[2026 Pricing Guide] How to Choose the Right Abloy Locking Solution for Your Commercial Property How to Choose the Right Access Control System for Your Business in Northern Ireland --- ## CCTV blurring and CCTV Redaction service – Advanced Overwatch URL: https://advancedoverwatch.com/cctv-video-redaction/cctv-blurring-cctv-redaction-service/ Coleraine: 02870 878077 Derry/LDerry: 02871 878123 Belfast: 02890 993566 Magherafelt: 02879 668330 Omagh: 02882 888166 CCTV redaction is a process used to protect the privacy and identity of individuals captured on video surveillance. It involves the removal or blurring of sensitive information such as faces, license plates, and other personally identifiable details. What is the purpose of CCTV Redaction? CCTV Redaction techniques are commonly employed in situations where the footage is intended for public release or legal proceedings or when a person makes a subject access request. To fulfill the legal obligations of a subject access request (SAR), you need to protect the personal information, identify and other distinguishing features of anyone else who is visable in CCTV footage other than the person making the subject access request. By complying with the Data Protection Act 2018 and UK GDPR, implementing CCTV redaction, organisations can ensure compliance with these privacy regulations while still maintaining the integrity of their video evidence. SAR, DSAR… what’s the difference? A SAR, also called a data subject access request (DSAR), is any request by a data subject for access to their personal data. Both terms are often used interchangeably. The CCTV redaction process plays a crucial role in balancing the need for security and privacy in today’s surveillance-driven world. We provide CCTV redaction service for Subject Access Requests (SAR) The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) grants individuals the right to request access to their personal data held by organisations. This includes data captured by Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) systems. The process to exercise this right is by submitting a Subject Access Request (SAR) to the organisation responsible for the CCTV footage. The SAR should be made in writing and include specific details such as the date, time, and location of the incident you are requesting footage for. The organisation has one calendar month, starting from the day they receive the request to provide a copy of the footage, unless there are legitimate reasons for a delay. It is important to note that the organisation may redact or withhold certain information if it falls under any exemptions outlined in the GDPR. If the request for CCTV footage is complex or you make more than one, the response time may be a maximum of three calendar months, starting from the day of receipt. Outsourcing your CCTV Redaction to Advanced Overwatch Outsourcing CCTV redaction to Advanced Overwatch has become a popular choice for many businesses and organisations. By entrusting this task to external professionals, companies can ensure that sensitive information captured on surveillance footage is properly protected. Outsourcing CCTV redaction to us offers several advantages, including increased efficiency, cost savings, and enhanced data security. With the growing importance of privacy and data protection, businesses are recognising the value of outsourcing this critical task. By partnering with our experienced redaction team, companies can focus on their core operations while ensuring compliance with privacy regulations. Overall, outsourcing CCTV redaction to Advanced Overwatch is a smart and strategic move for many businesses looking to safeguard sensitive information effectively. What CCTV Redaction Services do Advanced Overwatch offer? We offer a fully outsourced CCTV Redaction service. Importantly, the Redaction process is carried out by experienced, real people, at our secure CCTV Control Rooms in the UK. Our solution is not A.I. driven or software reliant like some of the alternatives you will have seen online. More often than not automatic CCTV Redaction is poor, particularly when dealing with important and complex footage (more than one individual). If a single frame of footage contains the personal information of another individual then it is not compliant. In short, Advanced Overwatch professionally redact your CCTV video for you. Here’s how our simple CCTV Redaction process works: We assist our clients with the paperwork process (including CCTV Data Processing Agreement). You upload the file to our secure, GDPR compliant portal. We blur the areas that you need, for example faces, license plates, personally identifiable markings, body tattoos and house numbers etc. Audio, if used, can also be redacted or removed entirely. You then get access to preview the footage. Our clients can use our portal, which is branded to your business or organisation, to share the footage with your data subject which is password protected and removed automatically after a period of time you select. Who is our CCTV Redaction Service suitable for? We provide our service to businesses and organisations of all sizes, such as small shops and schools, solicitors, to blue chip companies, to public authorities and police services across the UK. For example, we carry out CCTV Redaction for our customers including: NHS McDonald’s Police Service of Northern Ireland Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council Community Rescue Service Mid Ulster District Council Town and City Centre locations including Coleraine, Portrush, Portstewart Woodard Academies Trust Further information regarding our ICO / UK GDPR / DPA 2018 Compliant CCTV Redaction Services is below: CCTV Redaction Vetting and certification All staff are Enhanced Vetting cleared to BS:7858:2019. We offer a highly personalised, confidential and professional service with a fast turnaround. We hold ISO 9001 / 27001, for quality and data security. We also have quite a number of specific industry certifications (CIPP/E, CIPM, IPSA, CTSP, MSyL, SSAIB and so on). All operators working on Redaction are fully vetted and trained in data protection and the secure handling of evidential footage. CCTV Video and Audio Redaction process Redaction is performed on non-network, siloed computers, we do not carry out any cloud processing. The redaction is performed in one of our two Control Rooms – both locations are staffed 24 hours per day. The output we provide is suitable for submission to Data Subjects making a SAR, Solicitor firms, Police or court proceedings and we work with public and private sector customers across the UK. Our services are used daily by Police, local authorities and private sector customers. CCTV Redaction Processing All processing is done by our team, in-house with no third-party processing. We do not use automated A.I. processing which has a high failure rate. We make the process for our clients very straightforward. Footage is delivered via a secure and encrypted download link (UK hosted) and is often used by our clients to provide footage to Data Subjects as a downloadable and auditable record of delivery with password and expiry enabled – we can host this for you to complete your SAR. How much does CCTV Redaction cost? Every CCTV video clip is different. Complexity, duration, number of individuals to be redacted and so on. We review your requirements with you which is 100% free of charge and provide a quotation.

