How to Choose a Good Security Installer in Chichester
- 1
Check the installer is NSI Gold or SSAIB approved — these are the recognised quality standards for alarm installers.
- 2
Ask whether the system will be monitored (ARC monitoring) or self-monitored via app — each has different implications for insurance.
- 3
Confirm the system complies with your home insurer's requirements — many require a Grade 2 or 3 alarm for full cover.
- 4
Ask about ongoing maintenance contracts; CCTV and alarm systems need regular servicing to remain effective.
- 5
For CCTV, check the resolution and night vision quality — cheap cameras often provide unusable footage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a home alarm system reduce my insurance premium?
In most cases, yes. Many home insurers offer a discount (typically 5–10%) for an approved alarm installation. Some policies require a Grade 2 alarm installed by an NSI or SSAIB-approved company — check your policy requirements before installation.
Do I need planning permission for CCTV or an alarm?
External alarm boxes and CCTV cameras are generally permitted development and do not require planning permission for a single household. If you live in a listed building or conservation area, or if the installation affects the character of the building, you may need consent.
What is the difference between a monitored and an unmonitored alarm?
A monitored alarm connects to an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) which can alert the police, a key holder, or a response company if the alarm is triggered. An unmonitored alarm sounds locally only. Monitored alarms are more effective as a deterrent and are preferred by insurers.
How long does CCTV footage need to be retained?
For domestic use, there is no set legal minimum, but 28–31 days of rolling storage is generally recommended to allow time to review footage after an incident. Your installer can advise on the storage capacity required for your number of cameras and recording resolution.
