Sarum Systems fits Ajax wireless intruder alarms across Basildon, installed to BS EN 50131 and controlled from an app on your phone. We work on everything from the older terraces in Vange and Lee Chapel to brand new homes in Laindon and Langdon Hills, plus commercial units on the town's industrial estates. If you have inherited a system from another installer, we can take it over or replace it. We cover the town from our base in Harlow, the survey is free, and you deal directly with the engineer.

Burglary risk in Basildon follows the building, and the town has a wide spread of them. The post-war neighbourhoods in Pitsea, Vange and Lee Chapel North and South are largely terraces and low-rise flats, with rear gardens backing onto footpaths and garage blocks, so back doors and patio doors take most of the attention. The new estates read differently. At Ghyllgrove Place off Ghyllgrove Close, the detached and semi-detached homes have side access and garages, while the four detached homes at Northlands Approach off Dry Street in Langdon Hills sit on bigger plots with private drives. In the town centre, Chapelgate has brought 105 new homes onto a former car park. On the commercial side, units around Burnt Mills and Cranes Farm Road often share a yard and gate with neighbouring businesses, which changes how an alarm has to be zoned and who holds the codes. External fittings have to respect local rules, and we always work to the guidance published by Basildon Council.
Ajax is wireless, and that matters on a new build. There is no chasing cable into fresh plaster, no damage to decoration and nothing for the builder's snagging list, and the hub sits quietly in a cupboard. We fit contacts on the front, back and internal garage doors, pet-tolerant motion detection where you have a dog or cat, and a siren where it can be seen from the road. Everything arms and disarms from the Ajax app, so you can check the system from work or set it remotely if you forgot on the way out. On older Basildon terraces we often find a hardwired panel nobody has serviced in years. We can test it, take it over, or swap it to Ajax and keep any detector positions that make sense.
Basildon has new homes going up right across the borough, from Langdon Hills and Laindon to Burnt Mills and the town centre itself. Plenty of new homes are handed over with no alarm, or a bell box with nothing behind it. We fit Ajax wireless, so nothing gets chased into new plaster and it all runs from your phone.
