As an NSI Gold company we have been using Security Warehouse as our main supplier for CCTV, Intruder and Fire equipment since they started in 2005. We have found them to have very keen prices, and alw... See more

ABSOLUTELY SHOCKING! Trustpilot needs to start creating a no star section for companies like this, because giving them one star is misleading. I give myself no stars for even ordering from this... See more

From initial contact through to delivery the process was seamless and about as smooth as it gets. Prices are on point and stock is always on the shelf meaning less downtime = more £ in the bank.... See more

Slow Customer Service

Bought an an Alarm Kit from Security Warehouse. Had no updates regarding delivery. Tried calling them (premium rate number) only to get a messsage to email or use chat.
Got an update finally 8 days after placing order... No Stock! Asking questions via email took a few hours to 1 day for a response. Requested refund which was returned nearly 2 weeks after placing order.

Loose the Premium Rate Number which is useless for support, and maybe allow customers to talk directly to staff for updates, instead of taking hours/days for a response.

Ended up using another local company City Security Systems. No problems

Expensive and slow shipping

£4.50 delivery charge for a serial cable they could have posted in a Jiffy bag - and it took a week to arrive. Highly dissatisfied.

Dear Alan,
I am sorry you have been dissatisfied with your order with us, I would need further details to be able to look into why you recieved a delay in receiving your goods, please send details to info@Securitywarehouse.co.uk. However all orders are shipped by our courier as we require a signature on delivery. This is a security measure for ourselves and our customers, and I am sorry you are not happy with this.
Regards

Bought a Texecom system and really pleased with the service from initial order.
Communicated well, arrived quickly and even when I had to exchange one of the PIRs it was turned around in 24hrs.
Didn't have to call them as they have a great online communication method where one of their team (Amy in my case) took ownership and made sure my questions were answered quickly and to my satisfaction.
Would use again with question.

Absolutely first rate after-sales customer service. I had a warranty failure, and the way it was dealt with was excellent - their communication all the way through was faultless, and they swiftly arranged a swap. They even phoned me when the replacement was going to be delayed by 24 hours to let me know, and to check whether the following day would be a problem, or if I needed to change where the swap was going to be done. Can't praise them highly enough - and the prices I had paid were also extremely competitive. I will return to this shop without hesitation.

Just contacted security warehouse to chase an order I placed on 11th December to be told it hasn't even been posted ,this review was done on 18th December this is a company who say orders are posted within 1-3 days ,I cancelled the order .

Good company to order from I don't think so

Good prices, prompt delivery, great service

Bought a system which was customised and delivered as promised. I then managed to forgot the password which caused various issues, but I received very prompt and helpful directions (and a lot of patience)throughout the process of sorting out the problem.

Satisfied....

Satisfied....

Based on the reviews here, I was a little nervous when placing my order however, as their price on an alarm keypad was the cheapest around, I thought I'd give them a go.

Unfortunately, as this was my first order with them, I couldn't have a different delivery address to the billing address which is what I had done when placing the order. Within an hour of ordering, I was informed of the issue via emqil. Having used their live chat, the issue was resolved within a few minutes and was back on track.

The update system on their site was informative throughout with order updates.
I selected a 1 hour time slot delivery. Item arrived within 2 days of placing my order.
Please with the item, pleased with the service. What more can I ask for.

No Support or advice!!

Asked what sounders they had in stock for via the chat and hit the wall of ask on the forum !! So you can not ask about any thing they sell you have to ask the forum. So will take the custom to another company.

Good prices, support worse

Good prices, fast delivery. However when it came to the situation I needed some technical advice about the purchased product then I hit the wall! When I called their number and choose technical support I had been told by machine to go to the website. So I did. I wrote short description in enquiries and next day I had the answer that if I need any technical advice I should contact product manufacturer. Guess if the manufacturer's number was in the message or I had to look for it myself....
Not a total fail but with little effort they could do much better...

Security Warehouse

Have found Security Warehouse to be very helpful, getting in special order items, combining orders etc.
I would have no problem recommending them to others
