How to hire a home security & cctv installation pro in Ireland

  1. Only use a PSA-licensed installer — Private Security Authority licensing is legally required for intruder alarm and CCTV installation companies in Ireland
  2. Ask for installation to EN 50131 / IS 199 standards if you want insurer recognition
  3. Get itemised quotes for equipment, labour, and monitoring
  4. Check GDPR obligations if cameras capture areas beyond your property
  5. Confirm annual maintenance cost for monitored alarms
  6. Ask about eircode-based response arrangements for monitored systems

Frequently asked questions

Do I need professional monitoring or is self-monitoring enough?

Self-monitoring via an app is free and fine for most households. Professional monitoring adds a monthly fee but gets a human response (and in some countries, faster police or armed-response dispatch) when you can't answer.

Will a security system lower my home insurance premium?

Often yes — many insurers discount 2-15% for professionally installed and monitored alarms, but they usually require an approved installer or certificate, so ask your insurer before booking.

How much does it cost to install a home security system?

A basic wired or wireless alarm typically costs a few hundred dollars installed, while a 4-camera CCTV setup with recorder usually lands in the mid hundreds to low thousands depending on cabling difficulty and camera quality.

How long does a security system installation take?

A wireless alarm takes 2-4 hours. A wired 4-camera CCTV system typically takes a full day; 8+ cameras or multi-storey cabling can run to two days.

What's included in a typical CCTV quote?

Cameras, a recorder (NVR/DVR) or cloud plan, cabling and clips, power supplies, mounting, app setup, and a walkthrough. Check whether the hard drive, warranty, and follow-up support visits are included.

Is PSA licensing really mandatory in Ireland?

Yes. Installer companies must hold a PSA licence for intruder alarms and CCTV, and hiring an unlicensed installer can expose you to problems with insurance claims. Check the licence on the PSA register.
