Best security system installers in Perth CBD and West Perth (2026)
Table of Contents
Perth CBD and West Perth: this page ranks the alarm and CCTV installers Google returns for the city centre. Every installer here gives a street on its Google listing, carries a Google rating of 4.3 or better, and trades under a name that appears on the WA Police register of licensed security organisations. Three cleared all of that. They are ranked below on Google rating and review volume, with the near misses named and the reason each is not ranked.
Want this position?
Plenty of installers work the city, but most of the well-reviewed ones are off this list because their Google listing shows no street, or because Google files them as security system suppliers rather than installers. Adding your street to your Google profile, fixing your category and claiming your free listing all cost nothing. A paid placement is labelled FEATURED and never changes the order below.
See placement optionsSecurity Solutions WA
Security Solutions WA holds 5.0 from 25 Google reviews, Google lists it as a security system installation service, and its Google listing publishes a street address in Perth. Weighted 4.6000, 0.0413 clear of #2. The Google address is level 25 of a Spring Street office tower, so treat it as an office address rather than a shopfront and ring before you visit.
The trading name appears on the WA Police list of licensed security organisations (dated 7 September 2026) with Security Agent licence 28937. That is the business licence that lets it advertise and supply installation work. It does not tell you which technician turns up or which installer class that person holds. Ask to see the installer’s own licence card.
View listingRAC Security
RAC Security holds 4.6 from 142 Google reviews, Google lists it as a security system installation service, and its Google listing publishes a street address in West Perth. Weighted 4.5587, 0.1115 clear of #3. RAC Security is the home security arm of RAC, the WA motoring and insurance club, and appears on the register as RAC Security Services. It is a large organisation rather than a local owner-operator, so ask whether your install is done by RAC staff or a subcontractor.
The trading name appears on the WA Police list of licensed security organisations (dated 7 September 2026) with Security Agent licence 74252. That is the business licence that lets it advertise and supply installation work. It does not tell you which technician turns up or which installer class that person holds. Ask to see the installer’s own licence card.
View listingThe Installers
The Installers holds 4.4 from 112 Google reviews, Google lists it as a security system installation service, and its Google listing publishes a street address in Perth. Weighted 4.4472. The register lists it as The Installers (Aust). Its Google address is an office suite on St Georges Terrace.
The trading name appears on the WA Police list of licensed security organisations (dated 7 September 2026) with Security Agent licence 61906. That is the business licence that lets it advertise and supply installation work. It does not tell you which technician turns up or which installer class that person holds. Ask to see the installer’s own licence card.
View listingWhy these 3 and not the rest
An installer is ranked here only if it clears five tests at once: a Google rating of at least 4.3, more than two reviews, a street on its own Google listing, a Google category of security system installation service, and a trading name that appears on the WA Police register of licensed security organisations. About forty different businesses came back across six Google searches for Perth, West Perth, Leederville, Northbridge and Victoria Park, and eight place pages were opened. These 3 cleared every test, and none of them shares a licence number with another, so each is a separate business.
All three give office addresses in the CBD or West Perth. Installers come to you, so the address mostly tells you where the business is based. Three is a short list. We would rather rank three that clear every test than pad it with businesses that do not.
Victoria Park, Burswood and Carlisle are not on this page. The searches for that side of the river turned up no installer that Google files as a security system installer with a street of its own there, so no ranking is claimed for it.
Not being ranked is not a finding that a business is unlicensed. Several of the close calls below are on the register too. They are off the list for category, rating, review count or address.
Close calls, named
Each of these came up in the same searches. None is ranked, for the reason given. None of it is a statement about the quality of their work or their licence.
- Innogreen (Carr Pl, Leederville) – 5.0 from 281 reviews: its Google place page lists it as a disability services and support organisation, not a security installer.
- Connect & Protect – 4.8 from 59 reviews, VP Security Solutions – 4.9 from 108, and Dextel Electrical & Security Services – 5.0 from 22: all three are on the WA Police register and Google lists them as installers, but their Google listings give no street address, so they cannot be placed in this area.
- Perth Alarm Systems – 4.7 from 27 reviews: on the register, but its Google place page could not be found from the search results, so its address could not be checked.
- Securitec Security (Perth) 5.0 from 68, Tecsec Security and CCTV Solutions (West Perth) 4.9 from 15, and Smart Security (East Victoria Park) 4.3 from 90: Google lists them as security system suppliers.
- Brillare Perth Electricians – 5.0 from 521 reviews: an electrical contractor that Google lists as a security system supplier.
- Securus (West Perth) – 3.8 from 23 reviews: under the 4.3 rating floor.
- Perth Security Systems (Nedlands) – 5.0 from 2 reviews: under the three-review minimum.
