No alarm installer listed in Tankerness yet.

An alarm installer fits, services and monitors home and business security systems - intruder alarms, CCTV cameras, access control and smoke or flood detectors.

Wireless systems are easier to retrofit and don't require chasing into walls; wired systems are more reliable for larger properties or those expecting heavy use.

Insurers often want a NACOSS or SSAIB-approved installer for monitored systems if you want a discount on your home or commercial cover, so ask before commissioning the work.

Tankerness is a rural parish on the eastern side of the Orkney Mainland, a few miles east of Kirkwall across gently rolling farmland.

The area is characterised by open agricultural land, scattered farmsteads and a coastline of small bays and rocky shores facing the North Sea.

Tankerness House in Kirkwall, once the seat of the Baikie family who owned the estate, now houses Orkney Museum - though the parish itself remains a quiet, farming community.

The parish provides a peaceful contrast to nearby Kirkwall, with good road connections making it easy to reach the town's shops, schools and services.

Orkney is an archipelago of around 70 islands off the north coast of mainland Scotland, separated from Caithness by the Pentland Firth - one of the most powerful tidal races in Europe.

Of those 70 islands, roughly 20 are inhabited and most of the population of around 22,000 lives on the largest island, known simply as the Mainland, where the towns of Kirkwall and Stromness serve as the administrative and cultural centres.

Orkney's history stretches back over 5,000 years. The Heart of Neolithic Orkney - a UNESCO World Heritage Site comprising Skara Brae, Maeshowe, the Ring of Brodgar and the Stones of Stenness - represents some of the best-preserved prehistoric sites anywhere in northern Europe. The islands were under Norse rule for around 600 years and that Scandinavian heritage remains visible in place names, dialect and culture.

The islands are reached by ferry from Scrabster and Aberdeen and by air from Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen and Inverness. Orkney's economy is built on agriculture, fishing, renewable energy, whisky and tourism and the islands have a quality of life consistently rated among the highest in Scotland.

Orkney is at the forefront of marine renewable energy, home to the European Marine Energy Centre which tests tidal and wave power devices in the waters around the islands. The strong community life, low crime and dramatic landscape make Orkney one of the most distinctive and self-reliant places in Scotland.
