Why choose a monitored home security system?
A monitored home alarm system provides a level of protection that a standard alarm cannot. For any homeowner in Ireland, here is why it matters:
- 24/7 professional monitoring: If your alarm is triggered, Action24's certified Alarm Receiving Centre is alerted immediately. They assess the situation and contact the emergency services if needed, even if you are not at home.
- Faster emergency response: Because the alarm connects directly to a monitoring centre, response times are typically faster than relying on a neighbour hearing a siren.
- Reduced burglary risk: Monitored alarm systems are a visible deterrent. Action24's external flashing bell box signals an active, professionally monitored system, which can discourage break-in attempts.
- Potential insurance savings: A monitored alarm can lower your Home Insurance premium. Insurers often offer more competitive rates for homes with approved alarm systems, because they reduce both the likelihood and severity of claims.
- Peace of mind: Whether you are at work, on holiday, or simply asleep, you know your home is being watched.

Can a home alarm reduce my insurance premium?
Yes, having an approved monitored alarm installed and maintained in working order can qualify you for an alarm discount on your An Post Insurance Home Insurance premium. The alarm must be activated when nobody is at home. The discount is available across all underwriters for owner-occupied properties. For landlord and holiday home policies, the alarm discount is available with Aviva only. Allianz offers the discount for owner-occupied properties only.
A monitored alarm can reduce the risk of a successful break-in, which can help keep claims-free records intact and support lower premiums over time.

The staff that looked after my renewal were all excellent. I was changing my car a few days before renewal and they took care of everything. They helped me with my payment (I was stressed at the time) and were so patient. Overall, very happy with the service. Janette 1st - Mar - 2026
