Kevin provided a comprehensive recommendation, based on our needs and talked me through various options. At no point did I feel rushed into a sale - that cannot be said for other providers. They are not the cheapest but in reality what they provide is high quality, reliable and good value. Installation was done exactly as promised with no fuss or mess. Again the technicians were professional in approach and worked around our requirements. I have no hesitation in recommending Circle Security and only wish other traders were so good.

The whole process from initial meeting to completion was of a very high standard. Scott and his colleagues who supplied and fitted the system carried out the work in a logical manner with tidiness kept throughout the process. They were very polite and friendly keeping us fully informed what was being done, checking when required we were happy with planned work. Cost was per prior estimate so no surprises. System is easy to operate and after 5 days use there has been no issues arising. The team should be commended for an excellent job done. We have no hesitation in recommending this trader for security system installation.

Extremely impressed with this firm. Initial free consultation was thorough with all the available options clearly and helpfully explained with no pressure to proceed. Likewise, the installation was exemplary, the engineers were extremely well turned out, polite and very friendly and particularly clean and tidy in their work. All items of the system being installed were completed methodologically with as little dust or debris as possible, any that was created was cleaned and tidied before departure. It was as if they had never been there, such was the cleanliness with which they worked. System was explained to me in detail along with means of contacting the firm should any issues arise. In all dealings I have been left confident that I am in safe, responsible and honest hands; appointments have on each occasion been met as agreed and enquires responded to swiftly. I have no hesitation in recommending.

We had used Circle before when we inherited their system in our last house and took out a maintenance contract with them. Very professional and responsive service very year. Even attended at 4 in the morning when the system was accidentally activated. When we moved to our new house, Circle were again a no-brainer decision when we wanted to upgrade the system installed in our new flat. Grant first attended to explain the system to us (the developer left little in the way of inttruction) then came back to install our additional detectors and sound box). It is rare that I recommend a trader but Circle Security offer an exceptional and a highly professional service.

Full alarm install this time. Absolutely superb all round. On time, friendly, knowledgeable team (led by Grant on the day). The guys were very aware we'd just completed a major refurb, and so shoes were off and worked with minimal disruption. Seamless install - massive recommendation.

We have been customers of Circle Security for over 20 years. Kevin and his colleagues have always done an excellent job for us. Their customer service is excellent. Their most recent work for us involved the installation of a new burglar alarm system, incorporating several wireless sensors. This was carried out to Circle Security"s usual high standards. I would be very happy to recommend them to anyone looking to install a new system.

We have been customers for around 30 years. This was a re-fit or improvement and CCTV. Job took 3 days. Very courteous throughout and cleaned up afterwards. Only downside, left us to re-cycle old electronic equipment. Installation worked first time and I am fully satisfied. Would recommend without hesitation.

Circle Security provided a first class service from the initial visit to assess our house alarm requirements, to providing a quote very promptly and to the very efficient installation. All members of the firm were courteous and very efficient. The installation was completed with the minimum of disruption and everywhere was left clean and tidy. The demonstration of how to use the alarm was very clear and thorough. Delighted with the whole service provided.

I have known Kevin and the team of Circle Security for many years. They installed their systems to protect my last house, my mother's house, and yesterday to protect my new home. Kevin visited first, making a thorough assessment, and answering all my questions, then recommended what I should do. There was flexibility in the configuration of the system to meet my requirements, and no pressure. The installation was done on the agreed date, by the team whom I know well, and it works. I have an annual contract including 24/7 monitoring and they visit every 6 months to check that all is functioning correctly. I have no hesitation in recommending this firm.

Kevin from Circle security came out to check an older system I had, he was fantastic at explaining what needed to be upgraded and he provided a great quote for the work to be completed. There was no pressure or marketing calls which I really appreciated. New System installed on 30th July by Scott, Callum and Ian, fantastic service very professional and efficient clean and tidy. The system was explained to me and is a much easier system than the one I had previously, I am a delighted customer the service received was first class. Everything has been clearly written down and a book of the zones provided allowing me to read up on my new system.

After experiencing problems with our previous alarm supplier, we got a couple of quotes for upgrading our monitored system. Kevin from Circle Security provided a clear explanation of what they would do, essentially using the existing wiring but replacing the main panel, keypads and sensors and upgrading the communicator. They were quick to point out that the system has to be easy to use and made some small modifications accordingly. We chose Circle as their price was similar to the other quote, they are local to us and are a Which Trusted Trader. They installed the system for the agreed price in one day, cleared up well after themselves, and left us with a system that is easy to use and does just what we want. We did get a problem with a tamper fault after about a week, which they came and rectified without any questions. Their engineers were excellent, and we have no hesitation in recommending them. This is the third time we have selected a Which Trusted Trader and have been pleased with all of them.
