Alarms, shock sensing and immobilisation, fitted to your vehicle and wired in properly. A security package is a separate system from a remote starter — you can have either on its own, or both fitted in the same visit.
Security packages are priced for your car and the features you choose.
Wired to your car’s own systems, not a one-size loom.
Components mounted out of sight and cable run behind trim.
If something we installed develops a fault, bring it back.
A security system watches the vehicle while you are not in it, and makes noise and attracts attention when something happens that should not be happening.
Depending on the equipment fitted, that can mean sounding an alarm when the vehicle is disturbed, letting you know from the remote, and adding a layer of start protection on top of what the vehicle already has. What the system can do is set by the equipment you choose and by what your particular vehicle supports.
What a security system will not do is make a vehicle theft-proof. Nothing does. What a well-chosen, properly installed system does is make the vehicle a slower, louder and more awkward target than the one parked next to it — and that is the honest version of what you are buying.
Which of these apply depends on the vehicle and the system selected. We will tell you what your car supports before anything is ordered.
A security system fitted on its own, without a remote starter. Plenty of people want one and not the other.
Where the system supports it, a sensor lets the alarm respond to impact or disturbance to the vehicle.
Selected packages add start protection on top of the vehicle’s own arrangements. Availability depends on the vehicle and system.
On systems that offer it, a two-way remote confirms back to you that the vehicle actually locked or armed, instead of leaving you guessing across a car park.
Security equipment has to work with the car it is going into. On a modern vehicle that is a conversation between the system and the vehicle’s own electronics, not a matter of splicing into whatever is nearest.
Security packages are quoted per vehicle. No guesswork over the phone about a car we have not identified.
Where the equipment supports it, a shock sensor lets the system respond when the vehicle is struck or disturbed. Sensitivity is part of the setup: too low and it misses things, too high and it goes off in a car park every time a truck rolls past. We set it for your vehicle and adjust it if it turns out to be wrong for how and where you park.
What we will not tell you is that it catches everything. Impact detection responds to impact — it is one layer of a system, not a guarantee that every kind of interference with your vehicle will set the alarm off.
Some security packages include additional start protection, so that the vehicle will not simply drive away for someone who has got inside it. Whether it is available, and how it behaves, depends on the vehicle, the system chosen and how the installation is configured.
This is one of the areas where the vehicle matters most, so it is a question we answer for your specific car rather than in general terms. Ask us when you book and we will tell you what is possible on yours.
These are two separate systems and each stands on its own. A remote starter does not automatically include an alarm, and a security package does not automatically start your car. Plenty of customers want one without the other, and that is a perfectly normal way to buy.
Where a customer wants both, and the vehicle and equipment allow it, having them fitted at the same visit means the dash is opened up once instead of twice. If you already have a starter and want to add security later, that is fine too — tell us what is fitted and we will work from there.
Most vehicles arrive from the factory with security arrangements of their own, and on many cars those work perfectly well for what the owner needs. We are not going to tell you that what came with your car is useless.
What an aftermarket system can add is extra functionality on top — the kind of alarm behaviour, sensing and remote confirmation the factory did not fit, chosen by you rather than by the manufacturer. Whether that is worth doing depends on your vehicle, where it is parked and what you actually want out of it. If your car already does what you need, we will say so.
A fair amount of what comes through the door is not a new install. It is an alarm going off for no obvious reason, a remote that has stopped talking to the car, or aftermarket wiring left behind by an earlier installation that is now causing a fault somewhere else entirely.
That work sits with our auto electrical side: we measure and trace before anything is replaced, and we will tell you what we find. We do not publish how any of this is defeated or worked around, for reasons that should be obvious on a page about vehicle security.
Year, make and model, how the vehicle starts and locks, what is already fitted, and what you want the system to do.
What your vehicle supports, which features are worth it, and the price for that car before anything is ordered.
Fitted indoors, wired to the vehicle, components mounted out of sight and cable run behind trim.
Configured for your vehicle, tested with you in the bay, and we show you how to arm, disarm and live with it.
This is the part of the job you never see, and it is the part that decides whether the system is still working properly in three winters’ time.
Security packages are quoted per vehicle. The price depends on the car, the system and features you choose, whether an interface module is needed, what security the vehicle already has, and whether it is being combined with a remote starter. Tell us the year, make and model and we will price it properly rather than guess.
No. A security package is a separate system and can be fitted on its own. Equally, a remote starter does not automatically include an alarm. Plenty of customers want one without the other.
Where the vehicle and equipment allow it, yes — and it is worth doing in one visit, because the dash is opened up once instead of twice.
No system makes a vehicle theft-proof, and we will not tell you otherwise. What a properly installed system does is detect disturbance, make noise, draw attention and — on packages that include it — add start protection, which together make the vehicle a slower and more awkward target.
It depends on your vehicle and what you want. Many factory arrangements do the job for the owner perfectly well. An aftermarket system can add functionality the factory did not fit. If your car already does what you need, we will say so.
Usually, though push-to-start and keyed vehicles are built differently and many cars need a compatible interface module. What your specific vehicle supports is something we confirm before anything is ordered.
A correctly installed system draws very little when the vehicle is parked. If you are seeing a battery go flat overnight, that is worth investigating on its own — it is a common auto electrical fault and not always caused by the last thing fitted.
Yes. Alarms triggering unexpectedly, remotes that have stopped responding and wiring left behind by a previous installation are all things we diagnose. We measure and trace before replacing anything.
Our installation workmanship carries a lifetime warranty — if something we installed develops a fault, bring it back and we will fix it, for as long as you own the vehicle. The equipment itself carries its own manufacturer warranty, whose length and terms vary by product.
