Insurance approved?



We are a member of the NZSA. However that does not mean we agree with the current "Star Rating" system, or how the NZSA is run. The current standards for alarms and immobilisers are in our opinion out of date and compromised.

The NZSA (New Zealand Security Association) website contains a list of certified installers. NZSA Installers also carry a photo ID badge and will provide you with a certificate to show your insurance company. Having said that (in our opinion) the tests to become a NZSA approved installer are pathetically easy to pass. We are pushing to improve things!!! Read more here...

If you require an NZSA approved installer then you can search for them on this link.

All of our insurance approved alarms meet with AS/NZS certification or Thatcham standards which not only comply with the requirements for NZ insurance approval but exceed them offering you a far higher level of protection.

Note: Thatcham standards are not only recognised by the NZSA but they exceed them. For example Thatcham require Immobilisers to have an attack proof security housing.

The NZSA will only list product from distributors who pay them an annual fee, so if you can't find a system on the NZSA website this does not mean it won't meet with the standard required for insurance certification. It simply suggest that the distributor has reasons why they do not wish to be a member of a the NZSA!
