24/7 SECURITY MONITORINGCCTV & alarm monitoring that does more than send an app alert.
We can monitor your intruder alarm, your CCTV, or both together. Depending on the system and service level, alerts can be checked by a monitoring centre, escalated to keyholders and, where the required signalling and response criteria are met, passed for police response.
01Alarm monitoring
Your alarm can be connected to a professional monitoring service so activations are not relying on you noticing a phone notification. The monitoring centre can follow the agreed response plan, contact keyholders and escalate verified activations.
- 24/7 monitored alarm signalling
- Keyholder notification and escalation
- Dual-path communication options where suitable
- Police-response options on qualifying systems
- Suitable for homes and commercial sites
02CCTV monitoring
For selected CCTV systems, events can be monitored remotely so suspicious activity is reviewed rather than simply recorded. This can be particularly useful for yards, compounds, offices, warehouses, farms and other sites that are empty overnight.
- Remote event verification
- Person and vehicle detection on compatible systems
- Escalation to agreed contacts
- Audio warning options where supported
- Designed around the site and risk level
03Police response
Police response is not just a button we switch on. The alarm, signalling, monitoring arrangement and verification process need to meet the relevant requirements. We can assess the existing system, explain what is needed and upgrade it where necessary.
- System suitability check
- Monitoring-centre connection
- Verified alarm response setup
- Maintenance requirements explained clearly
- Ongoing support from Secure CCTV
04Already have a system?
You do not necessarily need a complete replacement. We can inspect an existing CCTV or alarm system, confirm what can be reused, resolve access or signalling issues and advise whether monitoring can be added to what you already have.
- Existing-system takeover
- App and user access checks
- Recorder and communications checks
- Monitoring compatibility review
- Clear upgrade recommendations only where needed
SIMPLE MONTHLY SECURITYOne company for installation, maintenance and monitoring.
We install the system, keep it maintained and can arrange monitoring around the way you actually use the property. That means fewer handoffs when there is a fault, a change of keyholder or an upgrade later on.
Alarm monitoringFrom around £11 + VAT per month for suitable systems, depending on the required service and signalling.
CCTV monitoringPriced to the number of cameras, operating hours and response required. We build this around the actual site rather than forcing a fixed package.
MaintenanceAnnual maintenance is available so monitored systems are regularly checked and faults are found before they become a bigger problem.
WHY ADD MONITORINGAn app notification is useful. A proper response plan is better.
Monitoring is for the moments when you are asleep, driving, abroad or simply do not notice the alert. The aim is to make sure a genuine activation has a clear next step rather than becoming another notification buried on your phone.
Less reliance on your phoneProfessional monitoring can follow an agreed escalation path instead of waiting for you to notice something.
Better verificationOn suitable systems, alarm and CCTV information can help distinguish a real event from a nuisance activation.
One company to callInstallation, maintenance and monitoring can sit with the same team instead of being split between suppliers.
Already have CCTV or an alarm?We can check whether the existing system is suitable for monitoring before recommending replacement equipment.

We will tell you whether the existing equipment can be monitored, what needs changing and the sensible route forward.
WHY SECURE CCTVOne local team from the first survey to long-term support.
We design around the property, explain the options clearly and stay available after the installation. If you already have equipment worth keeping, we will tell you that too rather than replacing it for the sake of it.

Local engineers, real supportYou are dealing with the same team that surveys, installs, commissions and supports security systems across Essex, Suffolk and London.
