Properties and sites in Alberton

Meyersdal, New Redruth and Brackenhurst combine older homes and gated estates, so requests range from wall-top electric fencing and beams to guardhouses with visitor systems.

Alrode and the surrounding industrial parks need guarding, patrols and perimeter detection for yards and warehouses. Alberton has several security companies, so compare response times and ask whether the vehicle covering you is shared with several other areas.

- Homeowners and families: an alarm and panic button linked to a response vehicle and a short keyholder list