Electrical Contracting Northern Ireland Electrical Contracting — Installation, Testing & Maintenance Advanced Overwatch provides a full range of electrical contracting services for domestic, commercial and industrial clients across Northern Ireland. All work is carried out by City & Guilds 18th Edition qualified electricians and inspected by City & Guilds 2391 certified personnel, ensuring every installation meets the latest BS 7671 wiring regulations. From routine testing and inspection through to complete electrical design and fit-out of commercial premises, we deliver reliable, compliant solutions backed by 24/7 emergency call-out support. PAT Testing (Portable Appliance Testing) Employers have a legal duty under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 to ensure that electrical equipment used by employees is safe. PAT testing is the recognised method of demonstrating compliance: What is tested — All portable and transportable electrical appliances, including computers, kettles, power tools, extension leads and phone chargers. Testing frequency — Depends on the environment and equipment type. Offices typically require annual testing; construction sites and industrial settings require more frequent checks (3–6 months). Certification — Each item tested receives a pass/fail label and a unique reference number. We provide a full register of all tested equipment along with formal certificates for your records and insurance purposes. Failed items — Any equipment that fails testing is immediately labelled as unsafe and removed from service, with a written report detailing the fault. Fixed Wire Testing (EICR) An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is an inspection and test of the fixed electrical wiring in a building. It is a legal requirement in many circumstances: Frequency — Commercial premises should be inspected at least every 5 years. Some sectors (e.g. swimming pools, petrol stations, construction sites) require more frequent testing. Landlord obligations — Landlords in Northern Ireland have a duty to ensure electrical installations are safe for tenants. An up-to-date EICR provides evidence of compliance. What is inspected — Consumer units, distribution boards, wiring, earthing, bonding, circuit protection devices and socket outlets. The inspection identifies any deterioration, damage, defects or non-compliance with current regulations. Classification codes — Any defects found are categorised using codes C1 (danger present), C2 (potentially dangerous) and C3 (improvement recommended). We provide clear guidance on remedial action required. Generator Installation & Maintenance An uninterrupted power supply is critical for many businesses. Advanced Overwatch designs, installs and maintains standby generator systems to ensure your operations continue during mains power failure: Standby generators — Diesel and gas-powered generators with automatic transfer switches (ATS) that activate within seconds of a mains failure. UPS systems — Uninterruptible Power Supply units that provide instant battery backup for critical IT infrastructure, CCTV systems and access control, bridging the gap until the generator starts. Planned maintenance — Regular servicing, load-bank testing and fuel management to ensure your generator starts reliably when needed. EV Charging Point Installation As electric vehicles become increasingly common, businesses and homeowners need reliable charging infrastructure. Advanced Overwatch installs EV charging points for commercial car parks, fleet depots, hotels, retail premises and residential properties. We handle the full process from electrical survey and load assessment through to installation, commissioning and OZEV grant applications where applicable.

Emergency Lighting Installation Northern Ireland Emergency Lighting — Design, Installation & Maintenance Advanced Overwatch designs, installs and maintains emergency lighting systems that comply fully with BS 5266-1 and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Our qualified engineers ensure your premises provide safe illuminated escape routes in the event of a mains power failure, protecting your staff, customers and legal compliance. Legal Requirements Emergency lighting is a legal requirement in virtually all non-domestic premises across the UK and Northern Ireland. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and the Fire Safety (Northern Ireland) Order 2010, the responsible person must ensure that emergency escape lighting is provided where needed. Failure to comply can result in enforcement notices, prohibition orders and criminal prosecution. Insurance policies may also be invalidated if emergency lighting is inadequate or untested. The relevant British Standard is BS 5266-1:2016 , which sets out the code of practice for the emergency lighting of premises. Advanced Overwatch designs and installs all systems to this standard. Types of Emergency Lighting We install all categories of emergency lighting to suit the size, use and risk profile of your building: Maintained Emergency Luminaires — The lamp is illuminated at all times, whether or not the mains supply is present. Commonly used in places of entertainment, cinemas, theatres and licensed premises where lighting may be dimmed. Non-Maintained Emergency Luminaires — The lamp only illuminates when the mains supply fails. The most common type found in offices, factories, warehouses and retail premises. Sustained Emergency Luminaires — Contain two or more lamps, at least one of which is energised from the emergency supply. Provides both normal and emergency lighting from a single fitting. Self-Contained Systems — Each luminaire contains its own battery, charger and control circuitry. Ideal for smaller buildings or where running central cabling is impractical. Central Battery Systems — A single battery unit powers multiple luminaires throughout the building. Preferred for larger buildings, hospitals, shopping centres and multi-storey premises where centralised monitoring and maintenance is advantageous. Where Emergency Lighting Is Required BS 5266-1 specifies that emergency lighting must be provided at the following locations as a minimum: Each escape route and exit door Intersections of corridors and any change of direction along an escape route Stairways, so that each flight receives direct light Changes in floor level Windowless rooms and toilet facilities exceeding 8m² Fire alarm call points and fire-fighting equipment locations Final exit doors and immediately outside each final exit Lifts (to illuminate the car and landing areas) High-risk task areas where sudden loss of light creates danger Design & Installation Our design process follows BS 5266-1 and incorporates a thorough risk assessment of your premises. We carry out lux-level calculations to ensure minimum