]]>Today churches have to accommodate and adapt for a wide range of needs and requirements. The pulpit is only part of the story. Church services are becoming more than just one person standing at the front speaking and are utilising specialist church AV systems to inspire and attract a new generation.
Often open seven days a week, church buildings can be used for various activities attracting the local community. They are often used for more than just Sunday service and weddings, from choir practice to community meet ups. New and up-to-date AV systems and specialist church PA systems can help a church accommodate such activities and events more effectively.
A high-quality church AV system can improve the experiences of anyone using them, or attending the church service from the church leader, to the congregation and musicians performing. A clear sound and quality mixing of voices and instruments creates and environment that is more conductive to listening and singing.
With large congregations and events such as weddings, it can often be challenging to ensure everyone can hear the speaker or music. Reliable and well installed church AV systems can ensure that the people at the back of the room can hear the same as people sitting in the front row. Many churches also use multiple rooms especially on Sundays. By using a good quality AV system, the Sunday service can be streamed to all rooms within the building.
No two churches are the same and PA systems and AV systems can be tailored to the building décor and needs. They can be as simple and discreet as a few speakers and a microphone to an integrated system which also links up to lighting and even the security system.
Linking up integrated services within the church can help to make the AV systems efficient and simple to use. Services such as sound, visual, lighting and multi-room can all be linked and managed from the touch of a button. This can ensure that new technology is easy to use, and the user can get the benefits of a full integrated AV system without having to worry about too many buttons and having someone specialist to work it.

For the security conscious owners, CCTV systems are a popular choice and thanks to easy CCTV installation and falling prices, securing your home has never been simpler. CCTV can be an effective crime deterrent whether you’re using it in your home, business or retail environment.
Your CCTV or Smart CCTV system doesn’t have to stand out, but with criminals becoming more and more optimistic, a professionally installed CCTV system can provide the ultimate peace of mind for your home or business.
Some of the benefits to installing CCTV include:
A CCTV system can offer you peace of mind and help you to feel safe and secure. Knowing that the system has been installed by professional CCTV installers will go a long way to put your mind at ease about the safety of your family home or business.
Having a CCTV system can deter criminals from breaking into your home or committing other crimes such as vandalism or anti-social behaviour. Most criminals will pursue the easy option and target properties and buildings that are not protected by CCTV.
If a crime does occur within or outside your home, then prosecution have a greater chance of being successful if you have CCTV installed. Suspects can easily be identified, and CCTV footage is compelling evidence for courts.
With the latest technologies, modern CCTV systems now allow remote monitoring on a computer, tablet or even your mobile phone via a secure internet connection. They allow you to login from wherever you are in the world and check your CCTV cameras for activity and give you that peace of mind that your home or business premises are safe and secure.
Remote monitoring is particularly useful if you also have an intruder alarm installed. When your alarm is triggered this will send an alert to your mobile phone or tablet, if you are away from the property so that you can log in to view your camera footage to check if the incident is a false alarm or not.
Insurance companies will often reduce your premium if you have CCTV installed. It’s worth calling your insurer to find out if you can have a discount on your premium and save some money.

]]>Burglars and thieves are becoming more brazen and opportunistic, especially with all the extra technology that homes now carry, so making sure you have the right security system has never been more important. The ever advancing development of technology has changed the way people live their lives, and with this comes opportunities for increased security, protection and deterrents.
There are many types of security installation companies, from professional security businesses, to DIY security fitters and even companies that profess to be experts without true credentials.
We have put together some top tips on what to look for when selecting the right security installation company for your needs:
When choosing a local security company, make sure they have the necessary experience to carry out the job. Ask for references, testimonials or to showcase examples of similar security systems previously installed. Technology is constantly changing and utilising a professional security company with the appropriate team, experience and knowhow will help make sure your security system is installed and integrated efficiently and on budget.
Make sure you choose a professional and certified security company. The National Security Inspectorate (NSI) is the recognised leading UK certification body for the security and fire protection industries. If your alarm is installed by a NSI approved company, you will be issued with a Certificate of Compliance which can be presented to the insurer as required.
Have a good in depth discussion with your security expert about your requirements, concerns and potential future needs. The security company will likely want to visit the property to see exactly what you require and what is possible so they can quote appropriately. If you are getting more than one quote, make sure the different companies are quoting for the same work so you can evaluate appropriately. Ask for your quote in writing and where possible with a breakdown of the work being carried out. If the cost is too expensive speak to the company and see if there are alternative options.
Your insurance company may require you to have your security system / intruder alarm installed at your property. This will depend on the risk level of your property as well as the insurance company’s policy. When this is the case your insurer may also insist that it is installed and regularly maintained by a NSI NACOSS Gold or Systems Silver approved company.
When applying or renewing your home insurance or in the event of making a claim following a burglary, your insurer may ask for proof that your alarm has been installed in line with their requirements. You may also be entitled to receive an insurance discount if your alarm system meets your insurer’s requirements.
Talk to your security company to get an idea of timescales for carrying out the job and let them know if you have a date in mind for completing the project – communication is key and helps avoid any potential misunderstandings. If the company work to a ‘process’ or ‘project plan’ ask them to share it. If it’s a large or complex security installation or you’re working to tight timescales, it’s likely to be more efficient to work with a company that has multiple security electricians on hand to carry out the work quickly and efficiently.
First impressions count and it’s important that you feel comfortable and trust your local security company. Are they polite and professional on the phone, do they get back to you when they say they will, do they turn up on time?. These things may seem obvious but look out for the signs early on as it is a good indication to their professionalism and work ethos.
There are thousands of security systems available but your security company should be able to advise what the best solution is for your needs, these could include CCTV, intruder alarms, automated gates, access control, security lights and door phone systems.
Don’t be bamboozled by acronyms and technical jargon – if you don’t understand something about the security systems on offer, simply ask, a good professional security expert should be able to explain in layman’s terms and don’t feel pressurised in purchasing especially if you don’t understand what you are buying.
Many security systems need to be maintained and serviced. Ask what the options are from your security company, sometimes software updates, testing and support can be done remotely by connecting in externally so you don’t have to be put out. Also ask for support costs, call out fees, what guarantee the systems comes with and what the process is should the system fail, or if the power goes off. A good professional security company will be able to offer total peace of mind by providing support packages tailored to your needs.
