Best for: intruder alarms with long local service history

Active

Trading as HAWK SECURITY ALARMS LTD · Telford · Service area: Telford, Shropshire

Hawk Security Alarms in short

Hawk Security Alarms is a Telford installer of intruder alarms and CCTV claiming more than 38 years in the trade, with service contracts and round-the-clock call-out [1]. Our view is that Hawk Security Alarms is the pick for burglar alarms from a familiar local name rather than for fire work.

Customer reviews are spotless, with full marks on Google from 20 reviews — the headline figure on this review — and the company record runs to 2015 [4] [2].

What counts against it here is the absence of any fire-alarm offering, accreditations or published insurance detail, with industry qualifications unable to be sourced [1]. Quotations are free, with no rates or VAT position published, and a directory listing confirms the Telford base [1] [3].
