What an Ajax system is and why it needs no building work
Ajax is a wireless alarm system built around a hub (the control unit) and detectors that communicate by radio: motion sensors, door and window contacts, flood and smoke detectors. Every detector runs on batteries that last for years, so there is no cabling and no chasing walls. Everything is set up and managed from a mobile app: arm, disarm and get instant alerts.
What the installation looks like, step by step
First we visit to spot the weak points: entrances, low windows, terraces, shutters worth protecting. From that assessment you get a fixed quote before any work begins. On installation day we fit the hub and detectors, set up the app with your users and test everything with you. In most flats and premises the job is done within a few hours, with no dust and no building work.
Who an Ajax system suits
It suits flats, detached houses and commercial premises. It is modular: you can start with the basics (hub, one motion detector and contacts on the entrance) and add more sensors, keypads or sirens later. And if you move, the system is yours: the detectors come down leaving barely a mark and reinstall in the new property.
When to call
Book a visit today if someone has tried to force your door, your premises stand empty at night, you are moving into a new flat, or you want to replace an old subscription alarm with a system you own.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to install an Ajax alarm?
It depends on the number and type of detectors your home or premises need. That is why we visit first, assess the weak points and give you a fixed quote before starting, with no surprises.
Is any building work or cabling needed?
No. The detectors are wireless and run on long-life batteries. They are fitted without chasing walls or running cables, and installation takes a few hours.
Does it work if I have pets?
Yes. There are motion detectors with pet immunity that tell a dog or cat from a person. We take this into account during the visit and set the right sensitivity.
What happens if I move?
The system is yours. The detectors come down leaving barely a mark and can be reinstalled in the new property. If you change flats or premises, talk to us and we will move it.
