Part Arming by Zone

Really pleased with this alarm. The positives: All of the components are totally wireless (apart from the hub which is connected to mains power) so extremely easy to fit sensors and alarm units where required. The external alarm unit is solar powered but works on ambient light and doesn't need direct sunlight. The hub itself connects to the broadband hub via Wi-Fi so no need for LAN cable. The sensors work over a large range (up to 80m) so we have PIR and door sensors for the external garage which is 30m distance and several walls away from the hub. The PIR sensors are great and not triggered by small pets. The App on the phone is great too. You are alerted when the alarm is triggered and can arm/disarm when away from home if you forget. (You can also add a sim card to the hub using mobile phone network instead of WiFi but we have not done this). You can also add other components like cctv.

The negatives: There are tamper switches on the sensors and alarm units so the alarm does get triggered a few times when fitting the system (just mention it to you neighbours in advance and consider ear plugs!). The max sensor range is 80m but is reduced with walls so we couldn't cover our garden shed reliably at 50m from the house as there are too many walls in between as well. One issue is you can not have a sensor set up for "home zone" and a "delay" you have to choose one. I would have liked to have had the front and back doors alarmed with the garage when we are at home but as we need a delay on the doors they are not active when we are at home.

Overall I'm really pleased, it works extremely well and would highly recommend it.

Good Alarm, easy enough to Install. Setup didn't work properly with my phone, but I used another phone and it set up fine. It operates well on my phone now. Good Helpline that helped me get through these small glitches. Now that it is set up, I am happy with it, easy to set and switch off with the fobs. Got a camera as well, it operates independent to the alarm. It is not infra red so doesn't see in the dark, this is something ERA should update as infra red cameras are widely available for a similar price.

    Please can you advise why the Three network sim can't be used?
    Simon, Hemel Hempstead
    Three works on a 3G only sim card. This product is only suitable for 2G as it only needs to contact you through a telephone call or text notification.

    You say you can use a PAY/GO sim how much typically per month is needed to be added and how do you know when credit has run out?
    Kerry Eames, Portsmouth
    The alarm system would contact you via WiFi, however if your internet connectivity experienced problems the Sim card would only be used in emergency's to contact you so you do not need to top it up per month. You can always check the balance of your sim card by calling your provider.

    How close does the PIR sensor need to be to the Hub, as i would like to alarm my shed using this system.
    Kevin, Donhead St. Andrew
    The components for this kit can be placed up to 80 meters away from the central HUB.

    Is this system compatible with a keypad? I noticed there’s one in the additional accessories. Also is the door sensor able to be on a short delay, so you can open the door and have 30 seconds or so to use the keypad to disable the alarm?
    Tom, Sheffield
    The Keypad is compatible with this system. An entry and exit time can be set to allow you to activate and de-activate the alarm.

    Professional Installation Services for Intruder & Burglar Alarms

    We're all about peace of mind here at Safe. That's why we offer an affordable and convenient installation service on most items.

    Standard Alarm Installation

    We offer professional installation on our complete range of wireless alarm kits, for the home or business.

    Our experienced engineer will complete a brief site inspection and then discuss their findings with you to agree equipment positioning before commencing the installation of your Alarm Kit, including hub, all components (including selected components purchased from Safe.co.uk) and the wireless external siren.

    Your installation will include positioning motion sensors in areas to provide the most suitable sensor coverage and locating the external siren in a highly visible location. Final positions will be governed by safe site access and the effect of the building on wireless range, including wall thickness, building materials and location of your Wi-Fi equipment.

    You must ensure that adequate power is available for the alarm hub (one power socket) and that easy access is available to your broadband router as this will need to be connected to your alarm hub using an ethernet cable. If your router is not close to where you intend to position the alarm hub we advise purchasing a powerline adaptor prior to install.

    The engineer will set up remote monitoring on one device and then carry out a final assessment to confirm that your new system is fully operational.

    Non-standard Alarm Installation

    In some cases, it may be necessary to install additional materials or provide extra resources (manpower) to facilitate an installation in a safe manner.

    If additional costs are likely these will be discussed with you prior to installation. Reasons for extra costs might include:

    • Large commercial buildings such as warehouses and office blocks.
    • Additional alarm devices not supplied by Safe.co.uk.
    • Specialised access equipment and permits such as hoists, lifts and cranes.
    • Outside of normal hours working (Mon-Fri, 9am to 5pm).
    • 4x4 Vehicular access requirements to remote rural sites.
    • Road closure including necessary permits.
    • Additional manpower to overcome technical, lifting or safety access issues.

    We offer installation throughout the UK mainland, however some more remote and rural post codes in the Highlands are subject to a surcharge to cover additional fuel and traveling time costs.

    The following areas will incur a rural travel surcharge:

    £55.00 Surcharge Areas

    • PH 1 - 26 (No coverage in other PH postcodes)
    • PA 1 - 19 (No coverage in other PA postcodes)
    • KA 19, 26
    • ML 11, 12

    £105.00 Surcharge Areas

    • IV 01-17, 30,31,32 (No coverage in other IV postcodes)
    • AB
    • DD
    • TD
    • DG
    • KW

    These additional elements are deemed to fall outside the definition of a 'Standard Installation'. If you feel your installation might be non-standard please contact us to discuss your individual requirements.

    If applicable, additional costs are to be paid before installation begins.

    Warranty Terms & Conditions

    Our installer provides a standard 12 month warranty on all new installations and a 3 month warranty on all materials provided during maintenance visits.

    Note: Existing system components and pre-supplied equipment are not included in the installation warranty as these elements are covered by the Manufacturer warranty.

    We reserve the right to undertake an ‘Assessment Call’ without prejudice to investigate any complaints relating to materials failure or poor workmanship to assess if the complaint is valid. Please note that remedial service calls generated by elements outside of our sphere of influence or due to different fault conditions will be chargeable to you at an agreed call out charge.

    In scenarios where you request a post installation service call and our assessment identifies the fault condition or cause of the fault falls outside of the limitations of the standard installation warranty (Force Majeure, different fault etc) a call out charge will be incurred for the visit.

    Assessment calls raised for reasons outside our sphere of influence or responsibility and not covered by the standard installation will incur a call out charge for labour and additional materials.

    The following are examples of when a call out charge would be incurred:

    • Accidental Damage
      The Alarm system is knocked off alignment by high winds or moving objects such as ladders, footballs or people.
    • Malicious Damage
      The Alarm system has been physically damaged by vandals or DIY.
    • Materials Failure
      Previously Installed equipment (existing) or equipment included in the pre-purchased kit are deemed to be at fault. Faulty equipment such as the alarm hub, sensors, and power supply units are covered by the manufacturer warranty.
    • System Modification
      A request that the installed system be modified such as sensors or the external siren be repositioned post installation.
    • Incorrect Diagnosis
      The customers web portal, broadband connectivity or Mobile App are identified as being at fault or incorrectly operated by the user when trying to access the system. This includes user error and any form of software / firmware upgrades post installation.