illumination of 1 lux along escape route centre lines and 0.5 lux across the full width. Emergency exit signage is designed to EN ISO 7010 standards and positioned for maximum visibility. All installations are completed by City & Guilds 18th Edition qualified electricians and inspected by City & Guilds 2391 qualified personnel. Testing Requirements Regular testing is essential to ensure your emergency lighting will operate when needed. BS 5266-1 requires: Monthly functional tests — A brief test to confirm each luminaire illuminates correctly when the mains supply is interrupted. Results must be recorded in a log book. Annual full-duration tests — Each luminaire is tested for its full rated duration (typically 3 hours) to confirm the battery provides adequate backup power. Failed units must be replaced promptly. Daily visual checks — Where central battery systems include indicator panels, a daily check should confirm the system is in normal operating condition. Advanced Overwatch offers planned maintenance contracts that cover all required testing and provide full documentation for your fire safety log book and insurance records. Maintenance Contracts Our emergency lighting maintenance contracts ensure ongoing compliance with minimal effort on your part. Each contract includes scheduled monthly and annual testing visits, lamp and battery replacement, written test certificates, and 24/7 emergency call-out support. We maintain a complete service history for your premises, providing auditable records should they be required by the Fire and Rescue Service or your insurer. Integration with Fire Alarm Systems Emergency lighting can be integrated with your fire alarm system to provide coordinated activation during an emergency. We design systems that illuminate escape routes automatically when the fire alarm is triggered, providing clear evacuation guidance even before a mains failure occurs. Industries We Serve We design and maintain emergency lighting for clients across all sectors, including offices, retail, hospitality and licensed premises, healthcare, education, manufacturing, warehousing and logistics, residential care homes, places of worship and public buildings. Coverage Areas Advanced Overwatch provides emergency lighting services across Northern Ireland, including Londonderry, Belfast, Tyrone, Antrim, Fermanagh, Armagh and Down, as well as the Republic of Ireland and UK mainland for larger projects.

Free site survey available. SSAIB-Certified Intruder Alarm Installation Advanced Overwatch is one of Northern Ireland’s leading SSAIB-certified security companies, specialising in the design, installation and maintenance of burglar alarm systems for residential and commercial properties. Covering Dungiven, Belfast, Newry, Enniskillen and Strabane and the wider region, our team of qualified engineers provides expert intruder alarm installation across every county in Northern Ireland. Whether you are protecting a family home, a retail unit, a large commercial premises or a multi-site operation, we deliver bespoke burglar alarm solutions that are tailored to your specific security requirements. Every system we install meets the highest industry standards and is fully compliant with insurance and police response requirements. Our SSAIB certification demonstrates that our work is independently audited to the highest standards. This means you can trust that your alarm system has been designed, installed and commissioned by qualified professionals who are regularly assessed for quality and competence. Types of Burglar Alarm Systems Choosing the right type of intruder alarm depends on the size of your property, the level of risk, your budget and whether you need remote monitoring or police response. Advanced Overwatch installs a comprehensive range of burglar alarm technologies: Wired Alarm Systems Wired intruder alarms remain the gold standard for reliability. Each detector is physically connected to the control panel via cabling, which eliminates any risk of wireless interference or signal loss. Wired systems are ideal for new-build properties, major renovations and commercial installations where long-term reliability is paramount. They are generally preferred by insurers and monitoring stations due to their superior dependability. Wireless Alarm Systems Wireless burglar alarms use radio frequency communication between detectors and the control panel. Modern wireless systems are highly secure, using encrypted signals that are resistant to jamming and interference. They are perfect for retrofit installations, listed buildings and properties where running cables would be impractical or undesirable. Installation is faster and less disruptive than wired alternatives. Hybrid Alarm Systems Hybrid systems combine the best of both worlds, using wired connections where cabling is accessible and wireless detectors in areas that are difficult to reach. This approach maximises flexibility whilst maintaining the reliability of a hardwired backbone. Hybrid systems are increasingly popular for commercial premises undergoing phased security upgrades. Smart & App-Connected Alarm Systems Modern burglar alarms can be connected to smartphone applications, allowing you to arm, disarm and monitor your system from anywhere in the world. Smart alarm systems send instant push notifications when an alarm is triggered and allow you to check the status of your property at any time. Integration with smart home devices such as cameras, doorbells and lighting creates a comprehensive connected security ecosystem. Commercial-Grade Intruder Alarm Systems For larger commercial properties, we install enterprise-grade alarm systems with multiple partitions, zoning capabilities and integration with access control and CCTV. These systems can protect complex sites with multiple buildings, different access levels and hundreds of detection zones. Commercial-grade panels from leading manufacturers provide the scalability and reliability that businesses demand. Monitored vs Unmonitored Burglar Alarms One of the most important decisions when choosing a burglar alarm is whether to opt for a monitored or unmonitored system. Unmonitored (Bells-Only) Alarms An unmonitored alarm activates an external sounder and strobe when triggered. While this can deter intruders and alert neighbours, there is no guarantee that anyone will respond, particularly if the property is in an isolated location. Unmonitored systems are suitable for lower-risk properties where budget is a primary concern. Monitored Alarm Systems A monitored burglar alarm is connected to an NSI Gold or equivalent Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) that operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. When the alarm is triggered, the monitoring centre receives an instant signal and follows a pre-agreed response