Family-run since 1995 and SSAIB approved. Protect your premises, stock and staff with an intruder alarm watched around the clock from our own UK control room. Insurance-grade systems, real-time LiveTalk audio response, and police response where your premises qualify. When your alarm activates out of hours, trained operators act in seconds, not the next morning.

Most break-ins happen when nobody's there
Offices, units and warehouses are at their most exposed at night, over weekends and across bank holidays, exactly when a bells-only alarm relies on someone passing by to care. An AMCO monitored system is watched from our own Alarm Receiving Centre, so the moment it activates, trained operators respond, verify, and escalate. That's the difference between a nuisance noise and a protected business.
One team, one site or fifty
Whether it's a single office or branches across the region, you deal with the same Birmingham team and one monitoring account. No subcontractors, no patchwork of suppliers.
Cover when your premises are empty
Every activation reaches our own UK control room, staffed day and night. We assess it, check the premises, and escalate to your keyholders or the police as needed, so an out-of-hours break-in doesn't become a Monday-morning discovery.
At AMCO, you're not a ticket number in a call centre. From your first site survey to your installed system, you deal with the same local team who know your area and your premises. Here's who's looking after you.
