Commercial CCTV, Intruder Alarm & Access Control Installer in Hull
TL;DR: Flextec Limited is a Hull-based commercial security and fire installer covering a 100-mile radius — CCTV, intruder alarms, intercoms, access control, fire and emergency lighting. DBS-checked engineers, commercial-grade kit (Hikvision, Paxton, Pyronix, Ajax), itemised quotes, no Amazon-grade compromises.
What services do you install?
Six core service lines for commercial buyers across Hull and East Yorkshire: CCTV (Hikvision and Dahua, 4K), intruder alarms (Pyronix and Ajax, BS EN 50131 Grade 2/3), intercoms and gates (BPT, Videx, Bell, AES), access control (Paxton Net2 and CDVI biometric), fire alarms (BS 5839-1 commercial, BS 5839-6 residential), and emergency lighting (BS 5266). Twelve manufacturer accreditations across the team.
Where do you cover?
A 100-mile radius from the HU4 Anlaby base. Core territory: Hull (HU1–HU17), Beverley, Hessle, Cottingham, Driffield, Bridlington, Goole, Holderness, Withernsea, Hornsea. Wider service area: Leeds, Scunthorpe, Grimsby, Lincoln, Barton-upon-Humber. Most site walks are booked promptly; itemised quotes follow shortly after survey.
Are engineers DBS-checked?
Every engineer carries an enhanced DBS certificate as standard. That matters for care homes preparing for CQC inspection, schools, letting agents in residential blocks, and any property manager working with vulnerable tenants. Up-to-date DBS records are kept on every team member and can be produced for compliance files on request.
Who we install for
Most of our work sits with letting agents managing blocks of flats, property management companies running mixed portfolios, care and nursing homes preparing for CQC inspections, and independent retailers, pubs and cafes across Hull and East Yorkshire. We invoice on standard 30-day commercial terms, which suits surveyors, facilities managers and finance teams used to running PO-driven supply chains rather than upfront card payments.
What a typical install includes
A commercial CCTV scheme covers entry points, tills, stockrooms and external frontage with 4MP or 8MP cameras recording locally to a 30-day NVR. Intruder alarms are designed to BS EN 50131 Grade 2 specification with optional dual-path monitoring. Access control runs on Paxton Net2 or CDVI depending on door count. Every system is documented so your insurer or compliance officer has the paperwork they need.
Honest about where we are
We are a small team with forty-plus years combined experience and twelve manufacturer accreditations. CHAS certification is in progress and BAFE SP203-1 sits on the 2026 roadmap. If your insurer requires a fully third-party-certified installer for intruder or fire today, we will tell you upfront rather than take the booking and hope it works out.
Why "commercial-grade" actually matters
If you have been quoted a low-cost consumer-grade setup at a "commercial" price, here is what gets cut to land that number:
| Aspect | Consumer-grade Amazon DIY kit | Commercial-grade install |
|---|---|---|
| Camera lens build | Plastic housing, lens fogs after 6–12 months of UK weather | Glass lens, IP67-rated housing, five-plus-year typical service life |
| Recording reliability | Cloud-only behind a monthly subscription, or a microSD that corrupts | Local NVR with redundant disk, optional cloud, no mandatory monthly fee |
| Installation | DIY drilling, cables surface-run with cable clips or gaffer tape | DBS-checked engineer, conduit where needed, weatherproofed cable entries, tidy cable management |
| Insurance acceptance | Often refused as evidence in commercial claims because of grade and signage gaps | Designed to BS EN 50131 (intruder) and BS 8418 (monitored CCTV) specification — what insurers expect |
| Support when it breaks | Online forum, drop-shipped replacement, no UK installer to call | Same-day phone, remote diagnostic, on-site engineer within agreed contract terms |
None of this means "expensive" — most commercial CCTV jobs are quoted itemised after a free survey. It means the kit is built for full-time outdoor use and the install is documented properly for insurers and compliance.
