SECURITY SLA

Five years. Five sites. Zero gaps in coverage.

In A Nutshell manages your security systems under a fixed-price 12-month SLA — CCTV, access control, alarms, electric fencing, and biometrics — with quarterly servicing and daily access control backup included.

WHAT’S COVERED

Everything your security system needs. One monthly cost.

CCTV systems

Design, installation, and ongoing maintenance. Hikvision NVR, dome cameras, bullet cameras, and monitors — all maintained under your SLA.

Access control

RFID card readers to full biometric fingerprint and facial recognition. Vehicle barriers, turnstiles, mag locks, and no-touch exit buttons.

Alarm systems

Paradox alarm panels, PIR sensors, GPRS SMS modules, and smart app integration for remote monitoring from anywhere in the world.

Electric fencing

Registered installers from 6-strand domestic to 24-strand commercial protection. Nemtek products throughout. Certificate of Compliance issued on completion.

Biometric systems

Minmoe thermal and facial recognition terminals. Full integration with access control and CCTV platforms across all sites.

Daily backup and quarterly service

Access control database backed up daily. Full quarterly site service included in every SLA at no extra charge — no hidden costs.

SECURITY SLA QUESTIONS

Common questions about our Security SLA.

Our quarterly service covers a full inspection of all security equipment on site — cameras, alarm panels, PIR sensors, access control readers, electric fencing, and biometric terminals. We test every component, clean camera lenses, check cable integrity, update firmware where required, and produce a service report. Any faults found during the service are logged and resolved under your SLA at no extra charge.

If an item fails beyond repair, we assess whether it falls within the SLA scope or requires replacement. Items requiring replacement are handled via a transparent Beyond-SLA report — we research replacement options, compare suppliers, and present you with costs and our recommendation before any work proceeds. Nothing gets replaced without your approval and sign-off.

The SLA covers all callouts, parts, and maintenance on your installed security systems. Active 24/7 armed response monitoring is a separate service provided by your chosen security response company — we maintain and service the systems they monitor. If you need a recommendation for a monitoring provider in your area, John can assist.

Yes — provided the installed equipment is from brands we support (Hikvision, Paradox, Minmoe, Nemtek, Centurion, and others). We conduct a full site assessment first to document all installed equipment, identify any gaps or faults, and confirm the system is in a serviceable condition before taking it under SLA. Contact us to arrange a no-obligation assessment.
