Fire alarm, intruder alarm and CCTV monitoring — 24/7 monitoring through an ARC.
SPS Technical connects commercial alarm systems to an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) for 24/7 monitored response, with SPS Security providing keyholding and mobile response where contracted. Fault escalation and operational support across Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and the Humber, coordinated from our Hull head office.
Our Approach
Monitoring Backed by Group-Level Resilience
Alarm monitoring is only effective when the response behind it is genuine. SPS Technical connects your fire and intruder alarm systems to an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) for 24/7 monitored response. Where SPS Security keyholding or mobile response is part of your arrangement, the ARC coordinates directly with SPS Security's response officers — providing joined-up escalation through one group. Whether you need fire alarm monitoring to BS 5839, intruder alarm monitoring to satisfy insurers, keyholding and site attendance, or CCTV monitoring and video verification — SPS Technical manages the monitoring connection, system maintenance and operational response as a joined-up service.
Maintenance-First Approach
SPS Technical structures every installation and takeover around long-term maintenance. Systems are only as valuable as their uptime and compliance status — our engineers take ownership of both, backed by digital records and compliance certification.

24/7 Alarm Monitoring Through an ARC
Fire and intruder alarm monitoring routed through an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC). SPS Security provides keyholding and mobile response where contracted — all coordinated through one group.
Keyholding & Site Attendance
Secure key storage, rapid response site attendance, site familiarisation and coordinated emergency response — linked directly to SPS Security operational resource.
Escalation & Contact Management
Multi-level contact cascades, out-of-hours procedures, client communication protocols and real-time incident updates. We manage the process, not just the signal.
SPS Group Integrated Support
SPS Technical handles the systems. Alarm monitoring is provided through an ARC, with SPS Security providing keyholding, mobile response and guarding where contracted. Together, clients get joined-up security operations without managing multiple providers.
