Professional Installation for Maximum Protection

A professional setup helps your Ajax system perform as intended. We assess entry points and internal movement paths, complete a wireless signal survey, and position the hub, keypads, detectors, and sirens for effective detection with minimal false activations. Devices are paired and calibrated, zones and user permissions are configured, and communication paths are set up for resilient signalling. The result is a tuned system with clear notifications, sensible arming modes, and integration options for monitoring and compatible smart devices.

Your installation includes consultation to understand how you use the space, careful placement for line‑of‑sight and environmental considerations, and verification that Jeweller radio links and tamper protections are operating correctly. We update firmware where needed, document device locations, demonstrate the Ajax app, and provide guidance on arming, alerts, and day‑to‑day use so you can manage your security with confidence.

Ramp up your security.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need professional installation for an Ajax alarm?

Ajax supports DIY, but professional installation validates detector placement, radio performance, and configuration. This helps reduce false activations, improves coverage, and ensures the system is commissioned to the manufacturer’s guidelines.

How long does Ajax alarm installation take?

Timeframes vary with property size, construction materials, and device count. The process typically includes surveying, mounting, pairing, configuring zones and users, testing, and a handover with training.

Can I install Ajax myself and add professional monitoring later?

You can self‑install and request monitoring later. Monitoring providers may ask for confirmation that the system is correctly configured and tested. A professionally commissioned setup helps streamline that process.

Will I receive training on the Ajax app and system use?

Yes. After commissioning, we walk you through arming modes, notifications, user management, and basic troubleshooting, and provide documentation so you can reference settings and device locations.

What if some devices show weak signal or interference?

We check signal strength during installation and adjust placement as needed. Options include relocating the hub or detectors, refining antenna orientation, or adding approved range‑extension devices to maintain stable communication.
