Private residences

Fire and security for high-end homes and private estates

Discreet, intelligent systems designed around the individual property: commercial-grade technology, carefully considered installation and protection that does not change the character of the house.

Approach

Designed for the property, not the catalogue

Every system is designed around the house and how it is lived in. Early detection and protection, installed so the fabric and appearance of the property are respected.

We work alongside smart-home integrators, AV specialists, architects and electrical contractors so fire, security and the wider technology in the property are considered together from the design stage rather than retrofitted around each other.

Integration

  • Compatible smart-home and home automation systems
  • Alarm events triggering lighting, gates and notifications
  • CCTV verification of alarm events
  • Work alongside architects and M&E contractors

What we provide

Protection that extends beyond the alarm panel

A private house has the same life safety obligations as a small commercial building, plus the expectation that none of it is visible.

Perimeter and external detection

Remotely monitored perimeter CCTV with visual verification, positioned so it protects the property without becoming the first thing a visitor notices.

Intruder detection and access

Intelligent intruder detection, access control, automated gates and video intercoms, designed to be used by the household rather than by an engineer.

Fire detection, monitored 24/7

Commercial-grade wireless fire alarm systems with 24/7 remote monitoring, so a detection event reaches a response path even when the house is empty.

Water and environmental protection

Intelligent flood detection integrated with automatic water shut-off valves, alongside security events that can trigger other actions in the property.

How it starts

A conversation, then a survey

Residential work is rarely a standard package. Tell us about the property, who lives there and what you want the system to do.

  • The property. Age, construction, listed status and any planned works or refurbishment.
  • The household. How often the house is occupied, who needs access and who should be contacted first.
  • The priorities. Intrusion, fire, water damage or all three, and whether monitoring is wanted when the house is empty.

Speak to our residential team

Send a short description of the property and we will arrange a survey at a time that suits.
