Alarm for SMEs in Madrid: professional security for your business
An alarm for SMEs in Madrid must protect offices, warehouses, workshops, storerooms and professional practices without complicating the team's day-to-day work. At VIAN SEGUR we design systems for small and medium-sized businesses that need to control access, protect computer equipment, documents and stock, and know at all times who arms and disarms the alarm. Each installation is adapted to the property, the schedules and the number of users.
VIAN SEGUR · Security for businesses
An alarm designed around the way your business works
SMEs have variable schedules, several users, visitors, suppliers and areas with different levels of access. A professional system with individual users, connection to an Alarm Receiving Centre and dual GSM/LAN communication protects the business without getting in the way of its activity.

What an SME needs from its alarm system
A business is neither a home nor a street-level shop. There are usually several people with keys, different entry and exit times, computer equipment, sensitive documents and, in many cases, a warehouse or production area.
That is why an SME's alarm must combine reliable detection, user management and communication that does not depend solely on the office network.
Access points and perimeter
Main doors, loading docks, emergency exits, windows onto courtyards and access from the building's or industrial estate's common areas.
Zones with different levels
Zoning makes it possible to keep the warehouse, data room or archive armed while people work in the office, and to give access only to those who need it.
Users and traceability
Each employee has their own code and schedule. The system records who arms and disarms it, and alerts you if the business is left open outside working hours.
Offices, warehouses and workshops: each space is protected differently
In an office, the risk usually lies in computer equipment, documents and access from common areas. In a warehouse or workshop, it lies in machinery, tools, stock and access through loading docks or large doors.
The preliminary study defines which detectors to use in each zone and whether it is worth complementing the alarm with CCTV cameras to verify alerts and record access.
Offices and professional practices
Indoor detection, contacts on access points, user control and specific protection for the data room or archive.
Warehouses, workshops and storerooms
Detection adapted to large spaces, protection of docks and sectional doors and, if there is a plot, perimeter protection.
Remote management and control for the person in charge of the business
The manager or security officer can check the system status, receive alerts and arm or disarm remotely. It is useful when someone forgets to arm the alarm when closing up or when you need to give one-off access to a supplier or a cleaning service.
If the activity is among the establishments required by private security regulations, the system must meet Grade 3. We check this in the preliminary study so that the installation is the right one.
Out-of-hours opening alerts
The system can alert you if someone disarms the alarm outside authorised hours or if the business is left unarmed.
Adding and removing users
When an employee joins or leaves, their code is added or removed without changing locks or the other codes.
How we install an SME alarm
The process is designed not to interrupt the company's activity and to leave a system that is easy for the whole team to use.
01
Site visit
We review access points, work areas, warehouse, valuable equipment, schedules and number of users.
02
Tailor-made proposal
We define zones, devices, security grade and communications according to the company's activity.
03
Installation and training
We install outside working hours when needed, configure users and explain how to use the system to the team.
04
Maintenance
An assigned technician carries out the annual review and adapts the system if the premises or the workforce change.
ARC connection and police alert
With the alarm connected to an Alarm Receiving Centre, signals are handled 24 hours a day. If the intrusion is verified, the centre notifies the security forces and the company's contact persons according to the agreed protocol.
Dual GSM/LAN path
Cutting the internet or phone line is a well-known way of isolating a business. With dual GSM/LAN communication, if one path fails the other keeps transmitting alerts.
Do you know who closed the business yesterday and at what time?
With individual users and remote management, your SME's security no longer depends on the memory of whoever locks up last.

Common mistakes in SME security
Sharing a single code among the whole workforce.
Not removing the codes of employees who no longer work at the company.
Protecting the office and forgetting the warehouse, loading docks or emergency exits.
Relying on the company's internet line as the only communication path.
Not connecting the alarm to an ARC and trusting that someone will hear the siren on an empty industrial estate.
Not reviewing the system after an extension, a refurbishment or a change of activity.
Frequently asked questions about alarms for SMEs in Madrid
What alarm grade does an SME need?
Most SMEs are covered by a Grade 2 alarm connected to an ARC. Some activities required by private security regulations must meet Grade 3.
Can each employee have their own code?
Yes. Each user has their own code and, if needed, schedule or zone restrictions. The system records who arms and disarms it.
Can I manage the company alarm from my phone?
Yes. Remote management lets you arm and disarm, receive alerts and check the system status.
Can the warehouse be protected while we work in the office?
Yes. With zoning, each area is armed separately according to use and schedule.
What happens if the internet is cut at the business?
With dual GSM/LAN, the alarm keeps communicating with the receiving centre through whichever path remains available.
Is it suitable for warehouses on industrial estates?
Yes. We adapt detection to large spaces and, if there is a plot, add perimeter protection and CCTV.
Do you install outside working hours?
Yes, we adapt the installation to the company's schedule so as not to interrupt its activity.
