Our story
Built on experience.
Driven by responsibility.
Secure your property properly.
It is the principle behind our work.
It is the principle behind our work.
Darren Porter moved into the security industry in 1996 after serving in the Royal Marines. In February 1998, he founded the business that has grown into DP Security Group.
The equipment and technology have evolved over the years. Our purpose remains clear: help customers understand their risks and put practical protection in place.
Today, we design, install and support intruder alarms, CCTV and video doorbells for homes and small businesses. We also assess existing systems, advise on upgrades and offer maintenance to help keep installations working properly.
Our approach starts with a conversation. We want to understand your property, your concerns and how you use the building before recommending a solution.

What we stand for
The way we work matters
as much as what we install.
Choosing security should leave you feeling informed and confident. These are the principles that guide our recommendations and our work.
The right fit for you
A good system suits your building, routines and priorities. We recommend equipment and coverage with those needs in mind.
Care from start to finish
From planning and installation to handover and maintenance, we pay attention to the details that make your system practical to use.
Experience meets modern technology
Thoughtful choices.
Properly considered protection.
Technology is only part of the solution. Design, configuration, installation and everyday use all deserve attention.
Knowledge of the systems we install
DP Security Group is Ajax Superior certified. We work with Ajax alarm and video doorbell solutions and Texecom Premier Elite systems, selecting suitable options for new installations and compatible upgrades.
Connected security, carefully configured
App access and remote viewing should be set up with care. We consider user access, connectivity and secure configuration as part of a connected installation, and explain the features available on your chosen system.
Coverage with a clear purpose
We plan detector and camera positions around the areas that matter to you. Useful views, suitable detection and practical installation routes help turn a collection of devices into a considered security system.
Confidence beyond installation day
We test the agreed installation, demonstrate everyday use and help with app setup where applicable. We also explain servicing and support options, including remote diagnostics on supported systems.