procedure. Monitoring options include: Keyholder response — the ARC contacts nominated keyholders who can attend the premises and investigate. PSNI police response — for URN-registered systems installed by SSAIB-certified companies like Advanced Overwatch, the PSNI will respond to confirmed alarm activations. This is the highest level of intruder alarm response available in Northern Ireland. Guard response — a mobile patrol officer is dispatched to the premises to investigate the activation. Police response requires that the alarm system is installed and maintained to the relevant standards by an SSAIB or NSI-approved installer. Advanced Overwatch holds full SSAIB certification and can register your system with the PSNI for police response. Residential Burglar Alarms Protecting your home and family is a top priority. A professionally installed burglar alarm provides peace of mind, whether you are at home, at work or on holiday. Our residential alarm systems include: PIR motion detectors covering entry points and key internal areas Door and window contacts on all accessible openings External sounders with strobe lights to deter intruders and alert neighbours Smart app control for arming, disarming and monitoring from your phone Integration with CCTV cameras, video doorbells and smart lighting Optional 24/7 monitoring with keyholder or police response Many home insurance policies require an intruder alarm system to be installed, and some specify that it must be fitted by an SSAIB-certified installer. Advanced Overwatch provides all the documentation and certification that your insurer needs. Commercial Burglar Alarms Business premises face different security challenges to residential properties. Commercial burglar alarms from Advanced Overwatch are designed to protect offices, retail shops, warehouses, factories, healthcare facilities, hospitality venues and multi-site operations. Our commercial alarm solutions include: Multi-zone systems with independent areas for different parts of the building Integration with access control to automatically set and unset alarms Staff management features including individual user codes and access logs Connection to CCTV for alarm verification and visual confirmation Remote management via web portal or smartphone app Multi-site monitoring from a single platform Compliance with insurance and regulatory requirements For businesses operating across multiple locations, we provide centralised management solutions that allow you to monitor and control all of your alarm systems from one interface, with real-time status updates and detailed event reporting. Our Alarm Brands & Manufacturers Advanced Overwatch is an approved installer for the leading intruder alarm manufacturers, including Texecom, HKC, Pyronix, Honeywell, Risco and Ajax. We select the most appropriate equipment for each installation based on the property type, risk assessment, monitoring requirements and budget. All equipment we install is sourced from authorised distributors and comes with full manufacturer warranties. Insurance Compliance & SSAIB Certification Many insurance companies require that burglar alarm systems are installed and maintained by an SSAIB-certified or NSI-approved company. Failure to comply with these requirements can invalidate your insurance policy, leaving you unprotected in the eve --- ## CCTV Rental Systems NI URL: https://advancedoverwatch.com/services/cctv-rental-systems-northern-ireland/ Coleraine: 02870 878077 Derry/LDerry: 02871 878123 Belfast: 02890 993566 Magherafelt: 02879 668330 Omagh: 02882 888166 Rental CCTV Systems from 89p per day Our high tech CCTV Rental Systems are a great way to have a new IP Camera System installed without large setup costs.

Types of CCTV Systems We Install Every site has different security requirements. Advanced Overwatch installs a comprehensive range of CCTV technologies to match your specific needs and budget: IP Camera Systems Internet Protocol cameras deliver superior image quality, remote access capability and advanced analytics. IP systems transmit footage over your network, allowing centralised recording, cloud backup and seamless integration with access control, intruder alarms and building management systems. We install IP CCTV systems from 2MP right up to 32MP ultra-high resolution cameras. 4K and Ultra High Definition (UHD) CCTV For sites where evidential-quality footage is paramount — retail environments, car parks, building entrances — our 4K UHD cameras capture exceptional detail. Number plates, facial features and clothing descriptions are clearly identifiable even when digitally zoomed, giving you footage that stands up as evidence. Analogue and HD-CVI Systems If you have existing coaxial cabling infrastructure, our HD-CVI and analogue solutions allow you to upgrade image quality without a full cable replacement. This is a cost-effective route for sites looking to modernise legacy CCTV systems while controlling installation costs. Thermal Imaging Cameras Thermal cameras detect heat signatures rather than visible light, making them highly effective for perimeter protection in complete darkness, adverse weather or challenging environments. We deploy thermal imaging for critical infrastructure, industrial sites, fuel depots and large outdoor areas where conventional cameras may struggle. ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) Our ANPR camera systems automatically capture and log vehicle registration plates, enabling automated access control for car parks, secure compounds and gated communities. ANPR integrates with barrier systems, databases and alert platforms to flag vehicles of interest in real time. Wireless and Rapid-Deployment CCTV For temporary requirements such as construction sites, events or short-term projects, our rapid-deployment CCTV towers and wireless camera systems provide full surveillance capability without permanent infrastructure. These systems can be operational within hours and relocated as your project evolves.

Since the GDPR came into force there has been a rise in the number of SARs (Subject Access Requests) from individuals. Often overlooked, is the need, where necesary, for masking / pixilation of third parties in footage not related to the SAR. Our CCTV redaction service is prompt and detail-focused. We provide expert knowledge to help you meet your privacy needs to help you mitigate risks and achieve compliance. What is CCTV Video Redaction? CCTV Video Redaction involves obscuring identifying information within individual video frames.

This information will be blurred out or pixelated through our service. Why do you need to redact CCTV footage? In some cases, redaction of third party individuals in CCTV or video footage is required because of the privacy intrusion which would result if they are identified or identifiable.

