When should you hire a CCTV and alarm installer?
Consider a professional installer when you want reliable home or business security, your insurer requires a certified alarm, or you need a monitored system with a proper response. Professional installation also helps avoid false alarms and ensures CCTV is set up responsibly.
How to choose a CCTV and alarm installer
For a monitored system with police response, the installer must be certified by the National Security Inspectorate (NSI) or the SSAIB — both UKAS-accredited, with regular independent audits (NSI offers Silver and Gold grades). If your CCTV can see beyond your boundary, choose an installer who follows the ICO’s guidance on domestic CCTV and data protection.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need an accredited installer for police response?
Yes. Monitored alarms only qualify for police response when installed and maintained by an NSI or SSAIB certified company.
Is CCTV that overlooks my neighbour legal?
You can use CCTV, but if it captures areas beyond your boundary you must follow data protection rules, including informing people and handling footage responsibly.
Will an alarm reduce my home insurance?
Some insurers offer discounts for professionally installed and maintained alarms — check your policy before you buy.
