The Importance of Intruder Alarm Servicing
Intruder alarms are a fundamental part of any security system within a business or commercial property. Their primary purpose is to detect potential intruders and alert property owners or emergency services, thus preventing theft, vandalism or other unauthorized activities. However, for these security systems to function effectively, regular intruder alarm servicing is essential.
Proper intruder alarm servicing ensures that all components of the alarm system are in good working order. It involves a thorough inspection and testing of the system, identifying any faults or wear and tear that could compromise its performance.
Regular servicing is not just about fixing problems but also about preventative maintenance. This proactive approach helps in minimizing the chances of false intruder alarms, which can be both inconvenient and costly, especially if they result in unnecessary emergency call-outs each time.
Our Intruder Alarm Servicing Process
Intruder alarm maintenance is a critical aspect of any security system. Regular maintenance ensures that the alarm is always ready to perform when needed.
Our intruder alarm system servicing process includes:
- Check the installation, location and siting of all equipment and devices against the specification if available due to possible changes (new Partitions etc) which could affect the performance of the detection devices.
- Check the satisfactory operation of all detection devices, Pirs, Door contacts, panic devices.
- Inspect all flexible connections and clean devices, where practically possible and denote any deficiency on work sheets/PDA.
- Check mains and standby power supplies including correct operations charging rates to ensure system standby in the event of main failure (if applicable)
- Check control unit for correct operation, setting and un-setting and visual indication
- Check audible signalling equipment if applicable, bells sounders
- Test remote signalling equipment to Central Station (channels tested i.e., fire raid open/close etc) if applicable
- Check the alarm system is fully operational and return to customer mode.
Emergency Call-Outs and Repairs
No matter how well-maintained an alarm system is, there may still be occasions when something goes wrong. In such cases, emergency callouts are essential.
Here at Sovereign Fire and Security, we offer intruder alarm technical support, ensuring that any issues are dealt with promptly. This quick response helps restore the system’s functionality and maintain the security of your business premises
We also offer repairs, whether it’s a minor fix or a significant overhaul, timely repairs ensure that your alarm system continues to operate effectively.
Regular maintenance visits often include minor repairs, but sometimes more extensive work is needed, especially if the system is older or has been exposed to harsh environmental conditions.
The recommended service frequency depends on the variety of intruder alarms you have. For alarms that function only to sound, services are typically recommended annually. More advanced systems, such as those that also alert authorities, should be serviced twice each year.

In addition to servicing, we also offer industry-leading intruder alarm system installation for businesses and commercial properties that are NSI Gold-approved meaning all of our systems meet the highest of industry standards and are compliant with NSI and ACPO with a Certificate of Compliance.
