Security System Maintenance in London
Security System Maintenance for London homes and businesses
Security equipment is easy to forget until it is needed. Cameras get dirty or knocked out of position, hard drives fail without warning, batteries run down and settings drift. A system that is not checked may not record when it matters.
We provide maintenance and service visits for CCTV, intruder alarm, access control and door entry systems across London, whether we installed them or not. We check, test, tidy and report back clearly.
What this includes
- Camera, recorder and alarm health checks
- Lens cleaning and alignment
- Storage and recording checks
- Software and firmware review where applicable

FAQs
Security System Maintenance: frequently asked questions
How often should security systems be serviced?
Many systems benefit from an annual check. Higher-risk or busy sites may need more frequent visits. We recommend a schedule after reviewing your equipment.
Do you maintain systems you did not install?
Yes, in most cases. We check what you have and tell you what is possible.
What happens at a CCTV service visit?
We check camera views, clean housings, test night vision, check the recorder and hard drive, confirm recordings and review settings and passwords.
Can maintenance prevent system failures?
It reduces the risk. Many failures, such as a faulty hard drive or a camera out of position, can be spotted early during a check.
Do I need a contract?
Not necessarily. We can do one-off visits or agree a regular schedule, depending on what suits you.
Will you tell me if equipment needs replacing?
Yes. We report clearly on what is working, what is failing and what we recommend.
