Why do I need a Service Contract?
Peace of Mind
You depend on your security system to provide safe and secure premises for your family/ visitors or staff, so it makes sense that your system is kept in optimum condition, with 24 hour emergency cover that you can always count on if and when needed.
Save Money
Regular servicing will also ensure the maximum component life and result in lower system downtime. You will also save money by avoiding non-contracted hourly rates.
Compliance
Current industry standards including EN Standards, the NSI (NACOSS), the Police, the Data Protection Act and Health and Safety Act all require that security systems that fall within their remit are covered under a formal maintenance agreement.
Stay Covered
Your insurance company will usually require you to regularly maintain your security system. If you have not arranged appropriate cover your insurance claims may be invalid. In addition, all security systems that have Police response or are financed under a Lease Agreement must have a current service and maintenance contract.
