Choosing an alarm system for your home in Spain is more than just comparing prices – it’s about true security, whether you’re at home or away. Do you want to be alerted after a burglar has already entered, or prevent break-ins before they happen? At Best Alarm System, we offer subscription-free Hikvision AX PRO and AJAX systems that stop burglars with outdoor detection, jamming-resistant technology, and direct app notifications. Many competitors lure with ‘free’ systems but deliver vulnerable alarms lacking customization or transparency, easily disabled by a burglar with a signal jammer. This article explains why our starter packages (€399 to €799) are superior, how outdoor detection is always possible, and why comparing quotes is pointless without assessing quality. Discover how to make a smart choice for your home in Spain.
What Do Our Starter Packages Offer?
Our starter packages provide reliable security without subscription fees, designed to both alert and prevent break-ins. Ranging from €399 to €799, they offer complete indoor detection systems with sensors, a siren, and app notifications. Higher packages (up to €799) include faster 4G connectivity or a foundation for outdoor detection, tailored to your property. All packages are fully owned, with no hidden costs, and provide transparent control via the app, so you always know your system is working – from battery status to sabotage attempts.
Whether you have a flat in Torrevieja or a villa in Jávea, our starter packages offer a solid foundation for safety. Choose a package that suits your needs and optionally add outdoor detection with wireless cameras for unmatched prevention.
Why Subscription Systems Often Fail
Many security companies offer ‘free’ alarm systems but burden you with ongoing monthly fees and systems that don’t stop burglars. These subscription systems fail for critical reasons:
- No jamming detection: A burglar can disable the system with a signal jammer (easily bought online) without you or a control room noticing. Google searches for jammers show how commonly they’re used.
- No customization: You get a standard package, often without a siren – let alone an outdoor siren – allowing burglars to operate unhindered.
- No transparency: You can’t verify if the system works. One customer paid for 11 years for a system that hadn’t functioned for 10 years due to dead batteries, with no service provided, as lack of transparency prevents complaints.
- Useless control rooms: Spain’s Ley de Seguridad Privada (Law 5/2014, Articles 43 and 44) requires control rooms to contact the owner for verification before involving the police. If you miss their call – often in Spanish – nothing happens. This causes delays, and without a siren, the burglar isn’t even deterred. Some companies mislead customers by suggesting the police will always respond, which is legally false.
- Deceptive practices: Companies discourage testing systems, falsely claiming it triggers police intervention or fines, to hide that their systems are faulty or vulnerable.
Our Hikvision and AJAX systems deliver what subscription systems promise but rarely achieve: direct notifications, jamming detection, and customization without monthly fees. Your system remains fully owned, and the app shows instantly if everything works – with alerts well before batteries need replacing.
Alerting vs. Preventing
Do you want to know a burglar is inside, or stop them before they enter your home? Subscription systems often only alert – they trigger after a burglar has caused damage, if they work at all. Our starter packages (€399 to €799) provide reliable indoor detection, but for true prevention, outdoor detection is essential. With wireless cameras, we activate a siren as soon as someone enters your property, prompting burglars to flee before reaching your door. Choose prevention over mere alerting.
Why Outdoor Detection Is Always Possible and Accessible
Outdoor detection is feasible for every home and doesn’t have to be expensive. With just one wireless camera (from €139 extra), you can secure an area like a garden or terrace. Our cameras distinguish people from animals, send instant notifications to your smartphone, and can be mounted anywhere – regardless of vegetation or elevation differences. This makes outdoor detection accessible and effective. For larger properties, we add extra cameras tailored to your needs. Even during a power outage, our system alerts you immediately, ensuring you always stay in control.
Our Approach: Direct Installation, No Advisory Visits
At Best Alarm System, we prioritize efficiency and results. We don’t offer advisory site visits, as the same advice can be provided using photos or videos of your property via WhatsApp, saving us up to 3 hours of travel time. Our approach is clear:
- Choose in advance: Select a starter package (€399 to €799) via our cost calculator. For indoor detection or outdoor detection with cameras, the calculator provides an exact price. For outdoor detection with sensors? Send us images of your property and garden for a precise quote.
- Serious appointment: Schedule an installation appointment via our contact form, confirming you want a starter package installed. This ensures we visit only committed customers.
- Immediate installation: We discuss your needs on-site (e.g., number of cameras for outdoor detection), finalize details, and install immediately with all products in our van. Your home is secured the same day.
Use our cost calculator for an exact price estimate in advance, so you know what to expect. For customers near Torrevieja, an exploratory discussion is sometimes possible, but for distant locations, we require commitment to a starter package to minimize travel time.
Why Comparing Quotes Is Pointless Without Assessing Quality
Comparing quotes seems smart but is often like comparing apples to oranges. Subscription systems entice with ‘free’ installations, but hide the true costs: monthly payments that rise after a year, with no clarity on future fees. Worse, their systems lack quality. A burglar with a jammer can disable them without detection – an unacceptable risk for your safety. One customer paid for 11 years for a system that hadn’t worked for 10 years due to dead batteries, with no service provided, as lack of transparency prevents complaints. Such systems often lack a siren or use a non-waterproof indoor siren outdoors, without sabotage protection. Control rooms add no value: per the Ley de Seguridad Privada (Law 5/2014, Articles 43 and 44), they must contact the owner first, causing delays. Miss their Spanish call? No police, no siren, no security.
At Best Alarm System, our costs are transparent: starter package prices (€399 to €799) are listed online, and outdoor detection with cameras is customized on-site. Our systems offer jamming detection, transparent app control, and customization, like cameras that keep burglars out. We’re so confident in our quality that we’re the only company in Spain offering a €1000 reimbursement if a break-in succeeds while our system is active, under our guarantee terms. Don’t compare quotes on price – compare on quality: does your system prevent break-ins or just report them? Choose certainty.
Conclusion: Protect Your Home Smartly and Effectively
Choosing an alarm system in Spain is about quality, not the cheapest quote. Subscription systems mislead with ‘free’ alarms that don’t stop burglars, offer no transparency, and rely on useless control rooms. People often fall for these lures, paying lifelong for systems that become useless upon cancellation – or, as one customer found, were faulty for years due to dead batteries. Our Hikvision AX PRO and AJAX systems prevent break-ins with outdoor detection, instant notifications, and full app control. Starter packages (€399 to €799) provide a reliable foundation, and outdoor detection with wireless cameras (from €139 extra) is always possible. Use our cost calculator for an exact price, and schedule an installation via our contact form. We install immediately after your commitment, with customization on-site, ensuring your home is secure the same day. Protect with a system that works – skip inferior quotes.