Whether you need a single door reader for a small office or a multi-site integrated system managing hundreds of credentials, our SSAIB-certified engineers design solutions around your building, your workflow, and your security requirements. We work with leading access control brands including Paxton, Abloy, iLOQ and AJAX — and as key integrators with these manufacturers, we can source, configure and support the equipment our customers need without compromise. Get a free site survey: call 028 7087 8077 or request a survey online . What Is Access Control? Access control is any system that governs who can enter or exit a space, when, and under what conditions. It replaces or supplements traditional keys with electronic credentials — cards, fobs, PINs, mobile devices, or biometrics — giving you a complete audit trail of every access event. For businesses in Northern Ireland, access control delivers three things a physical key never can: Instant revocation — lost key? Cancel the credential immediately, no lock change needed. Time-based permissions — staff can access relevant areas only during their shift. Audit trail — a timestamped record of who entered where and when, useful for HR, insurance, and compliance purposes. Access Control Solutions We Install Door Entry and Reader Systems The most common form of access control: a reader on the door, a credential on the user, a controller making the decision. We install proximity card readers, fob readers, PIN pads, and combined readers across single and multi-door configurations. Popular for offices, warehouses, schools, healthcare facilities, and any building where you need controlled entry without a manned reception. Paxton Access Control Paxton is one of the UK and Ireland’s most widely installed access control brands, and Advanced Overwatch is an experienced Paxton installer across Northern Ireland. The Paxton Net2 range offers scalable systems from a single door to enterprise-wide installations with reporting, time and attendance, and visitor management. Paxton’s Switch2 platform suits smaller premises that need straightforward, reliable access control without complexity. Abloy and iLOQ — High-Security Locking For businesses where physical key security is paramount, Abloy and iLOQ offer cylinder-based mechatronic access control that combines the strength of a mechanical lock with the convenience of electronic access management. As a key integrator for both Abloy and iLOQ in Ireland, Advanced Overwatch installs these systems in environments where standard card access is not sufficient — vaults, server rooms, pharmaceutical stores, critical infrastructure, and high-value retail. iLOQ is particularly suited to large key estates: its self-powered cylinders require no wiring or battery replacement, making it ideal for buildings where cable installation is impractical. AJAX Access Control AJAX Systems — best known for their wireless intruder alarm range — now offer a powerful access control module that integrates directly with their security hub. For buildings already running AJAX alarms, this provides a unified security platform: arm the alarm and lock the building with a single action. Advanced Overwatch installs AJAX access control as both standalone solutions and as part of fully integrated AJAX security systems. Intercom and Video Door Entry Before access control comes identification. We install intercom and video door entry systems — audio-only, colour video, and IP-based — that allow your reception, security desk, or any authorised user to verify a visitor before granting entry. Video door entry integrates with access control to create a complete front-of-house security layer: see, verify, and release from anywhere in the building, or remotely via smartphone. Car Park Barriers and Gate Automation External access is as important as internal. We install automatic barriers, rising arm gates, and electric swing and sliding gates with access control integration — ANPR (automatic number plate recognition), proximity cards, or remote release. Common applications include staff car parks, delivery yards, apartment complexes, and retail sites. Lift Access Control Restricting elevator access to authorised floors is often overlooked but essential in multi-tenancy buildings, hotels, and healthcare facilities. We integrate lift access control with your existing reader system so that a single credential handles both floor-level and lift access. Integration with CCTV and Intruder Alarms Standalone access control works. Integrated access control works better. When your access control system shares a platform with your CCTV and intruder alarm, you get: Video linked to access events — see exactly who badged in at a specific door at a specific time, with the camera footage linked automatically Alarm on forced entry or door-held-open — the system detects a door opened without a valid credential and triggers an alert Single management platform — one interface for all your security data, rather than three separate systems with no communication between them Advanced Overwatch designs and installs integrated security systems as a core specialism. We do not treat access control as an afterthought — it is part of a coherent security strategy from the outset. Who We Install Access Control For Commercial offices — from a single entry door to multi-floor, multi-building estates. We work with small businesses through to large corporate sites. Retail — controlled staff access to stockrooms, cash offices, and back-of-house areas. Prevents shrinkage and creates an audit trail without disrupting customer flow. Schools and educational facilities — safeguarding-compliant access control that limits visitor access to controlled entry points and records all site movements. Healthcare and care homes — COSHH store access, medication room control, and wander prevention systems that meet the specific requirements of the Care Inspectorate and healthcare regulation in Northern Ireland. Manufacturing and industrial — access to hazardous areas, plant rooms, and controlled zones. Time-based access tied to shift patterns. Hospitality and licensed premises — staff access to service areas, cash handling rooms, and storage with a full audit trail for compliance. Apartment complexes and social housing — main entrance control, car park management, and remote release for residents. Why Choose Advanced Overwatch for Access Control?