What a WA security licence actually tells you
Security installation in Western Australia is licensed by WA Police under the Security and Related Activities (Control) Act 1996. The WA Police licence-types page, read for this page on 30 October 2026, splits licences into two kinds. Agent licences authorise a business to advertise and supply security services. Non-agent licences, including the Security Installer licence, authorise a person to do the work.
The same page says installers who are self-employed or subcontracting under their own ABN must hold their own Security Agent’s licence. That is why the register of security organisations is a fair test for this trade: a business that installs under its own name should be on it.
| Installer class | What WA Police says it covers | Typical home job |
|---|---|---|
| Class 1 | Safes, vaults and locks of a kind prescribed in Regulation 6 | Safes, high-security locks |
| Class 2 | Security alarms, closed circuit television for security purposes, and equipment and devices prescribed in Regulation 8 | Alarm panels, sensors, CCTV cameras and recorders |
| Class 3 | Security doors prescribed in Regulation 7 | Security screen doors |
| Class 4 | Installing locks of a kind referred to in Regulation 6 | Fitting locks |
For an alarm or a camera system, the class to ask about is Class 2. The licence-types page also says the Security Installer licence does not apply to security equipment in vehicles, vessels or aircraft, so a car alarm fitter is a different question.
Two honest limits on what this page checked. It matched each trading name to the WA Police organisations list, which shows the trading name, the licence holder and the licence number. That list is dated 7 September 2026, so a licence granted, cancelled or changed since then will not show. It did not check the individual installer licences of the people each business sends out. Ask for those yourself.
What to ask before booking
Who installs it, and what’s their installer licence number? The agent licence covers the business. The person in your roof space needs their own Security Installer licence for alarm and CCTV work. Ask for the number and the class.
Do I own the equipment and the codes? Some alarm and camera packages lock the panel or the recorder to one company. Ask whether you get the installer code and the admin password at handover, so you can change provider later without replacing hardware.
What does monitoring cost, and for how long am I locked in? Back-to-base monitoring is a separate monthly fee. Get the term, the price after any introductory period, and the exit cost in writing before you sign.
Apartment or office? In the CBD and West Perth a lot of jobs are in strata buildings. Ask whether the installer has worked with your building manager before, and check the strata rules on cameras that face common property.
Where does the camera footage go? On a recorder on site, to a cloud service, or both. Cloud storage usually comes with a subscription. Ask what it costs after the first year.
Red flags
- No licence number on the quote, the van or the website. Ask once. If the answer is vague, ring someone else.
- A long monitoring contract bundled into a “free” or cheap system. Work out the total over the term before you sign.
- Locked equipment. If you won’t get the installer code or the recorder password, you are renting, not buying.
- Cameras sold on megapixels alone. Ask what the picture looks like at night at the distance you care about, such as the driveway or the front door.
- Cash only, no invoice. No invoice means no paper trail if the system fails.
How this list was built
Google data. Ratings, review counts, streets and categories come from Google’s own place records for security installer searches across Perth, West Perth, Leederville, Northbridge and Victoria Park, read on 30 October 2026. Every ranked installer’s place page was opened and its address, category and map position checked.
Weighted score, not raw stars. Each installer is scored with a Bayesian average that pulls a small sample toward 4.5, so 5.0 from 25 reviews does not automatically outrank 4.6 from 142.
The WA Police register. Each trading name was matched on the WA Police list of licensed security organisations, read on 30 October 2026. Three known licence holders were looked up first as a control, to prove the list was being read correctly.
Nothing here was paid for. Placement on this list cannot be bought. Paid placements are labelled FEATURED and sit outside the ranking. Elsewhere in Perth, see the best security system installers in Stirling, Osborne Park and Balcatta and the best security system installers in Joondalup, Wanneroo and the northern suburbs.
Questions homeowners ask
How did you rank these installers?
By a weighted Google rating that balances score against the number of reviews, among installers in the Perth CBD and West Perth searches that give a street on Google, are listed by Google as security system installers, and appear on the WA Police register of licensed security organisations.
Are these rankings paid?
No. Paid placements are marked FEATURED and do not change the order.
Why only three installers?
Because only three cleared every test. Most of the others in the searches had no street on their Google listing or were filed by Google as suppliers rather than installers. The list will grow when more installers meet the same tests.
Does an installer missing from this list mean they’re unlicensed?
No. Most businesses left off are off it for Google category, rating, review count or a missing address. Ask any installer for their licence number and check it yourself.
How do I check a security installer’s licence in WA?
WA Police publishes lists of current licence holders on wa.gov.au, including a list of security organisations and a list of security installers. Search the business name or the licence number the installer gives you.
