Your local Farnham security installer
Farnham is around 20 minutes from our base in Mytchett. Our SSAIB-accredited engineers have spent over 20 years fitting alarms, cameras and access control in and around the town, from the Georgian streets in the centre to Wrecclesham, Rowledge and Badshot Lea.
Farnham’s mix of historic buildings and newer developments means one approach doesn’t fit all. We plan each system around the building, so it protects the property without spoiling it.
Farnham homes and businesses: what we see most
Georgian and period homes in the town centre
Around Castle Street and West Street, many homes are old and some are listed. Wireless alarms avoid cabling through historic fabric, and we think carefully about where anything visible goes.
Wireless alarms →New-build developments
Newer homes on the edges of town often come without an alarm. We’ll design one around your household, with app control and a video doorbell if you’d like one.
New homeowners guide →Village homes in Wrecclesham, Rowledge and Tilford
Larger plots, outbuildings and quieter lanes. Cameras on the drive and outbuildings, and electric gates where there’s a long driveway.
Electric gates →Shops and offices in the town centre
Independent shops and offices need a commercial intruder alarm, CCTV covering doors and tills, and access control for staff.
CCTV →Security for listed and period homes in Farnham
Farnham is known for its Georgian buildings, and much of the town centre is a conservation area. Fitting security to an older building takes a bit more thought:
Inside, wireless sensors and keypads avoid chasing cables into old plaster. Outside, a bell box and cameras should be placed so they work without spoiling the front of the building.
If your home is listed
Check with Waverley Borough Council before anything is fixed to the outside of a listed building. We’re happy to talk through the options so you know what you’re asking for.

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.
