An ARC is a highly secure 24/7 monitoring facility where alarm signals are directed to from spaces such as homes, businesses and public areas. Signals are received, analysed and ultimately acted on at our Manchester based alarm receiving centre. Alarms can be triggered by an intruder, fire, panic button or medical emergency- once assessed the appropriate authorities such as the police or emergency services are prompted urgently.

​​

What makes ARC superior to standard alarms?

 

Opting for a basic standard alarm will simply just make a noise, whereas an ACR adds an additional layer of verification and quick intervention, this ensures any genuine threats are acted on immediately and false alarms are diagnosed quickly and minimised. At Absolute Solutions ARC our team of operators are professionally trained to monitor and respond to real time alerts from advanced security devices such as CCTV systems, motion detectors and smart security devices.

Manchester UK based Alarm Receiving Centre 

​

Absolute Solutions have appropriately placed our ARC in-house at our Manchester UK head quarters, we refuse to dilute our quality of surveillance by outsourcing our services outside of the countries we operate within. This separates us from most security services who only offer 3rd party monitoring services.

  • Faster Emergency Response - Direct communication to nearby emergency services are vital for time-sensitive incidents like break-ins or fires.

​

  •  No Outsourcing Issues- Outsourced ACR are typically outsourced to other countries which typically leads to issues with language barriers, and understanding of the geographical area which can result in slower decision-making and unlimitedly slower responses than UK alarm monitoring providers.

 

  •  Stronger Relationships with Authorities- Our UK ARC team have established partnerships with the police, emergency services and private security firms, which can lead to priority response times and trusted verification of alarms, reducing false alarm penalties.
