# How Much Does It Cost to Secure a Shop in Kenya?

Start with the weakest point, then layer cameras, alarm, lighting and power. Current prices are in the live grids below.

The safest home is the one where the plan works even when you are not there.

Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that.

**In this guide you will see:**

- Start with your biggest gap.
- Then add layers: cameras, alarm, lighting, UPS.
- Check live prices below; get a written quote for installation.

Quick answer

A secure shop is built in layers, and you can start small and add. The biggest gap first: for most shops that is a door and till camera kit, then an alarm with a siren and phone alert, then lighting, a UPS to keep it all running, and cash habits such as a drop safe. Prices change with the market, so see the live grids for current kit prices and ask for a written quote for installation.