Free site survey available. SSAIB-Certified Intruder Alarm Installation Advanced Overwatch is one of Northern Ireland’s leading SSAIB-certified security companies, specialising in the design, installation and maintenance of burglar alarm systems for residential and commercial properties. Covering Dungiven, Belfast, Newry, Enniskillen and Strabane and the wider region, our team of qualified engineers provides expert intruder alarm installation across every county in Northern Ireland. Whether you are protecting a family home, a retail unit, a large commercial premises or a multi-site operation, we deliver bespoke burglar alarm solutions that are tailored to your specific security requirements. Every system we install meets the highest industry standards and is fully compliant with insurance and police response requirements. Our SSAIB certification demonstrates that our work is independently audited to the highest standards. This means you can trust that your alarm system has been designed, installed and commissioned by qualified professionals who are regularly assessed for quality and competence. Types of Burglar Alarm Systems Choosing the right type of intruder alarm depends on the size of your property, the level of risk, your budget and whether you need remote monitoring or police response. Advanced Overwatch installs a comprehensive range of burglar alarm technologies: Wired Alarm Systems Wired intruder alarms remain the gold standard for reliability. Each detector is physically connected to the control panel via cabling, which eliminates any risk of wireless interference or signal loss. Wired systems are ideal for new-build properties, major renovations and commercial installations where long-term reliability is paramount. They are generally preferred by insurers and monitoring stations due to their superior dependability. Wireless Alarm Systems Wireless burglar alarms use radio frequency communication between detectors and the control panel. Modern wireless systems are highly secure, using encrypted signals that are resistant to jamming and interference. They are perfect for retrofit installations, listed buildings and properties where running cables would be impractical or undesirable. Installation is faster and less disruptive than wired alternatives. Hybrid Alarm Systems Hybrid systems combine the best of both worlds, using wired connections where cabling is accessible and wireless detectors in areas that are difficult to reach. This approach maximises flexibility whilst maintaining the reliability of a hardwired backbone. Hybrid systems are increasingly popular for commercial premises undergoing phased security upgrades. Smart & App-Connected Alarm Systems Modern burglar alarms can be connected to smartphone applications, allowing you to arm, disarm and monitor your system from anywhere in the world. Smart alarm systems send instant push notifications when an alarm is triggered and allow you to check the status of your property at any time. Integration with smart home devices such as cameras, doorbells and lighting creates a comprehensive connected security ecosystem. Commercial-Grade Intruder Alarm Systems For larger commercial properties, we install enterprise-grade alarm systems with multiple partitions, zoning capabilities and integration with access control and CCTV. These systems can protect complex sites with multiple buildings, different access levels and hundreds of detection zones. Commercial-grade panels from leading manufacturers provide the scalability and reliability that businesses demand. Monitored vs Unmonitored Burglar Alarms One of the most important decisions when choosing a burglar alarm is whether to opt for a monitored or unmonitored system. Unmonitored (Bells-Only) Alarms An unmonitored alarm activates an external sounder and strobe when triggered. While this can deter intruders and alert neighbours, there is no guarantee that anyone will respond, particularly if the property is in an isolated location. Unmonitored systems are suitable for lower-risk properties where budget is a primary concern. Monitored Alarm Systems A monitored burglar alarm is connected to an NSI Gold or equivalent Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) that operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. When the alarm is triggered, the monitoring centre receives an instant signal and follows a pre-agreed response procedure. Monitoring options include: Keyholder response — the ARC contacts nominated keyholders who can attend the premises and investigate. PSNI police response — for URN-registered systems installed by SSAIB-certified companies like Advanced Overwatch, the PSNI will respond to confirmed alarm activations. This is the highest level of intruder alarm response available in Northern Ireland. Guard response — a mobile patrol officer is dispatched to the premises to investigate the activation. Police response requires that the alarm system is installed and maintained to the relevant standards by an SSAIB or NSI-approved installer. Advanced Overwatch holds full SSAIB certification and can register your system with the PSNI for police response. Residential Burglar Alarms Protecting your home and family is a top priority. A professionally installed burglar alarm provides peace of mind, whether you are at home, at work or on holiday. Our residential alarm systems include: PIR motion detectors covering entry points and key internal areas Door and window contacts on all accessible openings External sounders with strobe lights to deter intruders and alert neighbours Smart app control for arming, disarming and monitoring from your phone Integration with CCTV cameras, video doorbells and smart lighting Optional 24/7 monitoring with keyholder or police response Many home insurance policies require an intruder alarm system to be installed, and some specify that it must be fitted by an SSAIB-certified installer. Advanced Overwatch provides all the documentation and certification that your insurer needs. Commercial Burglar Alarms Business premises face different security challenges to residential properties. Commercial burglar alarms from Advanced Overwatch are designed to protect offices, retail shops, warehouses, factories, healthcare facilities, hospitality venues and multi-site operations. Our commercial alarm solutions include: Multi-zone systems with independent areas for different parts of the building Integration with access control to automatically set and unset alarms Staff management features including individual user codes and access logs Connection to CCTV for alarm verification and visual confirmation Remote management via web portal or smartphone app Multi-site monitoring from a single platform Compliance with insurance and regulatory requirements For businesses operating across multiple locations, we provide centralised management solutions that allow you to monitor and control all of your alarm systems from one interface, with real-time status updates and detailed event reporting. Our Alarm Brands & Manufacturers Advanced Overwatch is an approved installer for the leading intruder alarm manufacturers, including Texecom, HKC, Pyronix, Honeywell, Risco and Ajax. We select the most appropriate equipment for each installation based on the property type, risk assessment, monitoring requirements and budget. All equipment we install is sourced from authorised distributors and comes with full manufacturer warranties. Insurance Compliance & SSAIB Certification Many insurance companies require that burglar alarm systems are installed and maintained by an SSAIB-certified or NSI-approved company. Failure to comply with these requirements can invalidate your insurance policy, leaving you unprotected in the eve --- ## Fire Alarm Installation Northern Ireland – Advanced Overwatch URL: https://advancedoverwatch.com/services/fire-alarm-installation-northern-ireland/ Coleraine: 02870 878077 Derry/LDerry: 02871 878123 