About the Business
Henry Gates & Co was founded as home-decorating merchants in 1939. Our company was very successful and was proclaimed one of the first Dulux merchants in London after the War. In 1975, Henry's son Martin assumed day-to-day responsibility for the business, Henry Gates & Son Ltd. He quickly diversified into a key-cutting service, which evolved into security locks provision. Martin enrolled as a member of the Master Locksmith Association, and from this point, continued to evolve and improve the business as technology moved forward.
In the early 1990s, Henry Gates & Son extended its service and provided intruder alarm installations. We continue to do so to the exacting standards of the Security Systems Alarm Inspection Board (SSAIB). In the last 20 years, as technology has developed, Henry Gates Security Systems specialised also in closed-circuit TV and access control. In 2004, Henry Gates & Son closed their last shop in London.

Brian recently fitted an alarm system for me. His price was brilliant and the work he did was second to none. He advised me on all aspects of my home security, including a monitored alarm and smoke alarms giving me a complete home and work integrated system. I cannot recommend Gates Security systems enough, more than anything Brian has given me peace of mind for my family and I.
I just wanted to say thank you for doing such a good job installing a new alarm in my home. I have to say that you made it easy for me, you were there when you said you would be, were courteous, clean and tidy, and gave me a full explanation on how to use the alarm. You were happy to give advice and help even when you received a call from me late one evening when my wife decided to show the children how the alarm worked and set it off and woke the whole street. I banned her from the keypad and she now uses the simple key fob to turn on and off, it could not be easier to use. I would not hesitate to recommend you to others.
Thank you very much for checking out my burglar alarm system recently and for upgrading the system. As you know I have not been very diligent about using the system because of the problems caused by having a cat and a dog. You came out promptly to have a look at the system and advised me to upgrade the sensors to PIR sensors which you promptly and efficiently fitted for me leaving me no mess to clear up when I returned from work. I would have no hesitation in recommending your company.
