About Us
Alarm Protect is a relatively new innovative and forward thinking company, which is already showing signs of good sustainable organic growth, mainly due to its close relationships with clients, and innovating ways in which the company look at strategic growth; utilising an extremely emergent strategic view, which harmonises with the ever changing world of security and its related threats.
Unlike most Alarm Receiving Centre's (ARC's) and Remote Video Receiving Centre’s (RVRC's) Alarm Protect started life on the Response side of Alarms, moving to Monitoring, then Maintenance and Installation. This is unique to the industry and means that we have a fresh way of looking at the industry with a holistic view.
Alarm Protect cater for all types of clients big and small commercial and domestic. We operate with a 'can do' attitude and understand that many of our jobs have an urgent aspect attached to them, we are happy to work out of hours to ensure minimal disruption to our clients.
The requirements of modern security systems operating over IP infrastructures and complex computing systems has given us an opportunity to invest heavily in systems, equipment and staff. The experience and knowledge of the combined security and IT teams are of such great benefit to any industry and is a unique proposition for your company.
The Alarm Protect team comprises of staff members from many business backgrounds and industry disciplines. All members of staff are vetted to security standard BS7858 as a matter of course. Our Directors all specialise in mutually beneficial areas and have a thorough understanding of risk and project management.

“Technology is an exciting and helpful tool in this area of work and since Alarm Protect took off, we’ve been re-defining and developing solutions to make the technology work harder. Finding ways to optimise value for money by mixing technologies allows budgets to provide more resources for the security response and that’s we’re excited about working in this industry”

“The security industry is getting bigger every day, which is great for Alarm Protect. It drives us to ensure we are on the cutting edge and always one step ahead of any threat.
