I've had a brief search and can't see anyone selling the 6 x V150H cells packaged in the same format that our alarms use, but the individual cells are available, so it shouldn't be too hard to make up an equivalent pack. I've previously used a model shop to put together custom packs like this, as some are used to assembling battery packs to power R/C models.

Unless of course there's room to install the cells in a differently packaged format? You would need to reuse your existing connector: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Varta-indus...ords=6%2Fv150h I reckon that this pack would be about 2mm deeper than the original, but the same width, and slightly shorter lengthways?
