Orrell sits on the west side of Wigan, a short drive from the town centre, with the M6 and M58 on its doorstep. We look after alarms and cameras in homes right across the area, from Orrell Post and Lamberhead Green to Kitt Green and Highfield.
Plenty of the systems we see here were fitted years ago by companies that have since gone. Dean will service, repair or reset almost any make, and tell you honestly when an upgrade makes more sense than another repair.

Older systems, brought back to life
Orrell has a lot of settled, family homes, many with alarms that were fitted when the house was built or bought and have not been looked at since. The backup battery in a panel and bell box only lasts a few years, so an old system that has never been serviced is often one bad night away from a false alarm.
A service checks everything, replaces what is worn and comes with 12 months’ free call-out cover for faults. If the alarm turns out to be past saving, Dean can often keep the existing wiring and sensors and simply replace the panel and keypad, which keeps the cost down.

Orrell questions
All questionsMy alarm was fitted by a company that has closed. Can you take it over?
In most cases, yes. We can service it, set new codes and repair faults. If the panel is locked by its original installer, we will explain the options, which may mean replacing the panel while keeping the existing sensors and cables.
Do you give free quotes?
Yes. Quotations are free and there is no obligation. For a new alarm or CCTV system, Dean will usually come and look at the property first, so the price is based on your actual home and not a guess.
What is the 12 months’ call-out cover?
Every service comes with 12 months’ free call-out cover for faults. If your alarm develops a fault in the year after we service it, we come out without a call-out charge. Parts are not included, and we will always tell you what a part costs before fitting it.
Why does my house alarm keep going off for no reason?
The usual causes are a flat or failing backup battery, a sensor that is dusty, faulty or picking up pets, spiders or a heater, a door or window contact that has worked loose, or damp getting into the bell box. A tamper fault can also set it off. We test each part of the system to find the real cause, rather than just resetting it.
