What we do
Security systems installed with care, attention to detail and a professional finish.
From a single video doorbell to a complete alarm and CCTV system, every installation is carefully planned, neatly fitted and fully set up. We hide cables wherever possible, configure your app and show you exactly how everything works before we leave.
CCTV System Installation
Professionally installed CCTV systems with full-colour night vision and excellent, crisp coverage using AI. Capture clear, detailed footage of people, vehicles and activity around your property, day and night.
Video Doorbells
See and speak to whoever is at your door from your phone, with clear two-way audio and HD recorded footage of every visit — with no monthly fees or subscription charges, ever.
Remote CCTV Solutions
We install CCTV in remote buildings and locations without internet access, using reliable 4G connections or microwave links. Ideal for farms, yards, outbuildings, construction sites and other hard-to-reach properties.
Upgrades & Maintenance
Keep your CCTV and alarm systems working reliably with professional repairs, servicing and upgrades. We replace outdated cameras, carry out system health checks, change alarm batteries and install additional sounders, keypads, PIR sensors and other equipment as required. Our no fix, no fee policy means you won't pay a repair charge unless we get your system working again.
See the Difference
Footage that is clear when it matters most.
Low-quality cameras often produce grainy, unusable images at the exact moment you need them. We install high-quality digital CCTV systems designed to capture sharp, detailed and full-colour footage, day and night. We don't fit budget DIY systems bought from Amazon or eBay — only professional-grade equipment from trusted manufacturers, installed and configured properly. Take a look at real footage captured by systems we've installed for our customers.

Same camera, same spot — drag the slider to compare day and night. Our cameras stay in full colour after dark.
The budget-camera problem
This is the kind of grainy, low-resolution footage a typical cheap camera captures at night — often useless at the exact moment you need it. It's exactly what we replace.

See the Upgrade
Modern alarm systems, professionally upgraded or taken over.
Old alarm systems can become unreliable, difficult to use and expensive to keep repairing. We can upgrade outdated panels, keypads, sensors and external sounders, or fully take over an existing system and bring it back into reliable working order. Where possible, we retain suitable existing equipment to keep costs down — replacing only what's needed and reconfiguring the system properly.
We don't fit cheap DIY alarm kits from Amazon or eBay. We install and maintain professional-grade systems from trusted manufacturers, finished neatly and set up correctly.
The difference between an old, tired alarm system and a modern system upgraded by MS Security Systems.
Why use MS Security?
Run by an installer, not a call centre.
MS Security Systems is led by director Steve Brown. The person who surveys your property is the same person who carries out the installation and answers the phone when you need support afterwards. We're authorised installers of Pyronix and Hikvision systems and keep up to date with the latest products, training and industry developments — you'll even find us at major industry events like The Security Event 2026 at the NEC in Birmingham. So we only recommend technology that's reliable, useful and worth investing in.
Local to the North East
Based on Tyneside and covering Newcastle, Gateshead, Sunderland, Durham, Northumberland and beyond. You get local service, quicker callouts and a familiar face from start to finish.
Genuine, quality equipment
We install genuine, professional-grade equipment from trusted security manufacturers — not cheap copies or budget DIY systems that may let you down when you need them most.
Tidy, professional installations
Every installation is completed with care and attention to detail. Cables are hidden wherever possible, equipment is positioned neatly and your property is left clean and tidy.
Setup and aftercare
We configure your system and mobile app, show you exactly how everything works and remain available afterwards for support, maintenance and future upgrades.

Google Read reviews"Great service. We had a house alarm, cameras and video doorbells fitted and had no problems at all. Very professional service and would highly recommend."
Facebook Read reviews"The camera quality is unbelievable! Such clear footage even at night, and it captures sound and detects people and vehicles. Steve was so helpful and helped us get set up with the app — and checked in that everything was running smoothly even after the job."
Checkatrade Read reviews"I had MS Security install 4 Hikvision cameras in my home and couldn't be happier. Carried out to a very high standard with all cables neatly hidden — a really professional finish. They took the time to demonstrate the system, and the price was very fair. I'd definitely recommend."
