Farnborough homes and businesses: what we see most
Farnborough mixes busy family neighbourhoods with one of the region’s biggest business and aviation hubs, and each needs a different approach.
Family homes in Cove, West Heath, Cherrywood and Hawley
Mostly post-war and later semis and detached houses, many with side access and garages. A wired or hybrid intruder alarm with pet-friendly sensors, plus a camera covering the driveway and side gate, protects the places most break-ins start.
Burglar alarms →Larger detached homes, including around Farnborough Park
More ground to cover, and often gated. We combine monitored alarms, CCTV covering the drive and grounds, and Gate Safe certified electric gates so you can see and control who comes onto the property.
Electric gates →Newer-build homes
Often handed over with a basic alarm, or none at all. We fit a proper system with app control and a smart doorbell, designed around how you live.
New homeowners guide →Offices, labs and units on the business parks
From Farnborough Business Park to smaller trade units, businesses need Paxton access control (add or cancel staff fobs in seconds), monitored intruder alarms and Axis CCTV covering entrances, yards and car parks.
Access control →What we install across Farnborough
Business security
Business security is where Farnborough differs most. Offices, labs and trade units usually need several things working together: a monitored intruder alarm, Paxton access control so staff only get into the areas they need, and CCTV watching loading bays and car parks after hours.
CCTV →Family homes
The usual starting point is an intruder alarm you can set from your phone, then a camera over the driveway once you’ve seen how useful the app is.
Burglar alarms →Gated and larger properties
Electric gates fitted to Gate Safe standards, linked to an intercom so you can let visitors in without walking down the drive.
Electric gates →Police-monitored alarms and burglary in Farnborough
Farnborough is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary. To get a police response, an alarm has to be installed and maintained by a company certified by a recognised inspectorate such as SSAIB, which we are, and registered with the force for a Unique Reference Number (URN).
We arrange this for you and connect your system to Southern Monitoring Services with BT Redcare signalling, so any activation is verified and acted on 24 hours a day. For businesses, this is often a requirement of their insurer.
Burglary in Farnborough
Police.uk recorded at least 55 burglaries within a mile of Farnborough town centre between August 2025 and July 2026, roughly one a week (source: police.uk).

Farnborough security FAQs
Can you secure a small office or unit on a business park?
Yes. We regularly fit monitored intruder alarms, access control and CCTV for offices, workshops and units. Access control means no more cutting keys when staff change: just add or remove a fob. See access control.
You’re in Mytchett. Does that make a difference for Farnborough?
It does. We’re just across the Blackwater Valley, so if an alarm needs attention we’re usually only minutes away, not an hour’s drive. For businesses that can’t be left unsecured, that matters.
My insurer says our business alarm must be monitored. Can you do that?
Yes. Many commercial policies require a professionally monitored alarm, sometimes with police response. We install and certify systems to the standard insurers ask for and connect them to 24-hour monitoring.
Will Hampshire police respond to my alarm?
A police response needs a monitored alarm, installed and maintained by an accredited company and registered with Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary for a URN. We’ll talk you through the options when we give you your free quote.

Highly Recommended – Prompt, Professional and a Trusted Local Business.
We have been a customer of Thames Valley Securitek for 15 years when they initially installed our alarm system. We have recently upgraded our system and the team advised on how best to do this utilising as much of the existing structure as possible to save costs. They provided a competitive quote and carried out the work promptly, without any fuss and with professionalism. They are quick to respond to any queries and I would highly recommended their services. It’s great to be able to use and support a local business.

Intruder Alarm Installation
We were recommended TVS by a friend who had recently had a new alarm fitted. We wanted a company who would work with us and our builders during a refurb. TVS were great, they liaised with the builder throughout and fitted our alarm how we wanted it to be fitted so it blended in with our new improvements. To be able to pick up the phone and talk to an engineer within minutes was a very valuable Service they provided for us and our builder. I would highly recommend them to anyone. They were professional throughout and a pleasure to have in our home.
