Midland Alarm - East

16/10/2026

Hi Houlton

We've had lots of calls from the estate recently about bell boxes and batteries playing up. Most alarms here were fitted by electricians when the houses were built, and haven't been serviced since.

We're Midland Alarm Services East, a local, family-run company with almost 40 years in home security. We've put together a special Houlton offer to get your system back on track:

🔋 Service + battery change: £160 inc. VAT (usually £208)
🔔 Service + battery + new bell box: £250 inc. VAT (usually £335).
Your system will look brand new too!

The offer ends 20th December, so book now while appointments last.

📞 Call us on 01788 708035

We're always happy to have a chat if you're not sure what you need. See less

When was your burglar alarm last serviced?

It's easy to set and unset your alarm each day without giving its upkeep much thought. An annual service is a good chance to check everything's working as it should, and to ask any questions about using your system.

Our own experienced engineers carry out alarm servicing every week, helping customers look after their home security.

If you're unsure when yours is due, give us a ring. We'll help you check and arrange a service if it's time.

Is your old alarm system giving you a false sense of security?❌

If your alarm system looks like it belongs in another decade, it may be time to think about an upgrade.

Modern smart alarm systems can give you much more than a loud siren. With features such as perimeter protection, smartphone alerts and image verification, you can have greater control over your home security, even when you’re away. 🔐📱

We can assess your existing system and help you find a security solution that suits your home and your needs.

📍 Covering Rugby, Leicester, Lutterworth and Northampton.

💬 Be honest…how old is your current alarm system?

Before fitting an alarm recently, we chatted to our customer about what happens if it's triggered while they're away.

They liked that a monitored burglar alarm sends an alert to their phone through the SecureComm app. They can check which sensor was triggered, see whether the alarm is set and decide what to do next.

They also chose a video doorbell for extra coverage at the front of the house. It gives them a clearer view of visitors, deliveries and activity around the entrance.

Moved into a new-build? Congratulations! Now, is it protected?

Many new homes come without a burglar alarm, or with a basic system and no proper handover.

We can fit a modern wireless alarm that suits your new home, and show you exactly how it works. You own the kit, and a monthly subscription is optional.

Covering new-build estates across Rugby, Leicester, Lutterworth and Northampton.

If someone came to your front door tonight, could your camera show their face clearly?

Too much CCTV only captures the top of a head, or a blurry figure at the edge of the picture. Where a camera goes matters as much as the camera itself.

3 things to check:
1. Height: out of reach, but low enough to see faces
2. Entry points: front door, side gate and back door all covered
3. Night view: clear footage after dark, not only in daylight

We design and install CCTV across Rugby, Leicester, Lutterworth and Northampton.

How much does a burglar alarm cost?

It's a fair question. You want an idea of the cost before deciding what's right for your home.
We've had a few calls from homeowners asking just that recently. The price depends on what needs protecting, how many sensors you need and whether you'd like app control or monitoring.

You can view our packages on our website. We can also visit, have a chat about what you actually need to give your home better security and give you a clear quote, with no pressure to decide there and then.

Our guide, 'How Much Does a Burglar Alarm Cost in 2026?', is a useful place to start. Or give us a ring to arrange a free, no-obligation quote.

She heard someone trying her door handle. She was home alone with her young son.

That was the moment a recent customer of ours decided enough was enough.

A visible bell box and a loud alarm tell anyone testing your door that your home isn't an easy target. Often that's enough to make them think twice.

If something like this has happened to you, or you'd like to sleep easier, we'd love to help.

We install burglar alarms across Rugby, Leicester, Lutterworth and Northampton.

This week we've been fitting a home security system for a family in Rugby: a wireless alarm, an external bell box and a video doorbell.

They wanted everything sorted in one go, with one team to call on. As a family-run business, that's how we like to work. We help you choose what suits your home and show you how to use it.

The installation was finished in a day, and we talked the family through the system before we left. Knowing how it all works is just as important as having it fitted.
