Smart Security, Explained Plainly
Modern security systems do far more than make a noise. Here’s what the kit we install actually does for you.
Alarms that live on your phone
Ajax wireless alarms talk to the control panel over a secure, encrypted radio link, so there’s no drilling cable runs through every room. Detectors run for years on their batteries, and you arm, disarm and check the system from the app. If something triggers, you get an alert on your phone within seconds, wherever you are. Pet-friendly detectors are available, so the dog doesn’t set it off.
Cameras that see clearly at night
Many of the Hikvision cameras we fit use ColorVu technology, which records in full colour after dark instead of grainy black and white. Smart detection can tell a person or a car from a swaying branch or a passing cat, so you get alerts that matter rather than dozens that don’t.
Everything in one place
Live and recorded footage, alarm status and door or gate access, all from your phone. Before we leave, we set up the apps with you and make sure you’re comfortable using them.
Security for Shops, Restaurants, Offices and Industrial Units
A business needs more than a camera on the front door. Shops want clear coverage of tills and stockrooms. Restaurants need eyes on the back door and bin store after closing. Offices need to know who’s coming in and when, and factories and industrial units need yards, vehicles and perimeters covered day and night.
We survey the premises, work out where the risks really are, and design a system around them: cameras placed where incidents actually happen, recording that’s easy to search, and door or gate access that lets staff and deliveries in without handing out keys. Systems are built on professional-grade Hikvision equipment and set up so you can check the site from your phone.

CCTV and Alarm Installers for Surrey, Kent and South London
Total Home Security installs CCTV, alarms, door and gate access and video doorbells for homes and businesses across Surrey, Kent and South London. We cover Caterham, Warlingham, Woldingham, Oxted and Westerham, through Reigate and Sevenoaks, and up to Coulsdon, Croydon and Bromley.
Security has changed a lot in the last few years. The old model was a bell box on the wall and a panel by the front door that nobody really understood. Today’s systems are smarter, neater and far easier to live with. Wireless alarms go in without lifting floorboards. Cameras record in colour at night and send you a clip when someone walks up the drive. Door and gate access means a delivery driver or a cleaner can be let in from your phone, and video doorbells let you answer the door when you’re nowhere near it.
That choice is a good thing, but it can also be confusing. That’s why we start every job with a free survey rather than a fixed package. We look at how the property is laid out, where the weak points really are, and how you use the space day to day. Then we recommend what will make a genuine difference, and tell you plainly where something simpler will do.
For businesses, the same approach applies at a larger scale: cameras where incidents happen, recording that’s easy to search, and access control that suits how your staff and deliveries actually come and go.
Every installation comes with a 1-year warranty, with extended cover available if you’d like it. Gareth is DBS checked, and you’ll deal with the same local team from survey to sign-off.

Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on the size of the property, how many cameras or detectors you need, wired or wireless, how footage is stored, and whether you'd like door or gate access added. We don't quote blind: we survey the property for free, then give you a clear written quote with no obligation.
For most homes, a wireless system such as Ajax is the better fit. There's no chasing cables into walls, installation is quicker and cleaner, and the signal between devices is encrypted. Wired systems can still make sense in new builds or during a renovation, when cables can be run before the walls are finished. We'll recommend whichever suits your property.
Yes. Every CCTV system we install can be viewed live and played back from your phone, tablet or computer. We set up the app with you before we leave.
Yes. Many of the Hikvision cameras we fit use ColorVu technology to record in full colour after dark, and others use infrared night vision. We'll explain which suits each position during the survey.
Standard home cameras don't usually need planning permission, although listed buildings and some conservation areas can be different. If a camera captures anything beyond your own boundary, such as the street or a neighbour's garden, data protection rules apply. We position cameras to cover your property and keep that intrusion to a minimum.
