I’ve been working with Ian, Tim and all at DNA for over 12 years on multiple residential & commercial buildings. Whenever I need support with intruder alarms, access controls, or fire alarms, DNA are my first call. Tim provides sensible advice, respond quickly, and I can trust them to get the job done without any fuss. It makes a big difference working with a company you can rely on long-term, and I’d have no hesitation recommending DNA.

We have been working with DNA Security for over 20 years. Amazing to know that you have a supplier that is always trying to get the best deal for you and save money in the long run. They have very good guys working for them for years, who know our building inside out and it is so much easier than always a getting somebody new. Tim and his team always are on the other end of the line.
