Albion Detection Systems was established in 1984, initially focusing on fire alarm design and installation across South Yorkshire. In the years since, we have grown our capabilities considerably, expanding into electronic security, passive fire protection and emergency systems to become a genuinely comprehensive detection and protection company.That growth has been built on one thing: repeat business from clients who trust us to get it right. Because we operate independently, we have always been free to recommend the products we believe are best suited to a client’s needs, not the products we are locked into supplying.
What We Stand For
Our purpose is straightforward: to protect the people, property and assets of every business and organisation we work with. We do that by taking the time to understand each client’s specific situation, building layout, operations, risk profile, and budget, and by designing a system that genuinely addresses those needs.We believe that good fire and security protection should not be a compromise. As an independent company working with leading manufacturers, we are in a position to deliver that without the limitations of a tied supply relationship.
Clients, Partners & Accreditations
Over more than 40 years, we have developed a well-respected reputation for supplying and maintaining detection and security systems for a wide and varied client base. Our work includes installations for organisations, including:
