Upgrade what you have, or start from scratch
We work exclusively with private homes in the province of Malaga. In both cases the goal is the same: a system that is still switched on five years from now.
Line A
Upgrading existing systems
With AI, LiDAR and radar. You don't have to replace everything — you have to find out what's missing.
What we almost always find
- The router isn't on the UPS, only the recorder. In a power cut the system records but doesn't alert.
- There is no heartbeat check. If the internet drops, the owner never finds out. Silence isn't safety.
- The microphone is enabled by default on the cameras. An unnecessary legal risk.
- The field of view covers a neighbour's property or the public road. The number one cause of complaints and disputes.
- The system is switched off because of false alarms.
- There is no water leak protection at all.
- Retention is set to 90 days. The legal maximum in Spain is one month.
What we do
- Full technical inspection with a photographic report
- Reuse of cameras and cabling that are in good condition
- AI recorder, or an analysis unit that adds person, vehicle and animal recognition to existing cameras
- A new perimeter layer: radar, LiDAR or beam, depending on the terrain
- Image verification on every alert
- Corrected mounting heights and angles, tuned to your dog
- Backup power across the whole chain and a second communication path
- Retention set correctly, audio disabled, coverage plan documented
We always start with an inspection. Fixed price, half a day, photographic report. If the system is fine, we'll tell you that too.
Line B
New system installation
A complete project, with the technology chosen for the terrain rather than for the catalogue.
Early detection
Radar for open ground, LiDAR for one specific critical plane — the glazed frontage, the cellar, the top of a wall — beams or curtains for fence runs, thermal for long sight lines.
AI cameras
Person, vehicle and animal classification. The alert only goes out when both layers agree: that is what eliminates false alarms.
Gate and driveway
Vehicle detection on the drive, video entry, and scheduled credentials for the gardener, the pool service or the cleaner. Nobody needs a key.
Automatic shut-off
Leak detection with mains valve closure. It can be linked to arming the alarm: when you leave, the house shuts the water off by itself.
Power and internet
UPS across the whole chain, a second communication path independent of the router, and an hourly heartbeat so an outage becomes an alert rather than silence.
The right materials
On the front line, marine-grade stainless steel on brackets, fixings and cable glands — not just on the camera. Plus sun shields and orientation designed for a Malaga summer.
Maintenance
What keeps the system alive
Installation is the one-off part. On this coast, salt air and heat work against the equipment every single day.
| Service | What it includes |
|---|---|
| Heartbeat | Hourly confirmation that the system is alive; alert to the owner if it stops responding. |
| Technical status | Cameras, disk, actual recording coverage, firmware version, UPS battery. |
| Home telemetry | Water, frost, humidity, power cuts, pool pump. |
| Coastal inspection | Inspection and cleaning of brackets, fixings and seals on properties near the sea. |
| Service access | Issuing and revoking credentials for gardener, pool or cleaning staff. |
| Reporting | Periodic report in English or Spanish, with photographs. |
Maintenance is optional and involves no lock-in period. It is not an alarm receiving centre service.
The visit first, the quote after
We don't give prices over the phone without seeing the property — that would be making them up.
