Intruder alarmsLoud when it matters.

Our installation team are electricians specialised in intruder and fire alarms. They take pride in their work and sometimes share photos of their panel cabling. We have it down to a science, from first visit to handover paperwork.

01 / Who responds

Three ways
to keep watch.

Years ago there was only central station. Now there are three options. Pick the one that fits.

A real person calls

Central station

Your alarm goes to MCM in Cork, our partner for over 20 years. If it activates, you may well get a Cork man ringing to ask are you okay. They are truly a great partner.

Hand using a smart control panel at home

Self-monitor with the app

The HKC app sends notifications and gives you full control from anywhere: turn the system on or off, or switch on security lights. A powerful app, and the most common choice now.

Just tells you

Simple notification

A plain alert that your alarm has gone off. You cannot control the system, but you can check your CCTV to see what is going on.

02 / When it goes off

A sensor trips

A door opens or a detector picks up movement while the system is set.

The alert goes out

The bell box on your front elevation flashes blue and sounds, and the signal leaves the panel.

Someone responds

Depending on your choice: a person in Cork, your phone, or a simple notification.

03 / Wired or wireless

Same protection.
Different walls.

Drag across to compare. Wired is the long-standing gold standard for new builds and renovations, where cable can run neatly through the structure. HKC's Quantum wire-free system has all the functionality of a wired one, perfect for finished buildings where wiring would be difficult or expensive.

The bell box
