Theft & Trespassing Protection

Shielding spaces of worship from crime

One of the most common threats is the theft of lead, copper, and zinc from church roofs, which not only has financial consequences but can also lead to serious structural damage from rain and weather exposure. To combat this, we offer a bespoke roof alarm system that combines intruder alarm technology with video verification CCTV, providing real-time alerts and visual confirmation of any suspicious activity.

Additionally, our access control solutions help manage entry points, ensuring only authorised personnel can access certain areas, while CCTV surveillance offers continuous monitoring to safeguard valuable artefacts, donations, and religious relics. These discreet yet effective measures allow religious institutions to maintain security without compromising the peaceful and welcoming nature of their space.


Client reviews

Brilliant company with great service from the initial phone call to fitting and installing the alarm. With the alarm being slightly outdated in our property, they quickly resolved this within 24 hours to ensure it was up and installed in full working order. Everyone we spoke to from the ladies in the office to the gentleman who fitted the alarms were brilliant

As an existing customer of ADB Alarms, I recently encountered an issue with my system, and I must say, their service exceeded my expectations. The team responded incredibly fast and resolved the problem with expertise and professionalism. They were not only efficient but also very helpful in explaining what went wrong and how they fixed it. It’s comforting to know I’m in such capable hands. ADB Alarms continues to impress me with their outstanding customer support!

I am the third member of my family to use ADB after they came highly recommended by a family friend. I have recommended ADB myself multiple times. I will continue to do so, as I cant fault their service or professionalism. Real customer centred service and great after care service.

Frequently asked questions

01What is the best way to secure a place of worship while keeping it welcoming to visitors?

Balancing security with accessibility is key. Access control systems allow religious staff and key volunteers to secure certain areas while keeping public spaces open. Video intercoms and timed locking mechanisms ensure that buildings can remain accessible at appropriate times without compromising security.

02Can CCTV be installed discreetly in historic or listed religious buildings?

Yes, we offer heritage-sensitive CCTV installations designed to blend into the architecture of historic churches, mosques, temples, and synagogues. These systems provide discreet but effective surveillance, ensuring the safety of visitors and staff while preserving the aesthetic and historical value of the building.

03Can a security system help protect outdoor spaces, graveyards, and car parks?

Yes, outdoor security solutions such as perimeter alarms, motion-sensing floodlights, and CCTV with night vision help deter trespassing, vandalism, and theft in churchyards, cemeteries, and parking areas. These measures also enhance the safety of visitors and staff, particularly after dark.
