Alarm installation in Cork, room by room
We design the alarm around the house and the way you live in it. Door contacts on the doors you use, detectors in the rooms that matter, shock sensors on vulnerable windows, and keypads where you come and go. Pet tolerant detectors keep a dog from setting it off.
Most of our alarms are Texecom Premier Elite panels, wired in new builds and renovations and wireless in finished homes, so there is very little disruption. Everything is set, unset and checked from the app, and you get an alert the moment anything happens.

Alarms for Cork homes
In the city and the older suburbs, wireless alarms protect period plasterwork in Ballintemple, Montenotte and Cobh. New builds in Carrigaline, Carrigtwohill and Ballincollig get wired systems fitted at first fix. Rural homes around Mallow, Mitchelstown and Bandon often add monitoring and extend the alarm to sheds and yards, because neighbours are further away.
Intruder alarm installation in Ireland is regulated by the Private Security Authority. 1Install, which trades as Cork Security, holds a PSA licence.

Questions
Questions we are often asked
How much does alarm installation cost in Cork?
A typical home alarm with keypad, detectors and door contacts is from €700 including VAT. Larger homes and extra sensors add to that, and the survey gives you a fixed price.
Wired or wireless?
Wired suits new builds and renovations, where cable can go in before plastering. Wireless suits finished homes and avoids lifting floors or chasing walls.
Will my dog set the alarm off?
Not if the alarm is designed for it. We use pet tolerant detectors and position them so a dog moving around does not trigger the system.
Do I need monitoring?
Not always. App alerts suit many homes. Monitoring, from about €30 a month, means a monitoring centre responds even if you cannot answer your phone.
Can you upgrade my old alarm?
Sometimes. We check the panel and detectors at the survey and tell you what can be kept and what is worth replacing.
