What our customers Say

I’ve worked extensively with Spectrum Security for many years and across a broad range of projects. Their ability to understand a clients requirements and adapt them when necessary is a quality not many companies have these days – couple that with a ‘can do’ mentality I would have no hesitation in recommending their company. We’ve worked on access control projects, door automation as well and supply/install of vehicular gates and operators.

Philip Bailes (Managing Director), Red Chilli Projects Ltd

“Spectrum Security Services have provided door automation to the Liverpool University Hospitals at Aintree, New Royal and Broadgreen since 2021 and although the environment and pressures within a hospital are often very challenging, Spectrum have always completed works within the agreed time and to the required standards, and I continue to consider them without hesitation for future projects.”

NHS

Thomas Creighton, NHS Liverpool

We have no problem in fully recommending Spectrum, we have used their services for a number of years and they are always punctual and do a great job, everything is always left clean and tidy and the lads all have clear and precise communication throughout any job we are working on. I highly recommend Pete and the team for all your electrical works – a highly skilled and truly reliable team.

RB Architectural Hardware

John Hornby, RB Architectural Hardware

We’ve been working with Peter and the crew at Spectrum Security Systems for well over 12 years, and it’s been nothing but a good experience. They’ve handled everything from CCTV, access control systems and automated gates to internet setups and TV aerials—and they always get it spot on.

What really stands out is their consistency. No matter the job—big or small—they show up on time, get stuck in, and finish with care and precision. You never feel like you’re chasing them or left wondering what’s going on. They’re proactive, reliable, and just really easy to work with.

Peter, in particular, brings a wealth of knowledge and is always happy to talk through the options to make sure things run smoothly. That kind of personal touch makes a huge difference on site, especially when schedules are tight and there’s lots going on.

We see them as an extension of our own team now. It’s rare to find trades you can trust so completely, but Spectrum Security Systems have earned that trust time and again. We’d gladly recommend them to anyone looking for dependable, professional service—without the hassle.
