🚨 Is your intruder alarm keeping up with your business?

If your alarm system still relies on a basic bell box and a phone call to a keyholder, you could be missing out on the protection modern technology offers.

At ADP Security, we install Texecom intruder alarm systems that put you in control 📱

✅ Instant smartphone alerts when your alarm activates
✅ Arm or disarm your system remotely — no need to be on site
✅ Link your alarm to CCTV for visual verification of every trigger
✅ Zone-based detection tailored to your premises layout
✅ Designed to reduce false alarms while maximising protection

Every system we install starts with a free site survey, so we can understand your building, your routine, and your security priorities. Then we design a solution that fits — not an off-the-shelf package.

We’ve been protecting businesses across Hampshire, Surrey, and Sussex for nearly 30 years. SSAIB certified. ISO accredited. One trusted partner for everything from alarms to CCTV, access control, and monitoring.

SSAIB Certified — Here’s Why That Matters for Your Security 🔒

When you’re choosing a company to install your security system, how do you know they’re actually up to standard? That’s where SSAIB certification comes in — and it’s something every customer should be asking about.

The SSAIB is the UK’s leading certification body for security and fire alarm companies. At ADP Security Systems, we’re proud to hold SSAIB certification, which means we’re independently audited against the highest British and European standards every year.

So what does the audit actually involve? 🔍

SSAIB assessors visit us on-site to inspect live installations, review our technical documentation, and assess the competence of our engineering team. They check everything — from the quality of our wiring and equipment to our health and safety procedures and how we manage projects from start to finish.

We’re assessed against standards like BS EN 50131 (intruder alarms), BS EN 62676 (CCTV), and BS 5839 (fire detection). These aren’t optional guidelines — they’re the benchmarks that separate professional, quality-assured installers from the rest.

Here’s something many people don’t realise — police response to monitored alarms is often only available if the system was installed by an SSAIB-certified company. If your installer isn’t certified, your alarm may not get the emergency response you’re counting on. That’s a significant risk. ⚠️

We know that uncertified companies sometimes offer lower prices. But without independent auditing, there’s no way to verify the quality of their work. Poor installations lead to false alarms, unreliable systems, and a false sense of security.

At ADP, our SSAIB certification is backed by ISO 9001, ISO 14001, SIA Approved Contractor status, and BSIA membership. We’ve been delivering trusted, accredited security solutions across Hampshire, Surrey, and Sussex for nearly 30 years.

Don’t leave your security to chance. Ask the question: “Are you SSAIB certified?”

Your Virtual Security Guard — Watching Over Your Business 24/7 🔒

Imagine having a trained security professional keeping an eye on your premises every hour of the day and night — without the cost of someone physically being there.

That's what ADP's remote monitoring service delivers. 💡

Here's how it works: your CCTV cameras, intruder alarms, and fire alarms are connected to a professional monitoring centre. Trained operators watch your site around the clock and respond the moment something happens.

🎯 Verified alarm response — operators check your CCTV live before calling the police, meaning faster response and no wasted call-outs from false alarms

🔊 Audio challenge — intruders can be warned off through on-site speakers in real time, often stopping a break-in before it even starts

🔥 Fire alarm monitoring — the fire service is alerted immediately if smoke or heat is detected, even when nobody's on site

🔗 Works with your existing systems — we integrate monitoring with your current CCTV, alarms, and access control, so there's no need to start from scratch

False alarms cost businesses time and money — and too many unverified calls can actually reduce the priority of your police response. Verified monitoring solves that problem completely.

ADP Security Systems has been protecting businesses across Hampshire, Surrey, and Sussex for nearly 30 years. We're SSAIB-certified and ISO 9001-accredited, so you can trust that your security is in expert hands.

Mental Health Awareness Week: Supporting the People Behind the Security 💙

This week is Mental Health Awareness Week (12–18 May), and we wanted to take a moment to talk about something close to our hearts — the wellbeing of the people who work tirelessly to keep others safe.

