First, we come out and look at what you actually need. No high-pressure sales pitch—just an honest assessment of your home and existing equipment. Many times we can use what you already have and just upgrade the monitoring and controls.
If you need new equipment, we explain exactly what each piece does and why it matters for your specific situation. Door sensors go on main entry points, motion detectors cover key areas, and cameras focus on blind spots where someone might try to get in unnoticed.
Installation typically takes a few hours. We test everything twice, show you how the app works, and make sure you're comfortable with the system before we leave. Then our monitoring center takes over 24/7, ready to respond if anything triggers an alert.
Our $17 monthly plan works with your existing alarm system—we just add professional monitoring and cellular backup so you're not dependent on landlines. Perfect if you already have sensors and just need reliable monitoring.
The $22 plan adds smartphone control to your existing setup. Arm and disarm from anywhere, get real-time alerts, and check your system status while you're at work or traveling. Still no contracts, still uses your current equipment.
For $27 monthly, you get a complete modern system with touchscreen control, built-in camera, and smart home integration. This is for homeowners who want the latest technology with professional installation and ongoing support. In Jacinto City's climate, having equipment designed for Texas heat and humidity makes a real difference in reliability.
Yes, we specialize in upgrading existing systems without replacing everything. Most homes already have door and window sensors that work perfectly fine—they just need modern monitoring and cellular communication.
We'll inspect your current equipment and determine what can stay and what needs upgrading. Often we can keep your sensors and keypads while adding a new cellular communicator and smartphone app control. This saves you money while giving you professional monitoring and modern features.
The inspection costs $139 and includes setup of our monitoring service. If your existing system is too old or has compatibility issues, we'll recommend the most cost-effective upgrade path.
Our systems use cellular backup specifically for this reason. When your internet connection fails, the system automatically switches to cellular communication to reach our monitoring center.
This is crucial in Jacinto City because many break-ins happen during storms or power outages when internet service is unreliable. Criminals sometimes cut phone and internet lines before attempting entry, but cellular backup ensures your system stays connected.
The cellular communicator is included in all our monitoring plans at no extra cost. It works independently of your home's internet and doesn't slow down your WiFi or use your data plan.
Our monitoring center receives signals within seconds and immediately begins the response protocol. First, they attempt to contact you using your preferred contact method—usually your cell phone.
If they can't reach you within 60 seconds, or if you provide the duress code indicating you're in danger, they dispatch local authorities immediately. We work directly with Jacinto City police and provide them with your address, alarm type, and any special instructions you've given us.
The entire process from alarm trigger to police dispatch typically takes under three minutes. Our monitoring center operates 24/7 with backup power and redundant communications to ensure reliability even during severe weather.
No, all our monitoring plans are month-to-month with no long-term contracts. You can cancel anytime without penalties or termination fees.
We've found that customers stay with us because our service works, not because they're locked into a contract. After 15+ years in business and over 700 satisfied customers, we're confident in earning your loyalty through reliable service and fair pricing.
This flexibility is especially important if you're planning to move, renovate, or change your security needs. You're never stuck paying for service you don't want or can't use.
The app lets you arm and disarm your system from anywhere, receive instant notifications when sensors are triggered, and check the status of doors, windows, and motion detectors in real-time.
You can also view live camera feeds, review recorded footage, and receive photos when motion is detected. The app works on both iPhone and Android devices and sends push notifications for all security events.
For families, you can create separate user codes and app access for different family members. Parents can see when kids arrive home from school, and everyone gets notified if doors or windows are opened unexpectedly. The app also includes a panic button for emergency situations.
Camera installation costs depend on the number of cameras, type of system, and complexity of the installation. Most residential installations range from $500 to $1,500 for a complete system with 2-4 cameras.
We provide detailed quotes after assessing your property and understanding your specific security concerns. Factors like camera placement, wiring requirements, and integration with existing systems all affect the final cost.
Our cameras are designed for Texas weather conditions and include night vision, motion detection, and smartphone access. We handle all the technical setup including network configuration, cloud storage setup, and app installation so everything works seamlessly from day one.
