Looking for an alternative to ADT?
AMCO is a family-owned, independent UK alarm company - not a large corporate provider. We build our installations on Texecom equipment, monitor with our own two-way LiveTalk audio technology, and hold SSAIB certification throughout.

Independent, well-equipped, properly accredited
Choosing a monitoring provider isn't only about price - it's about who answers the phone, what equipment is behind your alarm, and whether standards are independently checked.
A family-owned, independent company
AMCO isn't part of a large corporate group - we're an independent, family-owned business. That tends to mean more direct, personal support: when you call, you're talking to people who know the UK alarm industry closely, not working through layers of a national call centre.
Why customers choose AMCOBuilt on Texecom, backed by LiveTalk
Our installations are built around Texecom equipment - a well-regarded UK security-equipment manufacturer - paired with LiveTalk, our two-way audio monitoring technology. That combination means a monitoring centre that can actually listen and speak into your property when an alarm activates, rather than relying solely on a call-back.
About our Texecom installationsSSAIB certified, properly accredited
AMCO's installation and monitoring are SSAIB certified, one of the UK's recognised security-industry accreditation bodies. That matters for insurance purposes and for Police Response eligibility, and it's independently audited rather than self-declared.
