Cost of a community alarm
We’ll supply and fit your community alarm free of charge.
For most new installations, you don’t need a telephone line but there may be exceptions due to network coverage in some areas. You will need a standard electrical socket close to the main telephone socket so that we can install the alarm.
There is a yearly service charge of £171.08, plus VAT where applicable. This is a weekly charge of £3.50 per week, plus VAT where applicable.