Belfast: 02890 993566 Magherafelt: 02879 668330 Omagh: 02882 888166 Fire Alarm Installation Northern Ireland Professional fire alarm installation and maintenance. BS 5839 compliant systems with free site surveys across all six counties. Professional Fire Alarm Installation Advanced Overwatch is a professional fire alarm installer providing fire detection and alarm system design, installation, commissioning and maintenance across Northern Ireland. Covering Dungiven, Belfast, Newry, Enniskillen and Strabane and the wider region, our qualified fire alarm engineers deliver BS 5839 compliant systems for commercial, industrial and residential properties throughout all six counties. Fire safety is not optional — it is a legal requirement. The Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 places a duty on the responsible person to ensure that adequate fire detection and warning systems are in place. Advanced Overwatch helps building owners, landlords, facilities managers and business operators meet these obligations with professionally designed and installed fire alarm systems that comply with all relevant British Standards and regulatory requirements. Every system we design and install is delivered to BS 5839 and supported by full commissioning and certification documentation, giving you independent, auditable evidence that your fire alarm work meets the required British Standards. Types of Fire Alarm Systems The type of fire alarm system required depends on the size and complexity of the building, the level of risk, the occupancy type and the applicable British Standard category. Advanced Overwatch installs all major types of fire alarm system: Conventional Fire Alarm Systems Conventional systems divide the building into zones, with detectors wired in circuits back to the main control panel. When a detector activates, the panel identifies the zone but not the individual device. Conventional systems are cost-effective and well-suited to smaller buildings with straightforward layouts such as small offices, shops and community buildings. Addressable Fire Alarm Systems In an addressable system, every detector and call point has a unique address on the loop. When a device activates, the control panel identifies the exact device location, enabling faster investigation and response. Addressable systems are essential for larger buildings, complex layouts and premises where rapid identification of the fire location is critical. Analogue Addressable Fire Alarm Systems Analogue addressable systems represent the most advanced form of conventional fire detection. Each detector continuously reports its environmental readings (smoke density, temperature) to the control panel, which uses intelligent algorithms to distinguish between genuine fire conditions and false alarms. These systems offer superior false alarm management and are the preferred choice for hospitals, schools, hotels and large commercial buildings. Wireless Fire Alarm Systems Wireless fire alarm systems use radio frequency communication between detectors and the control panel. They are ideal for listed buildings, heritage properties and premises where installing cabling would be impractical or prohibited. Modern wireless fire alarm systems meet the same British Standards as wired equivalents and are fully approved for use in all building types. Fire Detection Devices Selecting the correct detection devices is critical to ensuring rapid fire detection whilst minimising false alarms. Advanced Overwatch specifies and installs the full range of fire detection technologies: Optical smoke detectors — detect visible smoke particles using a light-scattering principle. Ideal for detecting slow-smouldering fires in offices, bedrooms and corridors. Heat detectors — respond to rises in temperature rather than smoke. Used in kitchens, boiler rooms, garages and other areas where smoke detectors would cause false alarms. Multi-sensor detectors — combine optical smoke and heat detection in a single device, using algorithms to analyse both inputs simultaneously. Multi-sensor detectors offer the best combination of fast detection and low false alarm rates. Beam detectors — project an infrared beam across large open spaces such as warehouses, churches and atriums. When smoke interrupts the beam, an alarm is triggered. Beam detectors are ideal for protecting areas with high ceilings where point detectors would be impractical. Aspirating smoke detection (ASD) — a network of sampling pipes continuously draws air from the protected area into a highly sensitive detection chamber. ASD systems such as VESDA can detect smoke at extremely early stages, making them essential for data centres, server rooms, clean rooms and high-value storage areas. Manual call points — allow building occupants to manually trigger the fire alarm. Required at every exit point on every floor as specified by BS 5839. Fire Alarm Design & British Standards All fire alarm systems must be designed in accordance with the relevant British Standards. Advanced Overwatch designs fire alarm systems to comply with: BS 5839-1: Commercial & Non-Domestic Premises BS 5839 Part 1 covers the design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of fire detection and alarm systems in non-domestic premises. The standard defines several system categories: Category L1 — protection throughout all areas of the building, providing the earliest possible warning of fire. Category L2 — protection of escape routes and rooms adjoining escape routes, plus areas of high fire risk. Category L3 — protection of escape routes only, including corridors, stairwells and lobbies. Category L4 — protection of escape routes within circulation areas only (corridors and stairways). Category L5 — protection of specific areas identified by a fire risk assessment. Category M — manual fire alarm system with call points only, no automatic detection. Category P1 — property protection throughout the entire building. Category P2 — property protection in defined areas only. BS 5839-6: Residential Premises BS 5839 Part 6 covers fire detection and alarm systems in residential properties including houses, flats and houses in multiple occupation (HMOs). The standard specifies minimum grades and categories of system depending on the property type and risk level. Commercial Fire Alarms Advanced Overwatch designs and installs fire alarm systems for all types of commercial and non-domestic premises, including: Offices — Category L3 or higher depending on risk assessment, often with integration to access control and building management systems. Retail premises — addressable systems with zoning to enable phased evacuation in larger stores and shopping centres. Manufacturing & warehousing — specialist detection including beam detectors and aspirating systems for large open areas with high ceilings. Healthcare facilities — analogue addressable systems with staff alarm and staged evacuation capabilities to protect vulnerable patients. Education — schools, colleges and universities requiring robust systems with anti-vandal devices and high false alarm resilience. Hospitality — hotels, restaurants and licensed premises with overnight sleeping risk, requiring Category L1 or L2 systems with voice alarm integration. Residential Fire Alarms & Landlord Obligations Landlords in Northern Ireland have a legal duty to ensure that their rental properties are fitted with adequate fire detection. The specific requirements depend on the property type: Standard rental properties — must have working smoke alarms on every floor and a carbon monoxide detector in rooms with solid fuel appliances. Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs) — require a fire alarm system designed and installed to BS 5839-6, typically Grade A Category LD2 with a central control panel, mains-powered detectors and monitored sounders. Purpose-built flats — building regulations require compliant fire detection --- ## Another first.

