Ultimate Home Solutions supplies and fits new house alarms and CCTV across Edinburgh, and every job begins with a free security survey in your own home. A shared-stair flat in Bruntsfield, a Georgian main door in the New Town and a bungalow in Blackhall are protected in quite different ways, so the engineer looks at your doors, your windows and the way in before suggesting any kit. The alarm we fit is the wireless Pyronix Enforcer, which means no cable runs across old cornices or panelling, and the whole system answers to an app on your phone.
Edinburgh homes vary more than most. A second-floor flat in Leith may need little beyond an alarm on its own front door and a video doorbell, whereas a detached house in Colinton or Cramond with a garage and a long garden is usually better served by cameras and an outdoor sensor too. Each part is explained below, ready for you to talk over with the engineer.
[ 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.
Absolutely brilliant experience from start to finish. The qualities of the product were explained and demonstrated and we went ahead. We were delighted with the end product and the lads who done the job were friendly professional and approachable. We would have no hesitation in recommending this company to anyone and will do so if asked.
Did what they said they would do and on time.
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.

What Edinburgh homeowners want to know before they order, from tenement flats and listed buildings to pets, cameras, broadband and paying monthly.
Call and you speak to someone who understands alarms, not an automated menu. Most calls get an answer inside the hour, all seven days.
Call 0800 029 3875Yes to both. An engineer comes to your home anywhere in the city, from Leith and Portobello to Corstorphine, Colinton and Balerno, with no travel charge and no call-out fee. The clear quote that follows is free as well, and you are under no obligation to order.
Three things: the size of the home, the number of doors and windows that need a sensor, and whether you add cameras, a video doorbell or 24/7 monitoring. A one-bedroom flat in Gorgie takes much less equipment than a villa in the Grange with outbuildings. You get a clear, no-obligation quote after the survey. Various deposit options are available.
It is the neatest answer for a flat. The Pyronix Enforcer is fully wireless, so nobody has to lift floorboards or run cable round cornices in a Marchmont or Leith tenement. Your own front door and windows get sensors, the panel lives inside the flat, and the app does the rest. A camera on the common stair is a matter for all the owners, so speak to your neighbours or factor before asking us for one.
Often, but check first. Much of the New Town and Old Town is listed or sits in a conservation area, and the City of Edinburgh Council may need to agree to anything fixed to the outside of the building. The wireless alarm indoors is rarely an issue. Tell the engineer at the survey and we will suggest positions that are as discreet as the building allows.
They should not. The movement sensors in the package have pet immunity to keep false alarms down, and the outdoor sensor ignores animals up to 24kg. Mention your dog or cat at the survey and the engineer will position the sensors to suit.
Most home systems are fitted within 1 to 2 working days. Allow roughly 2 to 4 weeks between agreeing the design and the fitting day, which covers ordering the equipment and booking the date. Before the engineer leaves, everything is tested and the app is running on your phones.
You choose. As standard the siren sounds and the app alerts you wherever you are. If the flat or house is empty for long spells, the system can be linked to a 24/7 alarm receiving centre, which alerts your keyholders or a response service when it triggers. Both routes are set out in your quote.
Footage records to a recorder inside your home, typically around 30 days on a rolling basis, and cloud backup is optional. You need broadband to watch live or get alerts on your phone, but the cameras keep recording locally if the connection drops. In Edinburgh's tightly packed streets we angle cameras away from neighbouring windows and gardens and explain the privacy rules.
Yes. We offer Buy Now Pay 12 Months Later, flexible credit up to 24 months, and longer-term flexible credit up to 10 years. The initial eligibility check is a soft search with no impact on your credit score, and gives an instant decision. Ultimate Home Solutions is authorised by the FCA as a credit broker (not a lender).
Yes. We install video doorbells and smart locks, and a smart lock can issue time-limited codes, useful for a cleaner or for guests staying while you are away during the Festival. Everything is designed to be added to, so a doorbell, another camera or a gate intercom can join the system later.
