Police Response
Police services in the UK will only offer a response to verified alarm signals from a monitored alarm system which has been granted a Police URN (Unique Reference Number), the aim being to provide an effective response to genuine intruder alarms. Monitored systems can only be installed by certificated providers and must be subject to a maintenance agreement. Excess false alarms will jeopardise Police response. The Police will continue to respond to 999 calls as appropriate.
P & R Alarms Limited are certificated in accordance with the NPCC (National Police Chief Council) unified Policy, therefore they can obtain Police URN’s for the systems they install. The unified Policy is supported by insurers.
