Hi all, I have two contracts with Premier Security for different properties in Nuttall Road. I have negotiated a discount on this basis from R300/month each to R269 each.
I have also found their technical services and new installation charges to be very competitive. I am happy with their service. Further, they have advised that if/when they have more clients in Observatory they will be able increase their fixed presence, including introducing bicycle patrols. I urge *everyone* to (1) install an alarm linked to a monitoring & response service (2) consider Premier Security as their service provider (3) ask Premier to expand their presence on the basis of their expanded client base.
