ADS Group designs, installs, maintains and monitors commercial intruder alarm systems across Dublin. Systems are specified to the grade the risk and the insurer require, normally Grade 2 or Grade 3 for commercial premises, and monitored 24/7 through an Alarm Receiving Centre so an activation reaches a person rather than only a siren on a wall.
Commercial policies frequently specify a system grade and monitored response as a condition of cover. Fitting a lower grade than the policy requires can leave you with a working alarm and a disputed claim. We check what the policy requires before specifying, and the certification states the grade the system was installed and maintained to.
A building where cleaners, a gym tenant and an office all have different access hours cannot run on one setting. Proper zoning lets part of a building be set while another part is in use, which is the difference between an alarm people arm every night and an alarm people stop arming because it is inconvenient.
An unmonitored siren depends on a passer-by caring. Monitoring through an Alarm Receiving Centre means an activation is verified and escalated to keyholders or the Garda response as the protocol sets out, at three in the morning as reliably as at three in the afternoon.
Full detail on the system types, the standards and the certification process is on the Intruder Alarms page, and everything else we cover in the county is on the Dublin page.
An engineer assesses the site, reviews the existing system and its documentation, and returns a written scope of works.
