Why Choose a SmarTrack S5 in Loughton for Your Vehicle Security?

The SmarTrack S5 is not just a tracker; it’s a comprehensive security solution designed to protect your vehicle from modern theft techniques. Here’s what makes it an essential choice:

Advanced Tracking Capabilities: With real-time GPS tracking, you’ll always know your vehicle’s precise location.
Automatic Driver Recognition (ADR): This intelligent feature identifies authorized drivers. If your car is moved without the unique ADR tag, an immediate alert is sent to a 24/7 monitoring center . This is crucial for preventing “keyless” theft.
24/7 Monitoring and Rapid Response: SmarTrack systems are constantly monitored by a dedicated control center. In the event of a suspected theft, they can liaise directly with the police to recover your vehicle swiftly .
Remote Engine Immobilisation: Should your vehicle be stolen, the monitoring center has the ability to remotely immobilise it, preventing thieves from restarting the engine and aiding in recovery .
Thatcham S5 Approved: The SmarTrack S5 holds the prestigious Thatcham S5 approval, meaning it meets the highest industry standards for vehicle security. This approval is often required by insurance companies and can even lead to reduced insurance premiums .

General Features

Multiple Tracking Technologies

Beyond GPS, we employ diverse technologies to track and locate stolen vehicles, ensuring comprehensive recovery. Our system doesn't solely depend on GPS, enhancing accuracy and reliability in theft situations. This multi-faceted approach significantly improves the chances of successful vehicle retrieval, providing superior security and peace of mind for our customers.

Battery & Anti-Tamper Monitoring

All SmarTrack devices feature an in-built battery backup, activating if the vehicle battery or main power is disconnected. This triggers an immediate alert to the Global Telemetrics Secure Control Centre, ensuring continuous monitoring and rapid response in case of tampering or power loss, enhancing vehicle security.

Movement Alerts

If your vehicle is moved without the ignition engaged, our Secure Control Centre will immediately contact you. This swift action confirms the vehicle's safety or alerts you to potential unauthorised movement, providing rapid peace of mind and enhanced security against theft.

Great, fast and professional service. Would use again and highly recommend.

Thank you!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had a Hikvision G40 dash camera installed by Safe & Sound on 9th of September 2026. Unfortunately, my experience has been extremely disappointing.
When I purchased the camera, I specifically paid for two 128GB memory cards. However, when I checked the camera a few days later, I discovered that two 64GB cards had been installed instead, without informing me. I also found that the locking screw for the memory card cover was missing, and the required CCTV warning sticker/sign had not been installed.
I raised a complaint on 14th of September and was told that an engineer would attend between 09:00 - 10:00 on 16th of September 2026. The engineer did not arrive. After further discussion and considerable inconvenience, a representative from the camera supply company attended the following day and installed the correct memory cards.
If I had not checked the camera myself, I could have gone months or even years without knowing that I had paid for 128GB cards but received 64GB cards. In my view, this was extremely irresponsible and unprofessional.
I am aware that many customers have left 5-star reviews, but I can only review my own experience. Unfortunately, based on what happened to me, I am giving Safe & Sound 1 star and I would not use amd recommend their services again.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. First time using Safe and Sound Essex and I’m really pleased with the service. I had a new Kenwood touchscreen head unit with wireless Android Auto and a reversing camera fitted.

Communication was prompt, friendly and helpful from my initial enquiry, when I asked for recommendations and different equipment options and prices, right through to the installation. Everything was fitted neatly and professionally, and I was shown how everything worked. The installer also helped me make sure my phone was connected before leaving site.

Really pleased with the end result and the whole experience was straightforward and hassle-free. I’d happily use Safe and Sound again and would definitely recommend them.
