Ajax Alarm for SMEs – A Professional Security System You Can Install in No Time
As a small business owner, you want to focus on running your business – not lose time on complex installations or alarm system maintenance.
That's why more and more companies are choosing Ajax, the award-winning wireless alarm system from Europe, known for its simplicity, reliability and smart technology.
In this article, you'll learn why Ajax is the ideal choice for businesses, shops, offices and warehouses, and how easy it is to put into service yourself or together with your installer.
Award-winning security technology from Europe
Ajax is no newcomer: the system is developed and manufactured in Ukraine and is now active in more than 130 countries.
The company has won dozens of international awards for design, innovation and security technology, including:
- iF Design Award
- Red Dot Product Design Award
- Security & Fire Excellence Award (UK)
- Expoprotection Award (FR)
- GIT Security Award (DE)
These awards underline that Ajax is among the very best, both technologically and in terms of design.
Installed in no time
One of the biggest advantages for small businesses: you can install Ajax incredibly quickly, without drilling or running cables.
- All components are wireless (battery-powered or mains-powered)
- Pairing is done in the Ajax Systems app: scan the QR code and you're done
- The control panel (Hub) automatically searches for all devices and connects them
- The system immediately tests the radio signal (Jeweller protocol) and the internet connection
- An entire building can be secured within a single afternoon – without installers on site for days. And all of that without a subscription!
Example of a basic setup:
- Ajax Hub 2 Plus – control panel with Ethernet, Wi-Fi and 4G. Keeps working even if your internet goes down!
- Ajax MotionProtect – wireless indoor motion detector
- Ajax DoorProtect – magnetic contact for doors and windows
- Ajax StreetSiren – wireless outdoor siren with strobe light
- Ajax KeyPad Plus – wireless keypad for staff
Every device is added to the Hub within minutes and shows up in the app.
Everything in one app: overview, control and notifications
The Ajax Security System app is the heart of the system. For small businesses, this means:
- Live status of all detectors, sensors and sirens
- Push notifications for intrusion, tampering, fire or faults
- Management of multiple users and permissions (e.g. staff access on weekdays only)
- Automated scenarios: e.g. lights on, doors locked and alarm armed at closing time
- Camera integration: view live footage the moment an alarm is triggered
So you don't need separate software, a central control cabinet or an expensive alarm monitoring contract – everything works clearly and intuitively in one app, on your smartphone or desktop. If it gives you extra peace of mind, you can still easily connect the system to an alarm receiving centre (ARC) via the app.
Smart technology for maximum reliability
Ajax uses several innovative technologies to ensure stability and security:
- Jeweller – encrypted wireless connection with a range of up to 2,000 m and jamming detection
- Wings – fast transmission of photo verification images during an alarm
- Hub redundancy – the Hub can use multiple internet connections (Ethernet, Wi-Fi, 4G)
- Grade 2 and Grade 3 certified – complies with the European EN 50131 standards
Even during a power cut, internet outage or sabotage attempt, the system stays active thanks to backup batteries and SIM cards. Ajax devices also do something clever: frequency hopping. This means the signal from a door contact can't be disrupted with a jammer either, because the device simply switches to the next frequency in the agreed algorithm.
Easy to expand as your business grows
Ajax grows with your business. You can easily add zones, reassign devices and activate new features in the app. Think of:
- Smoke detectors, CO and water leak sensors
- Access control via card readers and keypads
- Automatic gate control or lighting on detection
- Integration with security cameras and alarm receiving centres
New devices are simply paired via QR code, so you don't need complex reprogramming or cabling.
Want to detect intruders before they even reach your building? Then you can easily connect an external infrared barrier to your Ajax system – for example, a set such as the UMA AIR-BE150-L3 Triple Beam. You install these beam detectors along the property boundary or driveway and connect them via a wired NO/NC relay output to an Ajax Transmitter or MultiTransmitter. As soon as someone interrupts the infrared beams, the barrier sends a signal to the Ajax Hub and you instantly receive a notification in the app. This is an easy way to extend the wireless system with professional perimeter protection – without having to change the Ajax architecture.

You can install the system yourself or have it fitted by an installer, and then manage it entirely yourself through the app. No complicated wiring diagrams or cables – just maximum security, scalability and control.
With Ajax, you can count on an award-winning, future-proof security system that grows with your business. And we'll let you in on a secret: our own warehouse is also protected with Ajax, among other things!
