Securitas Direct and Verisure alarms in Barcelona

Securitas Direct (Verisure) alarms in the province of Barcelona
The province of Barcelona concentrates the highest demand for security in Catalonia. From the city of Barcelona and the rest of the Barcelonès to the coastal towns of the Maresme, the towns of the Vallès, the Baix Llobregat, the Bages or the Penedès, urban flats, houses with gardens, second homes and all kinds of businesses live side by side. Each property calls for a different kind of protection.
Whether you're looking for Securitas Direct alarms or Verisure —the same company—, here's the information laid out clearly: how it works, what's included, what it costs and what customers think. The system is sized to your case in a free security survey, with entry detection, image verification and a permanent link to the Alarm Receiving Centre.

From the city to the house with a garden
In the urban setting of Barcelona, l'Hospitalet, Badalona or Santa Coloma the flat predominates: door, landing and accessible windows. In the Vallès, the Maresme or the Baix Llobregat the house with a garden gains ground, calling for a reinforced perimeter with an outdoor camera. And businesses and industry across the province are protected zone by zone, with surveillance outside opening hours.
- Flats: door, landing and windows
- Houses: perimeter and outdoor camera
- Businesses: zone-by-zone protection
- Second homes: entry detection
A complete system, not a standalone gadget
Each device has a job —to detect, verify, deter and alert— and they all work together under the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC). It isn't a standalone gadget that just makes noise, but a system that checks what's happening and acts for you, one you control entirely from your phone.

Control panel
The brain of the system: it arms, disarms and connects to the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) in an instant.

Verification camera
It records and visually verifies what happens indoors the moment an alarm goes off.

Outdoor 360° camera
It watches the perimeter day and night and spots an intruder before they get in.

Photo-detector
It detects movement and sends an instant photo to the ARC to verify the alert.

Entry detector
It alerts you the moment a protected door or window is opened.

Key-fob remote
Arm and disarm your alarm from your pocket, with a built-in SOS button.

Securitas Direct and Verisure: the same security, two names
When you search for an alarm in Catalonia, two names come up that tend to cause confusion: Securitas Direct and Verisure. It's worth clearing this up, because a lot of people assume they're separate companies —and they aren't: it's the same alarm company. Verisure is the group's international brand name and, in Spain, its service was known for years as Securitas Direct. The equipment, the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) —the monitoring centre that keeps watch over your alarm— the image verification and the technical service are exactly the same, whichever name you search for.
So whether you're looking to sign up for Securitas Direct alarms or Verisure alarms, this website serves you just the same: we advise you on Securitas Direct (Verisure) systems for your home, your second home or your business, with a free, no-obligation security assessment. Our aim is simple and down to earth: to solve your security problem, protect you against break-ins and squatting, and give you the peace of mind of knowing that, if something happens, someone verifies it and acts for you, 24 hours a day.
Why do so many people in Catalonia choose Securitas Direct (Verisure) alarms? Above all for one reason: they don't just make noise. When a sensor detects an intrusion, the signal reaches the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC), which checks what has happened —by image or audio— and, if the threat is real, alerts the police and calls you. That verification is what turns an alarm into real protection, because it cuts down false alarms and speeds up the response when it matters most. On top of that come the details you notice day to day: installation with no building work in a few hours, control from your phone to arm and disarm remotely, the visible deterrent plaque you can see from the street, and an in-house technical service that responds when you need it.
It doesn't matter what you want to protect —a flat in the town centre, a villa on the coast, a house that sits empty for part of the year or a shop at street level—: the Securitas Direct and Verisure system is scaled to your specific case during the security assessment, so you pay only for what you genuinely need. Tell us what your home or business is like and we'll put together a clear quote, with no hidden lock-ins and no small print, so you can decide with all the information on the table.

Does it work without power or internet?
