Fixing our mechanical vehicle gates
1st Choice Security Systems were professional, insightful with choice and over all exceptionally helpful in resolving our mechanical gates issue. We are a busy school that needed the issue we were experiencing resolved rapidly and to a high standard. 1st Choice and the team delivered.
The door wouldn't close using either the remote or manual controls. The issue was with the sensor.
Impressed with the work carried out but not the invoicing and payment system!! I sent a cheque for the full amount on 24th June 2022 only to receive a letter in early July saying that I hadn't paid. I spent ages on the phone to my bank sorting out what would happen if I paid again and the original cheque was then presented for payment at a later date. This was sorted with the bank and when I phoned 1st Choice to tell them they told me that they hadn't yet paid the cheque in to their bank and they would be doing so the following Saturday!! Why send me the 'non payment' letter?
Repair of electric turnstile
Repair was done swiftly and the guys were very polite and professional
Installed New Driveway Gate
1st Choice installed a new set of driveway gates for me towards to the start of the month. Absolutely no faults and we love the gates. Really impressed with the team, everyone was extremely polite and helpful throughout, would recommend.
