Qolsys Burglar Alarms
Our Qolsys IQ4 systems use PowerG technology with 128-bit encryption and 8-year battery sensors. These smart alarms integrate with cameras and home automation via the Alarm.com app. Designed for homes and businesses, they offer dual-path communication via WiFi and SIM card to ensure reliability post-2025 PSTN switch-off.
ADC WiFi Cameras
Alarm.com WiFi cameras provide 24/7 recording with motion-triggered alerts and onboard video storage. Featuring perimeter guard analytics, they minimise false alarms while enabling remote viewing and two-way audio. Ideal for properties requiring PSTN-independent surveillance with smartphone control.
Gate Automation
We install NICE and CAME gate systems with underground or surface-mounted motors for swing gates, and ground-fixed solutions for sliding gates. These durable automation systems enhance security and convenience, compatible with access control integration for residential and commercial properties.
Access Control
Our Paxton-based access control systems manage entry via proximity fobs and PIN keypads. Designed for commercial buildings, they reduce key replacement costs and allow time-based door scheduling. Systems support individual or grouped access permissions for enhanced security management.
Wellness Solutions
These smart wellness systems combine fall detection pendants, motion sensors, and predictive analytics to monitor vulnerable individuals. Notifications alert caregivers to unusual activity patterns, providing proactive support while maintaining user privacy through encrypted data transmission.
