Independent guide
By Linus Palmqvist, Head of Operations Reviewed by Simon Nilsson Last reviewed The oldest of the six and the only one still independent, running from Vizcaya since 1986. It sits in the middle on cost and uses Jablotron equipment. Ask for the written terms early, because SEGURMA does not publish them the way the big chains do.
The long-established independent of the six, and the one to ask for written terms up front.
The facts worth knowing before you talk to them, and the ones you can check yourself.
Based in Loiu, in Vizcaya. The only one of the six not owned by a larger group.
An introductory rate for the first year, then a standard one. Ask for both figures.
Registered for running an alarm receiving centre, not renting space in one.
Video verification and jamming detection, on a wired and mobile connection.
Get the minimum term, the notice period and the exit basis in writing before you sign.
Public replies on 92% of their negative reviews, which is the highest rate of the six.
The name that should appear on your contract. Registered as DGP 3082.
Go to SEGURMA yourself, or let us handle the Spanish side. Both work.
Free, and you are not committed to SEGURMA.
A smaller company usually means a more direct conversation. Use it to settle these three.
Ask for both in the same written reply, along with the renewal date. These are the terms that decide how easily you can leave.
Ask whether the kit is sold to you or supplied for the length of the contract, and what happens to it if you move.
The opening rate runs for the first year, then moves to the standard one. Ask for both figures and the date they change.
This is a local independent serving a Spanish market, so plan on Spanish throughout and let us cover the gap.
Sales, support and documentation run in Spanish. That is normal for an independent of this size.
No company in this market promises an English-speaking operator when an alarm goes off. Plan on that conversation being in Spanish.
Spanish, like every alarm contract here. That is the part we do with you.
Worth reading a few yourself rather than going on the number alone.
735 reviews. 85% five star, 12% one star. Checked 25 July 2026.
Far fewer reviews than the national chains, so each one moves the score more. The company replies to 92% of the negative ones, which is the highest rate of the six.

Send it over. We will read it in English, ask for anything missing, and compare it against the rest of the market.
Compare your options in EnglishWe earn a commission if you set up an alarm through us. It does not change what is on this page. We cannot arrange every company we write about. The comparison is ordered alphabetically, not by what we earn. If a company we cannot arrange suits you better, we will say so.

Head of Operations at Settlewell
Linus moved from Sweden to Málaga in 2021 and set his own home up here, so most of this he has already done the hard way once. Before Settlewell he spent years at Workwide, the cross-border recruiter that has helped over 10,000 people into jobs abroad, latterly as its Head of Recruitment and Operations. He speaks Spanish, lives in Málaga with his partner, and spends his days on the phone to Spanish providers.
Company identity, registration and monitoring-centre status come from the national register of security companies. The rules on installation, verification and police notification come from Spanish law. Review figures are a dated snapshot from one named platform.
