Fire and Security Software UK: 2026 Buyer's Guide
Fire and security software for small UK installers: PPM, service records, equipment registers, offline app, VAT invoices. Start a free trial.
A buyer's guide to fire and security software for small UK installers with 1 to 15 engineers working on intruder alarms, CCTV, access control, fire alarms and emergency lighting. It compares what a small firm actually uses with what enterprise suites sell, then explains planned preventive maintenance (PPM) plainly: the contract, the visit frequency, due dates and recurring invoicing.
It covers service records after every visit, built from your own forms on the phone and downloaded as an A4 branded PDF with photos, signatures and a next service due date, along with a site equipment register with QR labels that open each item's job history. It looks at an engineer app that works offline in plant rooms, VAT invoices in pounds with card pay links, and white label branding.
A printable buyer's checklist and a pricing table for 2, 5 and 10 users at $19.99 per user a month follow. It is honest about limits: no alarm receiving centre integration, no remote panel programming, and KaamCam is not a certification body. The guide closes with a plain note that it is record-keeping guidance, not legal or fire safety advice, with context on the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005..
