Deep South alarms deal with a few things city systems don’t. Baboons in Simon’s Town and Kommetjie set off outdoor beams and sometimes get inside through open windows. Holiday homes in Kalk Bay and Scarborough stand empty for weeks, so you need to know if something happens. And damp sea air slowly corrodes sensors and batteries in unused houses.
We set up alarms that tell you what matters. See our main alarm system installation service.
We choose detectors that can be set to ignore larger animals where possible, add app alerts for empty homes and check that backup batteries will last through outages.
Paradox, IDS or Texecom panels with indoor and outdoor detection, app control and armed response links.
False alarms, damp-damaged sensors, faulty zones and flat batteries fixed.
App alerts, remote arming and pre-season checks for homes that stand empty.

What far south homeowners ask us most.
Outdoor detectors can’t always tell a baboon from a person, so placement and zoning matter. We mount detectors where animals are less likely to pass, adjust sensitivity and put outdoor areas on their own zone. That way you and your armed response know it was the garden, not inside the house.
Yes. With a compatible panel and communicator, you get instant app notifications when a zone triggers, and you can arm or disarm from anywhere. Pair it with CCTV and you can check what caused the alert before deciding whether to call someone out.
It depends on the battery size and how many devices the panel powers. A healthy battery covers normal outages, but batteries weaken over time and in damp conditions. We test yours on site and recommend a replacement or larger battery if it won’t hold up.
Yes. We test the panel, sensors, battery, siren and communicator, explain the fault clearly and quote before we start. If the system isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you honestly and explain which parts can be reused in an upgrade to keep the cost down.
