What does AlarmMonitoring.co.uk actually do?

We are a free quote-matching service for UK alarm monitoring. You tell us what you need and roughly where you are, and we match you with monitoring companies covering your area so they can quote. We are not an installer, we are not an Alarm Receiving Centre, and we do not monitor alarms ourselves.

Being clear about this matters, because plenty of sites in this category present themselves as the provider while actually operating as introducers. We would rather tell you up front.

What we do: match you with providers covering your postcode, free of charge, and publish reference material on how UK alarm monitoring and police response actually work — free to read, with no form to fill in first.

What we do not do: install alarms, monitor alarms, hold certification from the NSI or SSAIB, issue URNs, or set prices. Any accreditation relevant to your installation is held by the company that ends up quoting, and you should verify it on the inspectorate's register yourself rather than taking our word or theirs.

We are paid by providers for the introduction, never by you, and your quote is not marked up because you came through us. That is worth knowing when you read anything here — and it is exactly why our reference pages are written to help you interrogate a quote, including one that arrives through us.
