It is essential to select a security or fire service provider that you can be entirely confident with to maximise your protection and reduce your risk. These are just some of the questions you should be asking any company you are considering to install your system. As a  NSI NACOSS Gold Systems approved company Loc-Out can answer 'YES' to all these questions
  • Capable of meeting the standards of workmanship and service you would expect?  Properly security vetting all relevant staff to British Standards?  Operating a 24 hour call out service and able to respond within 4 hours? Fully insured? Rigorously inspected twice a year to ensure standards are maintained? completing a thorough security survey and  Risk Assessment of your property? Installing reliable, up to date equipment? Issuing you with a Certificate of Compliance for your system? Offering you a maintenance contract? Meeting the stringent requirements of the Police or your insurers ?
  • Operating to the highest level of business excellence through achievement of industry specific IOS 9001 Quality Management (Nacoss Gold only)?
    • The type of alarm and other electronic security solutions you choose is very important.   However, if you want it to be effective and meet the requirements of your Insurers or the Police , it is important that the system is installed and maintained in accordance with the required standards by a competent installation company approved by NSI.  Many Companies or individuals will tell you they can install an alarm, often cheaply, but are they:
    So what can you do?  There are a number of security measures you should consider, including ensuring you have adequate physical security, such as locks, fitted.  Intruder alarms not only provide a deterrent, but provide a warning that an intrusion is taking place.  However, alarms and other electronic security devices, including CCTV and Access Control Systems, need to meet a high standard of installation and be regularly maintained to be effective.   The only way to ensure this is to get a professionally installed electronic security system.
    Protecting your home and business premises from intruders is of paramount importance.  It’s not just the financial loss a break-in causes, but also the emotional impact and disruption it can have. Choosing the right system or service will help protect your home or organisation against security and fire incidents as well as helping to reduce the cost and disruption should one take place.  Most of us do not always consider the implications of a break-in - until it is too late.
