About Us

Independent. Local. Since 1996.

Founded in 1996 to provide new and innovative electronic security solutions in Galway and the surrounding areas, we remain dedicated to providing every customer with the most reliable and diligent service possible.

Service is the difference

If we could use only one word to describe the difference between Centaur Alarms Ltd and other providers, we would use the word SERVICE. Electronic security systems are not about equipment alone; it is about the service you receive from the operators who monitor your alarm, the people who maintain your home or business security system, and management that resolves your questions in a timely fashion.

Our experience can be measured not just in years, but in successfully meeting the protection needs of a wide variety of retail, commercial, residential, industrial and institutional customers.

As an independent security systems provider with broad supplier relationships, we select and integrate components as necessary to provide the most cost-effective solution to a security problem — rather than an off-the-shelf, "one size fits all" approach — while you receive the personalised attention that comes only from a locally owned and operated company committed to the Galway city and county communities.

Licensed and audited
