The owner of Home Guard Alarms Mr Nick Parker has been installing and servicing alarm systems for 31 years, having learned his skills from some of the best Alarm engineers in the industry.

Many thanks to late George Dennis from Garlinge near Margate who very kindly recommended me to a well known Margate alarm company for an apprenticeship at 17 years old and I haven’t looked back since. This was in 1984 when Burglar alarms were still in their infancy being operated with keys and global tampers, window foil on shop windows and tube and batten frames-those were the days.
Nick teamed up with George Dennis, Paul Golds, and Mark Smith, and installed many house and commercial alarm systems including the old Hover port at Pegwell Bay near Ramsgate which was a very interesting place to explore as it was empty and derelict when we installed the alarm.

The old Dreamland Cinema in Margate, The Tudor House in Margate, Lexterten Furniture, pysons road, Broadstairs-long since gone, are all alarm installations the Nick installed with Paul and Mark. .

After his apprenticeship Nick moved to another very well known Birchington company where he progressed and used his wealth of experience to help the Birchington company gain NSCIA approval.

Fast forward to today and Nick has a huge wealth of experience, both on the installation side, servicing and fault finding. 31 years in the industry and enjoying every day.

Nick says “I love electronics, very few people are lucky enough to go to work and enjoy what they do”.

I have seen so many alarm companies come and go over the years. Most go because they have no experience whatsoever and think Alarms is an easy career and have been very badly managed. The industry is far from that. It has taken me 31 years and I am still learning,

I consider myself to be one of the best engineers in the industry, Very few can do what i can and have the knowledge to resolve the issues that i come across on a weekly basis.
