A professionally installed home alarm system in Brisbane starts at $1,950 including GST, standard alarm packages sit between $2,629 and $2,815, and a four-camera security camera system starts at $3,450. This guide covers what each price includes and the variables that move the numbers. Prices vary between installers, so rather than quote vague ranges, the pricing below is Alltronic’s actual pricing, published as a Brisbane baseline you can compare against. All figures include GST.
Our entry-level system is an Ajax wireless alarm: the Ajax hub, an internal and an external siren, and three wireless detectors, installed and programmed for $1,950. There is no keypad in this package; the system is armed and controlled from the Ajax app, which is how most owners prefer to run a modern alarm. The hub communicates over your internet connection, with the option to upgrade to 4G communication so the app connection does not depend on the home’s internet.
Most Brisbane homes land between the entry system and a fully custom design, on one of two packages. The difference between the $1,950 entry system and the $2,629 package is a fourth detector and the TouchScreen code pad; both are installed, programmed and handed over the same way. The Bosch Solution 6000 package is the hardwired alternative.

More detectors, two-storey construction and back to base monitoring change the price, and your quote is fixed before any work begins.
A comprehensive system, using internal and external detection, generally comes in around the $4,000 range. This tier is genuinely variable, because the inclusions, options and equipment differ with every home. Systems at this level are custom designed for the home and the people living in it: how the household moves through the house, what needs protecting, and where detection matters most. That design comes from decades of hands-on experience, and it is where the value of a professional installer shows. The options and platforms behind these prices are covered on our home alarm systems page.
The variables below drive the final figure. Your estimator works through each of them for your property, and the quote is fixed before any work begins.
A professionally installed four-camera system starts at $3,450 including GST for a Uniview system, $3,550 for Dahua, and $4,470 for Ajax with on-camera AI detection. Camera count, camera types and mounting positions move the price, and per-camera upgrades such as active deterrence are priced per unit. Our security camera installation cost guide breaks each package down the same way this page does for alarms.
Most people asking about security system cost mean the whole setup: alarm and cameras together, sometimes with a video intercom at the front door. Combined systems are scoped as one job and quoted as one fixed figure, with installation, programming, commissioning and handover training inside it. There is no separate installation fee. From-prices for single-storey homes, all including GST:
Two-storey and larger properties follow the same fixed-price process, quoted at assessment.
Ongoing cost depends on one decision: self monitored or back to base. Self monitoring through the app carries no ongoing fee; the system reports to your phones and you act on the alerts. Back to base monitoring connects the system to a 24/7 A1 Grade Australian control room and is billed as a quarterly service. Our alarm monitoring page covers the options, and you can move between them as your needs change.
Installation and programming by our licensed technicians, the system tested, the app set up on your phones, and a walkthrough so you know how to use it. Every figure on this page includes GST. If cameras are part of your plan, our security cameras page covers what drives their pricing and shows real day and night footage from all three camera brands side by side.
A basic professionally installed home alarm system costs $1,950 including GST in Brisbane: an Ajax hub, internal and external sirens, and three wireless detectors, controlled from the app. The next step up is a $2,629 package that adds a fourth detector and a TouchScreen code pad.
Usually, at installation. A wireless system avoids cabling labour, which is why our entry system is wireless. Over the system’s life the gap narrows: wireless detectors need battery changes, hardwired ones do not. Both protect equally well when specified properly.
For most households, no. The app arms, disarms and monitors the system from anywhere, and most owners never miss a keypad. A code pad can always be added, which is part of the step up from the entry system to the four-detector package.
It depends who should act when the alarm triggers. Self monitoring sends every event to your phones and costs nothing ongoing. Back to base monitoring puts a 24/7 control room behind the system, billed quarterly, and some insurers ask for it. You can start self monitored and add back to base later.
No. Every price on this page includes installation, programming, testing and handover training by our licensed technicians. The security system installation cost is inside the quoted figure, and the quote is fixed before any work begins.
A professionally installed four-camera system starts at $3,450 including GST, with Dahua at $3,550 and Ajax with on-camera AI at $4,470. Camera count and coverage move the price, and our camera cost guide breaks the packages down.
Because the systems are different sizes doing different jobs. $1,950 covers three detectors protecting the main entries of a typical home. $4,000 plus buys internal and external detection custom designed across the whole property. The packages in between are where most homes land, and every tier is quoted as a fixed price for your specific property.
