At a glance

What to know about security for care homes and day centres

A care home is never empty, so security is not about setting an alarm on the way out. What matters here is entrances, fire detection and knowing who comes and goes, without intruding on the privacy of the people who live there.

01

Open entrances by day

With visitors and suppliers coming in, every door should be under control.

02

Fire

In a building with people of reduced mobility, every minute of warning counts.

03

Areas unused at night

Offices, stores and kitchens can be protected by zone while residents occupy the rest of the building.

Key points for your alarm

  • Main entrance and reception
  • Service and outside doors
  • Offices and store

Questions

Frequently asked questions about security for care homes and day centres

Can just part of the building be protected?

Yes. The system is divided into zones, so offices or stores can be armed while the rest stays in use.

Does it include fire detection?

We can add smoke and heat detectors to the same system. Whatever your centre is legally required to have is reviewed separately.

Do I have to close during installation?

No. Installation is wireless with no building work, and we arrange it to disturb you as little as possible.

Can each employee have their own code?

Yes. Each person has their own access and the app records who opens and closes.

Can I set the alarm remotely if someone forgets?

Yes. You can arm it from the app wherever you are.

Does the alarm notify the police?

Yes. The alarm is connected to a receiving centre that operates 24 hours a day and notifies the police in the event of an intrusion.

What does the alarm receiving centre do?

It receives the signal from your alarm at any hour and handles the alert. In the event of an intrusion it notifies the police, and you also get a notification on your phone.

Can I combine an alarm and cameras?

Yes. They can be combined and managed together from the mobile app, so you see what is happening while the centre handles the alert.

Security risks in care homes

Open entrances by day

With visitors and suppliers coming in, every door should be under control.

Fire

In a building with people of reduced mobility, every minute of warning counts.

Areas unused at night

Offices, stores and kitchens can be protected by zone while residents occupy the rest of the building.

What your alarm should protect in care homes

  • Main entrance and reception
  • Service and outside doors
  • Offices and store
  • Smoke and heat detectors
  • Gardens and perimeter

In a centre like this, bedrooms and bathrooms stay outside any camera’s view. Video surveillance is limited to entrances and common areas, with information signs, and the system is split into zones so only unused areas are armed. Fire requirements depend on the centre and its regulations.

How we install the alarm in care homes

We start with a free technical visit with no obligation: one of our own technicians assesses the site, explains what you need and gives you a fixed quote before you sign. Installation involves no building work.
