What's in a system

Protection on every door, window and room that matters.

Door & window sensors

Know the moment an entry point opens while the system is armed.

Motion & glass-break detectors

Catch intruders who get past the doors — without false alarms from pets or heat.

Keypads & app control

Arm and disarm at the keypad or from your phone, with a code for every user.

Panic & hold-up buttons

Silent alerts for registers, offices and reception desks.

Environmental sensors

Water leak, freeze and temperature alerts for server rooms, coolers and vacant buildings.

Smoke & CO for homes

Monitored smoke and carbon monoxide detectors on residential systems.

How monitoring works

Monitoring that can't be unplugged.

Many alarms still report over a phone line or internet connection that a burglar can cut in seconds. Every system we monitor sends signals over dedicated cellular with a static IP.

1. Alarm trips
A door, motion or glass-break sensor goes off while armed.
2. Signal over cellular
No phone line or internet needed to get the signal out.
3. Operators respond 24/7
Professional monitoring verifies the alarm and contacts you.
4. Help is sent
Police or fire are dispatched, and you get alerts on your phone.
Questions

Alarm & monitoring FAQ

Alarm panels we install & take over
DSC
2GIG
Alarm.com
Napco
Honeywell

Can you take over an alarm another company installed?

Often, yes. We work with DSC, 2GIG, Alarm.com, Napco and Honeywell panels and can switch your monitoring to us — or replace an old panel and reuse the sensors that still work.

Do I need a landline or internet?

No. Our systems communicate over dedicated cellular, so there's no landline to keep and no internet outage to worry about.

Can I control it from my phone?

Yes. Arm, disarm, check status and get alerts from the app, and manage user codes for employees or family.

Can the alarm work with my cameras and door access?

Yes. We tie alarms, cameras and access control together so you can see what set off an alarm and who was at the door.

Is your alarm still on a phone line?

We'll check your system and switch it to cellular monitoring.