The security industry is built on dedication and resilience. But behind every patrol, every night shift, and every alarm response, there are real people — and they deserve to be supported just as much as the clients and communities they protect.

At ADP, many of our team work unsociable hours, often alone, in roles that demand constant vigilance. Early mornings, late nights, weekend shifts, and the responsibility of lone working can all weigh heavily over time. It’s something we think about a lot as a business.

As a family-run company, we’ve always taken a people-first approach 🤝 We believe that a team who feels supported, respected, and valued will always deliver a better standard of service. That’s not just good management — it’s the right thing to do.

We’re proud to foster an open, honest culture where our people feel comfortable speaking up about their mental health. Whether it’s a quiet check-in during a shift, a conversation over a cup of tea, or simply knowing that someone has your back — these things matter.

To our team, and to security professionals everywhere — thank you for the work you do. Your dedication doesn’t go unnoticed, and your wellbeing will always be a priority.

If you or someone you know is struggling, please don’t suffer in silence. Talk to someone you trust, or reach out to the Security Benevolent Fund for confidential support.

Let’s look after the people who look after us 💙

Our engineer Paul Kosinski is jumping out of a plane... again! ✈️💪

On 6th June, Paul is taking on a skydive for the MS Trust as part of their "Jump In June" campaign. Having completed the same challenge back in 2018, Paul has bravely decided to do it all over again to raise funds and awareness for a cause very close to his heart.

Paul was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2014. It has been a tough journey, but with the incredible support of his family, friends and the MS Trust, Paul continues to face every day with determination and positivity.
Now he wants to give something back ❤️

The MS Trust provides trusted information, compassionate support and funds vital research for everyone affected by MS. Paul's skydive is his way of saying thank you and helping to raise much-needed awareness.

We are so proud to have Paul as part of the ADP team, and we are right behind him on this one!
If you would like to support Paul, please donate via his JustGiving page 👇
Every little helps. Let's get behind him!

When you call ADP, you speak to a real person who knows your name. Not a call centre. Not a ticket number. A person who cares. 🤝

ADP Security Systems was founded by Alan Day back in 1996, and nearly 30 years later we are still a proud family-run business based in Petersfield, Hampshire.

What does that actually mean for our clients? It means:

👤 Direct access to directors — no corporate runaround
🔧 Engineers who know your site inside and out — because they have been looking after it for years
💬 Decisions made by people who genuinely care — not a distant head office following a script
🏢 Everything under one roof — CCTV, access control, intruder alarms, fire alarms, gates, manned guarding, mobile patrols, keyholding and remote monitoring

We hear the same thing from so many clients who come to us from larger national providers: they were tired of being treated like a number. Tired of waiting days for a callback. Tired of engineers who had never set foot on their site before.

At ADP, we do things differently. Our team members are long-serving, experienced, and dedicated. Many of our clients have been with us for over a decade — and that loyalty goes both ways.

We hold the same accreditations as the national companies — SSAIB certified, ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 accredited, SIA Approved Contractor, BSIA member — but we deliver it all with a personal touch that larger firms simply cannot match.

Nearly 30 years of family values and professional standards. That is the ADP difference. ❤️

Summer is coming — and so are the security risks that catch businesses off guard every year 🔒☀️

Here are 5 threats that spike during the warmer months:

1️⃣ Break-ins during lighter evenings — your premises look empty even when it's still bright outside. Opportunists know the difference.

2️⃣ Construction site theft — peak building season means high-value tools and materials left on open sites overnight.

3️⃣ Holiday absences — fewer staff means fewer eyes. Without a patrol or keyholding service, a triggered alarm could go unnoticed for hours.

4️⃣ Propped-open doors — warm weather means doors left open for ventilation, creating easy access for anyone walking past.

5️⃣ Event security demands — summer events need crowd management and access control. Leave it too late and qualified security staff are hard to find.

The good news? Every one of these risks has a solution — and at ADP Security, we provide them all under one roof.

CCTV. Access control. Intruder alarms. Fire alarms. Mobile patrols. Keyholding. Manned guarding. One trusted local partner for complete protection.
