I was recommended Homeland Security by a friend through a local business network. I am really happy with the product and customer service. Gary came round to do a survey on the same day I enquired, and quickly followed up with a report and recommendations. The team came within the week to fit the alarm for our house and adjoining garage. The alarm has been great since then and I really enjoy being able to arm and disarm it remotely from my phone.

Gary provided excellent services :
Serviced the home alarm and upgraded the system i.e. additional door sensors and multifunction activation fob. Showed me how to use the alarm for different situations.
Installed a CCTV system that covered my property to my satisfaction.
Replaced the locks (front, back and conservatory doors) with more secure hardware.
Plus left no mess, and surveyed the property before providing a quote.

Homeland Security was recommended to me by a friend who had previously used them to install alarm systems.
Gary visited within a couple of days of initial contact to do a site survey. He was happy to answer all my questions, and after the visit, he sent over a comprehensive recommendation list of works that could be carried out, including a detailed breakdown of costs.
Once I had confirmed which options I wanted, Gary returned within two weeks to carry out the installation.
The installation was completed without issue. He tidied and hoovered up afterwards, leaving no mess behind. Gary went through setting up the app for remotely controlling the system, tested the alarm, and answered my questions.
Overall, I'm very happy with the alarm system and the work carried out. Friendly and professional service throughout.

Gary was really knowledgeable and explained the different options alongside his recommendations. He worked well and was neat in his work and tidied up afterwards. He took the time to explain how the system worked. I would definitely recommend Homeland Security.

I'd gladly recommend Gary from Homeland Security. He recently replaced a broken alarm system for my business premises in Leith, the job was completed very quickly and at a fair price.

Gary has advised on security systems and installed alarms in two of my properties now. I wouldn't use anyone else!

We had a new alarm installed after our old one stopped working. Great communication, clear pricing, and was able to install quickly following initial call and visit. Everything was explained clearly and work was done professionally with minimum fuss.

I can't fault Gary's work - it was excellent. He gave suitable advice for our situation when quoting, and was also patient and polite dealing with all my questions. He was thorough with his installation, ensuring that everything I had requested was covered, and also making sure that we understood how the new system worked - not just verbally explaining and then leaving, but going through the motions and then asking us to do the same.
I had to contact him the next day to sort out a technical problem (on my part, nothing to do with him) and he was prompt in replying and talked me through troubleshooting over the phone.
I have already recommended him to a friend.

Homeland Security (Gary)came to us as a recommendation from a trusted friend and proved to provide very professional, courteous and tidy workmanship.
Initial request was for a wired alarm but due to property construction it became unfeasable and highly satisfactory wireless system was installed.
Thus far we are very happy with the system, its simplicity of use, the coverage and aesthetics.
We are very happy to recommend Homeland Security to friends, family or others requiring a quality, efficient service at a competitive rate.
Thank you.

We had cctv and window locks installed from this company. Gary was a pleasure to deal with and always arrived on time for the scheduled appointment, was very professional and made sure we had the correct system that was right for us. He also helped with some window locking issues we had and left everything very clean and tidy after the job. Highly recommended!

Gary came round within a few days of us contacting him and gave us really useful advice on our security system. He didn't try and upsell us additional expensive items, he gave us options and discussed the pros and cons of the equipment we had considered.

Gary from Homeland Security came to our house and did a thorough inspection before recommending our new wireless alarm system. He patiently talked through all the options and recommended a system that was based exactly on our needs and taking into account that we wished to make the house secure and alarmed on those occasions when only our dog was at home. His quote was very competitive too. The installation was promptly and efficiently done with minimal disruption and the after care was second to none. Highly recommended .

Gary of Homeland Security installed an intruder alarm and motion-sensored cameras in my pad in 2020 following a very comprehensive security survey. He has been undertaking the alarm maintenance for me since. As Gary has done such a fantastic job, when we needed to increase the security for my parents’ house, we did not hesitate to consult with Gary. He attended promptly for the initial survey. When we needed further clarification about the proposal on the wired CCTV system and how the wiring would look, he was very patient in answering each question including coming back to explain in person for the benefit of my elderly parents. The installation (wired CCTV system, doorbell camera, and a security light in the garden) was done with great care (in freezing November weather) and exactly as described in the quote. Gary and his team are polite, very tidy (including cleaning up afterwards), and highly professional. The qualities of installations are outstanding! I wholeheartedly recommend Gary and Homeland Security.
