Preventive Maintenance
Preventive maintenance is the most cost-effective way to protect your security investment. Rather than waiting for systems to fail, our scheduled maintenance programmes identify and address potential issues before they become critical.
Our preventive maintenance plans include thorough cleaning of cameras and sensors, battery testing and replacement, cable and connection inspections, system performance benchmarking, and environmental assessments of equipment housings.
Studies show that preventive maintenance can extend the lifespan of security equipment by up to 40% and reduce emergency callouts by over 60%. It also helps maintain warranty coverage and ensures compliance with local fire and safety regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often does a preventive maintenance visit take place?
The standard plan includes two full preventive maintenance visits per year (bi-annual). Systems in high-risk or high-traffic environments — such as industrial facilities, hospitals, or busy commercial properties — benefit from quarterly visits, which can be included in an upgraded plan.
Which systems benefit most from preventive maintenance?
All security and fire safety systems benefit, but CCTV cameras and fire detectors see the greatest reliability improvement through preventive maintenance. Camera lenses accumulate dust and moisture that degrade image quality, while smoke and heat detectors lose sensitivity as particles settle on sensing elements. Regular cleaning and calibration restore performance to manufacturer specifications.
Can I add or remove systems from my plan?
Yes. Preventive plans are flexible — you can add new systems as you expand your installation and remove systems that are decommissioned. Changes take effect at the next renewal anniversary. There is no penalty for adjusting the scope of your plan.
What documentation do I receive after each maintenance visit?
After every visit our technician produces a written service report covering each system inspected, actions taken, any faults found, parts replaced, and system performance readings. Reports are issued in PDF format within 24 hours of the visit and are retained in your service history for insurance and compliance purposes.
