Mark Paterson
Director
I took over as director of the company in February 2007 from my father, it has been an incredible journey so far, and there have been many testing times and many great times.
Above all I have enjoyed meeting lots of new and interesting people, and have taken great pride in being able to provide a friendly and efficient service which also gives the customer peace of mind.
I hope with this great team I will be able to grow the company and continue to provide the professional service which has been enjoyed by our customers since 1984.

Terry Lane
Founder
In Loving Memory of Terry Lane.
Terry founded Secure Homes after dedicating 30 years of his life to a distinguished career as an electronics engineer with Thorn EMI. His vision for the company was rooted in the core principles of professionalism, fairness in costs, and reliability, values that continue to guide Secure Homes to this day.
Terry’s vast experience laid the foundation for the company’s ongoing success. He firmly believed that staying true to these principles was the key to growth and building trust with customers.
Terry wasn’t just a great engineer, he was also a man of warmth and character. Always ready with a story to share and never one to turn down a good cup of tea, he brought a personal touch to everything he did.
Terry’s legacy lives on in the work we do and the values we uphold. He remains an irreplaceable part of Secure Homes, and his impact continues to inspire us every day.
