On Mozome, providers set their own prices, and you see the price of a service before you book.

What affects the price

What you pay depends mostly on:

  • the type of system: alarm, cameras, intercom or smart locks
  • the number of devices, and how many need wiring
  • equipment, and whether it is included
  • access to roof spaces and walls for cabling
  • monitoring or app subscriptions after installation

What's included

Each provider describes what their service covers, and two services with the same name can cover different work. Ask whether the equipment is included or only the installation, and whether there are ongoing fees for monitoring or apps.
