We had alarm updated following broadband upgrade and cctv cameras installed Engineer, Grant, was polite, friendly and clearly knew what he was doing. He took time to explain how the system worked.

A great company used by my dad, sister myself and a few friends since 1995. They always turn up when they say they will, will discuss the job in detail so you know what’s to expect and are very neat and tidy. More importantly when it goes wrong and you need their help they are there for you. No problem at all recommending them if you looking for an alarm or CCTV installation and ongoing maintenance. They also have all the right certifications that insurers look for, ensuring that your insurance quote will be competitive. Very highly recommended.

When we decided to fit a new alarm system we wanted to choose a local company. We would highly recommend Circle Security. Ian and Liam were professional, efficient, very tidy and took the time to explain how to use the system we had installed. Thank you Circle Security.

Replaced of an old system with a monitored dual path modern one. The work was completed on time, tidily and care was taken to avoid unnecessary need for redecoration. System alternative options were fully discussed and a proper hand over and demonstration was done on completion. We chose Circle as a result of a recommendation and I would recommend them to anyone installing or upgrading an alarm system.

When the question of installing a new security system arose, we researched a number of local and national firms. We chose Circle Security because it is a local firm with good ‘Which’ recommendation The team carried out an efficient survey and mutually arranged a suitable fitting date. Fitting was carried out carefully and sensitively bearing in mind current pandemic conditions. Ian thoroughly explained the workings of the system and left us with contact numbers, should they be needed. We would not hesitate to recommend the firm to others locally or nationally who may be seeking a reliable security company.

Thanks to Kevin and his team. Very professional and efficient. Arrived on time. Made helpful suggestions and made sure we were happy with work done.Cleaned up as they went along. Asked if we wished them to wear masks. We were happy for them not to as plenty ventilation because of nature of job.

We approached 2 local firms, both of whom came to see what we needed and what was necessary for our new home. Circle Security had been recommended by an ex-colleague of mine, who had used Circle Security for several years; the firm we had previously used had changed out of all recognition. We were very happy after our initial meeting with Kevin and a further meeting to answer some questions. The team which came to do the work were polite, efficient; wore masks when inside, and were clearly experienced and knew what they were doing. They cleaned up after their work, having sorted the rubbish into recyclable and dross, which was appreciated.

Circle Security was recommended to me by a friend who has used the firm for about 30 years. I was informed in simple language what would be the best system for my situation and the service that going forward would be offered. The installation was efficiently completed leaving no mess, and the working explained in detail. I had not completely taken the instructions on board and when I rang the number provided at Sunday lunchtime I was treated with courtesy and provided with all the information I needed. The whole experience could not have been easier or more supportive. Thank you Circle Security.
