Everyone should feel safe in their own home. Wakefield Security have been helping their customers keep it that way since 1988, with home security systems such as intruder alarms, CCTV and personal protection. You have your security alarm fitted, You're safe, so why is it so important to get it serviced annually? Did you know when errors are unresolved, the life expectancy of your system decreases and you're more vulnerable to your system becoming ineffective. We know how rewarding running your own business can be.
Established by John Wakefield in 1988, Wakefield Security is now one of the largest security companies in the South. For over twenty-five years we have worked with large organisations, small businesses and private individuals to protecting people and properties.
We at Wakefield's have said goodbye to traditional CCTV as we know it. Most CCTV systems alert your smart-phone that there is someone on your property. Nothing new there I hear you say. Many of the cheaper camera systems advertised on TV do this, and you are absolutely right they do. But what they don't tell you on those TV adverts is that these cameras work on motion and as such inform you every time that something moves on the picture. And so every time the wind blows and trees and plants move, every time next door's cat walks past, every time it rains or snows, you get a notification.
A professionally installed CCTV system from us provideseven greater deterrent to would-be criminals. But it is more than just another level of protection. It doesn't just let you view your business from anywhere, it doesn't just record incidents. We at Wakefield's have said goodbye to traditional CCTV as we know it. Not just informing you that something or someone has entered your property, we can let you know if someone is going around your car park in the wrong direction. We collect number-plates for sure, more than that though you can set up a white list that opens gates and barriers when white listed number plates come on to the property, or a black list that sets off alarms when black listed number plates arrive.
Your family's security is our top priority. We offer a range of easy to use entry and access control systems that can be customised to best protect your home. As excellent additional security for any property, especially those part of multi residential properties or long drive ways- our door entry systems off high quality video and audio bespoke solutions. The system needs to match your requirements, be completely reliable, cost effective and more importantly user-friendly for every member of your family.
According to the Home Office, 84% of burglars avoid homes with visible home security systems. Our intruder alarms deter would-be criminals and alert you and the authorities if anything should happen. Fire, Personal Attack, and many other features can be integrated into your system. Modern CCTV systems provide further reassurance that your property and possessions are safe, not only when you are away from home, but while you are at home, you can keep an eye on events, and be alerted should the cameras detect intruders or visitors to your property.
If you are reading this you are obviously considering a security system, that you hope will help protect your business. We understand that you and your staff should feel safe and secure while at work. Our Hybrid control panels use both hard wired and wireless. The wireless protocol is two-way, most inferior wireless systems are only one way. The advantage is that with one way wireless the detector talks to the control panel only, whereas with two way both panel and detector communicate. From perimeter protection to motion sensors, we have the experience to provide the correct detection for your environment.
If you need help quickly, sometimes it's just not possible to make a phone call. We have a range of panic alarms and independent living systems that are always there to alert the right people simply and quickly.
We don't just install fire and security systems, we service and maintain them too. Our extensive industry experience also means we can look after all of your servicing and maintenance needs even if there were not installed by us. It is a fact that every life safety Fire Alarm system installed requires planned preventative maintenance by law. The initial investment made in the equipment is protected, to insure that maximum reliability and prolonged performance during the life of the system and its components.
You may think that your system is fine because you do not use it that often, however, your alarm is constantly on 24/7. Even when its not armed it is monitoring every circuit to ensure that nobody tampers with it. There is a battery in the control panel and a battery in the external sounder. These are all the alarms that are either not serviced or not serviced correctly, the battery in the control panel has failed, but the one in the external sounder hasn't. You have heard the saying a stitch in time?
Making sure you have the right access control system for your building is extremely important. The system needs to match your requirements, be completely reliable, cost effective and more importantly user-friendly for those who use it and those who administer it.

These systems are generally used for smaller premises and each door is programmed individually.
