Security systems for Edinburgh properties
Burglar alarms
Intruder alarms with detectors, a keypad and a bell box, designed around the layout of your flat, house, shop or office.
Burglar alarm installationMonitoring and police response
Your alarm can be audible only, or monitored around the clock by SMC, our Alarm Receiving Centre. Police response is available for systems that meet Police Scotland’s requirements.
How monitoring worksCCTV
We plan each camera around what you need to see, such as faces at a shop door or vehicles in a yard, and you can watch live or recorded footage on your phone.
CCTV installationDoor entry and access control
Audio and video entry panels for tenement stairs and blocks of flats, with a handset in each flat. In offices, keypad, fob or card readers control who gets through each staff door.

Questions about security in Edinburgh
Answers to common questions. For anything else, just call.
Do you cover all of Edinburgh?
Yes. We cover the whole city, including South Queensferry, Cramond, Leith, Portobello and Colinton.
Can you fit an alarm in a listed or period property?
Yes. Edinburgh has over 4,500 listed buildings, and in homes like these a wireless system means no floorboards come up and no plaster is cut. Ask the council whether a bell box on a listed front needs consent before we fix it.
Can you replace the door entry on our stair?
Yes. We survey the stair, then quote for the entry panel, a handset in each flat and fob or code entry if you want it.
