Stop False Alarms. Protect Your Reputation. Quiet the Neighbourhood.
When a property sits vacant, an unmaintained alarm system becomes a liability rather than an asset. Aging backup batteries often fail, causing sirens to trigger at all hours—leading to noise complaints, council fines, and strained relations with neighbors.
At VPI, we provide a specialist “Alarm Silence” service for solicitors, executors, and landlords.
Our Vacant Property Alarm Services:
Emergency Disconnection: If an alarm is currently sounding at a vacant site, we provide 24/7 rapid response to safely bypass and silence the system.
System Decommissioning: For long-term vacant sites, we can professionally decommission the alarm and internal sounders to prevent future “phantom” triggers.
Battery Replacements: If you wish to keep the system active, we can test and replace failing backup batteries to ensure the alarm only sounds when it’s supposed to.
SIA Licensed Response: Instead of the alarm waking the neighbors, our 24/7 monitoring team can be the first point of contact, attending the site to investigate the cause.
Why This is Essential for Probate & Void Properties:
Noise Abatement Notices: Avoid legal action from local councils due to persistent noise nuisance.
Neighbor Relations: Ensure the property remains a “good neighbor” while it’s on the market or in probate.
Preventing “Alarm Fatigue”: If an alarm goes off every night for a week, neighbors will eventually ignore a real break-in.
Insurance Compliance: We ensure the property remains secure even after the system is silenced.
“We don’t just stop the noise; we secure the site.”
