Ultimate Home Solutions supplies and fits new house alarms and CCTV across Dumfries, with a free survey at your home, a clear quote and all workmanship guaranteed. The town is a mix of red sandstone villas and terraces near the centre and in Maxwelltown, estates of family houses at Georgetown, Heathhall and Locharbriggs, and farms and cottages out beyond the bypass. Those homes do not share the same risks, so the engineer sees yours before advising. Because the Pyronix Enforcer alarm is wireless it suits solid old walls as well as new ones, and the app lets you check on the house from anywhere.
In Dumfries the right system follows the setting. A terraced house in Maxwelltown or near the town centre is often well served by an alarm with a video doorbell, a home in Georgetown or Heathhall with a drive and a side gate may add a couple of cameras, and a farm or cottage out by Collin or New Abbey usually wants outdoor sensors and more cameras. Each part is explained here, so you arrive at the survey knowing the options.
[ Intruder alarms ]Built on the PSI award-winning Pyronix Enforcer V11, with door, window and motion sensors that are pet-friendly to avoid false triggers. Choose bells-only, or upgrade to 24/7 professional monitoring so a response is triggered even when you're away.
[ HD CCTV ]Sharp day-and-night cameras with motion recording you can view live from your phone, anywhere. Footage is stored locally or in the cloud, ready if you ever need it.
[ Video doorbells ]See and speak to whoever's at the door from your phone, whether you're upstairs or out of the country. A simple upgrade that catches deliveries and deters chancers.
[ Monitored response ]For full peace of mind, link your system to a 24/7 alarm receiving centre. If it's triggered, keyholders or a response service are alerted straight away, day or night.
I loved the experience. The finished product was far beyond my expectations and the workload was quickly carried out and completed. The workers when they arrived were polite and maintained high quality standards. Further, they ensured the mess they made was cleaned up at the end of each day. Overall, I would highly recommend this service to others as the business is very professional.

Answers on the things Dumfries people raise with us: visit charges, sandstone walls, rural broadband, pets, cameras for farms, monitoring and spreading the cost.
Ring us and a real person who knows security systems will help, with no menu to work through. We usually get back to callers within the hour, any day of the week.
Call 0800 029 3875Yes we do, and the visit is free. We install the length and breadth of Scotland, Galloway included, and home surveys carry no call-out fee and no postcode left out. That holds for the town itself and for Locharbriggs, Collin, Glencaple, New Abbey and Lochmaben. You pay nothing for the visit or the quote, and the decision to go ahead is yours alone.
The main things that set the figure are the size of the property, the number of doors and windows to cover, and any extras such as cameras, a video doorbell or 24/7 monitoring. A mid-terrace in Lochside needs less equipment than a detached farmhouse with a yard and sheds. After the free survey we send a clear quote, and you are under no obligation. Various deposit options are available.
It can. The alarm is fully wireless, so the panel, keypad, sensors and outside siren are not joined by cables and nothing has to be channelled into plaster or stone. Wireless door sensors and shock sensors protect doors and windows without a cable running to either. If you add CCTV, the cameras are cabled for power and data, and the engineer agrees tidy, hidden routes with you first.
They will still record. Footage is stored on a Network Video Recorder inside the house, and the cameras and recorder keep recording locally even when the broadband is down. What you lose for that spell is live viewing and alerts on your phone, and both return when the connection does. It is a common question from homes outside the town, and the engineer will check your set-up at the survey.
More than a town house, as a rule. Two to four cameras suit a typical semi-detached home and four to six a detached one, while larger rural properties, farms and homes with outbuildings may need anything from 8 to 16. The engineer walks the property with you and suggests positions for the yard, the sheds and the track in. Any extra cabling to reach outbuildings is included in the quote.
No. Pet-friendly movement sensors are used indoors to stop false triggers, and the wireless outdoor sensor is pet immune up to 24kg. Let the engineer know about the dogs at the survey, and the sensors will be placed and set with them in mind.
From agreeing the design, expect about 2 to 4 weeks while the equipment is ordered and a fitting date is booked. The fitting itself is quick: one working day for most alarms, and 1 to 2 days when cameras are going in as well. Everything is tested, and the app is set up on the family's phones, before the engineer leaves.
With bells-only, a trigger sounds the outside siren and sends an alert to your phone. With monitoring, the system also reports to an alarm receiving centre that is staffed day and night, and they alert your keyholders or a response service. Monitoring suits homes that stand empty for long spells or sit well away from neighbours. You hear about both at the survey, with no pressure either way.
Yes. We offer Buy Now Pay 12 Months Later, flexible credit up to 24 months, and longer-term flexible credit up to 10 years.
