We provide bespoke, high-performance security for businesses across the Central Belt. Whether you’re managing a warehouse in Grangemouth or a retail unit in Glasgow, our Commercial Intruder Alarms Scotland keep your assets safe and your insurance valid.

The Problem: Why "Basic" Security Isn't Enough

A basic system might be suitable for homes – but commercial premises face very different risks.

Retails units, warehouses and offices often have multiple access points, higher-value stock and equipment, sensitive data and staff coming and going at different times. A standard, off the shelf intruder alarm system simply isn’t designed to handle that level of complexity.

Basic alarm systems often offer limited coverage, minimal zoning options, and no integration with other systems. This can lead to blind spots frequent false alarms and slow response times, leaving your premises vulnerable.

Commercial properties need intruder alarm systems that are professionally designed, scalable, and tailored to the specific risks of the site – because anything less simply isn’t enough.

The Solution: Professional Protection & Compliance

At RACAM, we design and install robust security systems tailored to your specific site. We don’t do guesswork.

Our installations strictly adhere to PD 6662, the UK’s composite standard for intruder alarm systems, ensuring your setup meets all police and insurance requirements.

We also ensure compliance with BS 8243, which governs how your system handles confirmed alarms to reduce false call-outs. By using graded components and NSI-approved installation methods, we provide a deterrent that isn’t just for show.

From Grade 2 systems for small shops to Grade 3 and 4 high-security setups for bonded warehouses, we’ve got the Central Belt covered.

Customer Success Story

An engineering firm in Motherwell was suffering from frequent false alarms that led to police response being withdrawn.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, please GET IN TOUCH

Is a DIY alarm enough for my business?

No.

Commercial insurers will insist on a system installed by an NSI or SSAIB accredited company to meet PD 6662 standards. A DIY kit likely won’t get you a payout if you’re burgled.

The best system depends on your premises size, layout, risk level and whether you need professional monitoring or remote access via a smartphone app. We provide free site surveys to recommend the most suitable solution.

Yes, we handle the whole process including installation, setup and provide ongoing maintenance and support packages tailored to commercial premises.

For a monitored system, you need two professional checks a year to stay compliant.  Audible-only systems only need to be serviced one a year.

Yes, we can service, maintain and upgrade systems installed by other companies, ensuring they remain fully operational and compliant with current standards.

Yes.

We specialise in smart systems that allow you to arm, disarm, and receive push notifications directly to your smartphone or tablet.

Yes, wireless systems use encrypted signals and are designed to be just as reliable as wired systems. They’re quick to install and ideal for buildings where running cables is not practical or possible.

Cost varies based on the “Grade” of the system. A Grade 3 system for a jewellery shop requires more sophisticated anti-masking sensors than a Grade 2 system for a standard office.
