Alarm systems in Torremolinos

We protect your home in Torremolinos even when you're away

Ask anyone who owns a place in Torremolinos and they'll tell you the same thing: the flat is rarely empty in August and rarely occupied in February. That is the reality for a large slice of the town, from the holiday apartments in Playamar and El Bajondillo to the family villas up in Montemar and the retirement flats around El Calvario, and it is exactly the reality burglars count on. A dark balcony on the third floor, post piling up behind the door, blinds that haven't moved in a fortnight. It doesn't take a professional to spot it.

Segurma has been installing and monitoring alarms in Spain for more than 40 years, and Torremolinos is one of the places where the system genuinely earns its keep. When a detector trips, the signal lands in our own Alarm Receiving Centre, not a call centre we've outsourced, where an operator looks at the images and listens to the audio before deciding what is going on. If it's your cleaner arriving early, nothing happens. If it's an intrusion, we alert the Police and ring you, wherever you are. You see it all on the app at the same time.

What that means for an owner who isn't here all year

• Someone is actually watching. Our own Alarm Receiving Centre, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, with police-connected verified response. Registered security company, DGP 3082.
• You stay in control from your phone. Arm, disarm, check the camera detectors and read the event log from Manchester, Marbella or the departure lounge at Málaga airport.
• Installation is included and usually done within 24 to 48 hours of signing up, which is realistic to sort out before you fly back.
• English-speaking advisers, so you understand exactly what you're getting and exactly what happens the moment the alarm goes off.
• 55,000 homes and businesses protected across Spain, rated 4.6 out of 5 by more than 3,000 verified customers.

Torremolinos street by street: where the risk really sits

We've fitted enough alarms here to know that a one-size-fits-all system doesn't work in Torremolinos. The town packs several very different worlds into a few square kilometres, all within ten minutes of Málaga airport, which is precisely why so many British owners chose it and precisely why an empty property here gets noticed.

This is what our technicians find on the ground:

• La Carihuela: the old fishing village turned promenade. Low-rise buildings and small apartment blocks a few metres from the beach bars, with terraces and ground-floor doors opening onto pedestrian streets that are busy until late and dead quiet at four in the morning. We concentrate on the entry points and the terrace, and on camera detectors that let the operator see who is there.
• Playamar and El Bajondillo: the towers and blocks along the seafront. A high proportion of holiday flats and second homes, communal doors used by dozens of people, and balconies that are easier to reach than they look from the beach. Door contacts, PIR detectors with camera and a siren the whole landing hears.
• Montemar: up the hill, detached villas, gated developments and gardens with a pool. The house itself is usually well built; the weak point is the plot. Detection at the boundary and camera-equipped detectors inside, so we know the moment someone is over the wall rather than once they're in the lounge.
• Los Álamos: the eastern end, beside the airport and the beach clubs. A neighbourhood that fills up in summer and empties in winter, with owners who fly in for long weekends. An alarm here has to be as easy to arm from the app on the way to the departure gate as it is from the keypad by the door.
• El Calvario and the town centre: long-established residents, a good many of them British and Irish retirees, in flats above the shops of Calle San Miguel and the streets around Plaza Costa del Sol. Lived in most of the year, which changes the risk: here we plan for the trip back to see the family, the hospital stay, the month at the grandchildren's.

Whichever of these is yours, the response is the same. An operator in our own Alarm Receiving Centre verifies the alert with image and sound, the Police are alerted the moment an intrusion is confirmed, and you hear from us straight away. We never hand the monitoring of your home in Torremolinos to a third-party firm.
