our residential services are designed for comfort, convenience, and 24/7 peace of mind. We make security simple, discreet, and effective.
Fire
From detection through to suppression, we design, install, and maintain complete fire safety systems for Scottish homes and businesses. Our fire alarm work is delivered under Bell’s BAFE-registered fire alarm service, so you get independent proof the job meets a recognised standard, all from one accountable contractor.
Fire Alarms
We design, install, and maintain fire alarm systems to the British Standard for fire detection. Book a free survey and we'll get the scope right before you commit.
Fire Extinguishers
We supply, install, and service portable fire extinguishers in line with the relevant standards. One supplier for your extinguishers, alarms, and emergency lighting.
Smoke Detectors
We fit smoke detection that gives early warning of fire, sized to how your building is used. Add it to a wider fire system or fit it as a standalone upgrade.
Sprinklers
We install and maintain sprinkler systems that hold a fire back before it spreads. Designed around your building and the risks inside it.
Dry Risers
We install, test, and maintain dry risers so firefighters have a reliable water supply on the upper floors. Regular testing keeps them ready and compliant.
Fire Doors
We service and inspect fire doors so they hold back smoke and flames when it matters. Faults get logged and closed out, not left sitting on a report.
Emergency Lighting
We install and maintain emergency lighting to the British Standard, so people can leave safely if the power fails. Tested on schedule, with the paperwork to prove it.
Fire & Security for your business
Whether you run a retail shop, manage an office, or oversee an industrial site, we deliver fire and security systems that protect your people, premises, and compliance. Scalable, smart, and designed for your operations.
Security
We design, install, and monitor security systems for homes and businesses across Scotland. NSI Gold certified, with local engineers and 24/7 response, so your alarm does its job on the day it counts, not just on the day it was fitted.
Burglar Alarms
We design and install intruder alarms for homes and business premises, from a single house to a large industrial site. NSI Gold certified, with smart integration where you want it.
Access Control
We fit access control that decides who gets through which door, from keypads to card entry and biometrics. A strong fit for schools, clinics, and multi-zone sites.
CCTV
We install HD CCTV with night vision, motion detection, and remote viewing from your phone. Watch one site or a whole portfolio from anywhere.
Alarm Monitoring
Our 24/7 monitoring means a real response when your alarm activates, not just a notification you might miss. Activations are escalated in line with the agreed protocol.
Electrical Safety
Our qualified electricians handle the wiring behind your fire and security systems, plus standalone electrical work. Delivered under Bell's SELECT membership.
Residential
Real protection for your home, installed properly and left tidy. Clear pricing, no upselling, and a team you can call with questions afterwards.
