Disconnections

To disconnect any Alarm Signaling Equipment (ASE), a building permit from a registered building surveyor is required. 

Your monitoring company will require a written request to disconnect and a copy of the permit.  This applies for both permanent and temporary disconnections. 

Examples of temporary disconnections are:

  • renovations to entire building protected by ASE
  • non-occupancy of building – ensure the site and/or building is made secure.

We suggest you advise your insurance company of any intended changes.
