Services
Intruder Alarms
Our intruder alarm systems provide discreet yet effective protection for homes and businesses. Using advanced sensors and wireless technology, these systems detect unauthorised entry while minimising false alarms. Custom installations ensure coverage of all entry points, with options for perimeter protection and police response integration. Systems comply with PD 6662:2004 standards for insurance requirements.
CCTV Systems
Blackburn Alarms offers high-quality CCTV installations with IP and wireless options. Our systems enable 24/7 property monitoring through HD cameras connected to cloud storage or local recording devices. Commercial installations support multi-site management, while domestic systems integrate with smart home technology. All installations meet UK data protection regulations for privacy compliance.
Fire Alarms
We provide automatic and manual fire alarm systems compliant with UK building regulations. Our installations include heat detectors, smoke sensors, and voice alarm systems for commercial premises. Wireless options reduce installation disruption while maintaining reliability. Systems integrate with emergency lighting and fire extinguisher networks for comprehensive fire safety management.
Access Control
Our access control solutions use biometric readers, keypads, and proximity cards to manage building entry. Systems support time-based access restrictions and audit trail generation for compliance purposes. Integration with CCTV and intruder alarms creates layered security for commercial properties. We install Paxton-certified systems with scalable configurations for growing businesses.
Security Fog
Security fog systems deploy dense glycol vapour to disorient intruders within seconds of alarm activation. These SmokeCloak installations protect high-value assets in commercial premises by obscuring visibility while triggering immediate evacuation. Systems operate independently of power supplies and maintain fog for 45 minutes. Insurance premium reductions are available for approved installations.
