Takeover, repair and upgrade routes for existing alarm and CCTV systems

An existing alarm or CCTV system does not always need to be replaced. NOX can inspect suitable systems, identify faults and access issues, and recommend servicing, repair, selective upgrades or replacement only where it makes sense.

  • Initial system inspection
  • Panel or recorder review
  • Known-fault assessment
  • Access and compatibility checks
  • Repair or upgrade recommendations
  • Ongoing maintenance options

Customer reviews

Trusted for clear advice, tidy installation and local support

★★★★★
We had NOX Fire & Security install our commercial fire alarm system alongside an intruder alarm, and the whole experience was spot on from start to finish. Clean, professional installation, everything clearly explained, and the system is easy to manage through the app with instant alerts. The fire system is clear, reliable and easy for the team to manage without overcomplicating things. No pushy sales, no unnecessary contracts — just honest advice and proper workmanship. You can tell they care about doing things right. Highly recommend NOX for any business looking for fire or security systems in Chesterfield / Sheffield.

Brilliant service from NOX. Super professional, knowledgeable, and they went out of their way to be helpful. Everything was explained clearly and in detail. The install was tidy, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. We were thinking about getting a security system for a while and now we're so glad we went with NOX. Would 100% recommend to anyone.

We recently had NOX install cameras, smoke screens, and alarms at our office and the whole experience has been spot on from start to finish. From the very first phone call with Isaac, everything felt straightforward and reassuring. He took the time to explain our options, answered all our questions, and helped design a system that made sense for our building and our budget. No pushy sales tactics at all, which was refreshing. The installation was smooth, the team were professional, and even after everything was fitted, Isaac has been on hand to help with any follow-up questions. A really great service and a company I'd happily recommend.

Common questions

Clear information before you enquire

Can you take over an alarm installed by another company?

Often yes, subject to the make, condition, access, compatibility and parts availability.

Can old CCTV cameras work with a new recorder?

Sometimes. The camera technology, resolution, cabling and recorder compatibility need to be checked first.

Will you recommend replacement automatically?

No. The aim is to identify the most sensible route based on condition, supportability, faults and the customer's requirement.