It acts as a deterrent, discouraging potential burglars from targeting the property. A burglar alarm also provides an early warning system, alerting our control room. This allows us to take immediate action, such as contacting the blue light emergency service for fire and police. Additionally, a burglar alarm can lower insurance premiums, as it reduces the risk of theft and property damage. Overall, investing in a burglar alarm is a proactive measure that helps protect your premises, contents, and people. Why is alarm monitoring important? Having your alarm system monitored is crucial for several reasons. With monitoring, our trained professionals are alerted immediately when an alarm is triggered, allowing for a swift response to any potential threats. This can greatly reduce the risk of theft, vandalism, or other criminal activities. Additionally, monitored alarm systems from Advanced Overwatch can provide peace of mind, knowing that someone is always keeping an eye on your property, even when you’re not there. Burglar Alarm response In the event of an emergency, the monitoring center can quickly contact the appropriate authorities, ensuring a rapid response and potentially saving lives.

We have an “old-school” ethic towards business; honesty, reliability and trustworthiness, and never let our customers down. Issues happen. It’s how we deal with them that matters. We overcome technical difficulties without drama and usually transparently to the end user. We are known for going the extra mile, and when you need us we are there . Company history The company was founded when like minded professionals working in the security industry for many years noticed a growing trend in their customer base. To complete a job or project usually meant having to contact and organise two or more companies due to the specific and highly skilled nature of some of the services being provided. This was inconvenient for customers. We knew there was a better way. By combining decades of experience from multiple disciplines, Advanced Overwatch provides complete end to end security solutions that remove customer frustrations, delays and costs that occur from traditionally having to use multiple companies. We have extensive service offerings with highly skilled and qualified security professionals enabling us to complete projects from inception right through to completion, all in-house and without the need to work with multiple contractors. Why we stand out from the crowd We take pride in what we do. Our security solutions keep people, businesses and assets safe. Advance Overwatch is unique in the security industry having what we believe to be the best combination of skills, people and expertise available. This allows us to design and implement the most appropriate security, telecom, data or electrical solution based specifically on our customer needs and not dependent on what others can offer. Your satisfaction is also ours Pride in completing a project is one thing, seeing the results first hand for our customers is another. Our services offer peace of mind and often restoring a feeling of security and protection – this is the reason that our company exists. We put the same enthusiasm and drive into a town centre CCTV installation as we do a single panic alarm or CCTV solution for an older, vulnerable or disabled person living alone. We offer a satisfaction guarantee and full warranty on all parts and labour – some of our solutions are guaranteed for up to 25 years. We can offer such extended guarantees as our workmanship, products and services are all governed by the highest international standards.

View more on: Yell.com Facebook Reviews “Reputable Security Company” Professional and highly knowledgeable. Would recommend to any business looking for a reputable security company. “First Class Work” Found this company on Google, their website stood out from the rest of the competition. What was really impressive was that they costed the CCTV System within two hours, and could install within 4 days. Their installation team of two technicians were really knowledgeable, and the standard of their work was first class, as was the quality of the equipment. Would highly recommend this company as they ensured that before they left our house we fully understood the system, which was much appreciated. “Highly Recommended” Knowing little to nothing about camera systems, the gentlemen visited, recommended and installed a top quality system at our business. We are extremely pleased with the quality of the system, the images are crystal clear. We would highly recommend this company, very friendly and knowledgeable. “Thorough Professional Service” We have just moved all our fire servicing of a 5 storey multi-tenant office block in Coleraine to Advanced Overwatch. We would fully recommend them as we found them very reliable and thorough in their work with very good communication. Glad we found a local firm that can give us the level of personal service and professional competence we need to give us peace of mind about our fire system. “Quality Equipment” Quality equipment installed, reasonably priced and knowledgeable engineers. Would highly recommend. Thanks for a job well done. “Spectacular Results” Thank you for providing CCTV streaming at the Red Sails Festival. Spectacular results. The number of views was incredible.

CCTV Systems – Design, Installation, Integration and Maintenance NSI Code of Practice for Design, Installation and Maintenance of CCTV Systems The National Security Inspectorate (NSI) has launched a new edition of its CCTV code of practice for the design, installation and maintenance of CCTV surveillance systems – NCP 104 Issue 3. This edition includes guidance on protecting systems from cyber risks and emphasises the importance of thoroughly assessing customer security risks and requirements when developing CCTV system design. The new NCP 104 provides installers with detailed recommendations and guidance to be followed as part of delivering a CCTV system design and ensures sustainability, functionality and effectiveness of a system. The course covers the latest standard BS EN 62676-4:2015, (the current application guidelines for the use of video surveillance systems in security applications), but simplifies the process of system development and testing, by omitting specific requirements regarding system grading and the use of some specific image testing requirements. Introduces requirements for design areas such as network (cyber) security, detectors, video analysis, audio and cabling, that are not covered by in BS EN 62676-4 and also covering current technologies and terminology. Stands alone from BS 8418 which relates to the installation of remotely monitored detector activated CCTV systems.
