Security Companies and their Salespeople

Please note that any security company or sales person must be licenced and must be able to produce their identification on demand.

So if you have a door to door person trying to sell you security devices you can ask to sight their security licence identification and also ask them for their business card.

Some people selling door to door are wearing some clothing that says the company that they are working for but still ask for the identification.

If you are approached by someone that is unable to produce their security licence then please contact Howick Police on 5380300. Please get their name, company they are selling for, description. If you are able to get any any motor registration details do so.

Remember there are a number of security devices around and if you require one please shop around and get prices, specifications etc so you can make a well balanced informed decision. If you are a member of Consumers Institute then give them a call or contact them on their website - if you are not a member you can pay a small fee and obtain some information or perhaps - join.

You can get your alarm monitored by a security company or you can have calling your cellphone. One other thing if your are in a group make sure all of you respond if one another's alarm activates.

There are a number of security companies listed in the Yellow Pages.
