First, we come to your La Porte home for a free consultation. No high-pressure sales pitch, just an honest assessment of what you need to feel secure. We'll examine your current setup and explain your options in plain English.
If you already have an alarm system, we can often modernize your existing equipment. Our licensed technician will inspect everything, replace outdated components, and add cellular communication so your system works reliably. The whole upgrade usually takes about an hour, and we test everything before leaving.
For new advanced security system installation, we bring everything needed and explain how each component works. You'll get hands-on training with your touchscreen panel and smartphone app. We don't consider the job done until you're completely comfortable arming, disarming, and monitoring your system from your phone.
Our three security systems plans are designed specifically for La Porte homeowners. Plan 1 works with your existing alarm system for just $17 monthly with professional monitoring. Plan 2 adds smartphone control and real-time alerts for $22. Plan 3 includes a complete modern system with 7-inch touchscreen, built-in camera, and smart sensors for $27.
Every plan includes 24/7 professional monitoring with cellular communication that works even during power outages. No contracts means you can cancel anytime without penalties. Local service means we're here when you need support, not routing you through a call center in another state.
La Porte residents especially value our glass break sensors that work reliably in our humid climate and motion detectors calibrated for homes with pets. Our systems integrate with smart locks, video doorbells, and smart lighting for complete home automation. Many customers save enough on homeowner's insurance premiums to offset their monthly monitoring costs.
Our monitoring starts at $17 per month with no contracts if you have an existing alarm system. We can modernize your current equipment with cellular communication and professional monitoring for a one-time setup fee of $139.
If you want smartphone app control with your existing system, monitoring is $22 monthly. A complete new system with 7-inch touchscreen hub, built-in camera, door sensors, motion detector, and glass break sensor costs $479 for equipment plus $27 monthly monitoring. Most La Porte homeowners find their insurance savings help offset the monthly cost, and you're never locked into long-term contracts like with national companies.
Yes, in most cases we can modernize your current alarm system instead of replacing everything. We'll inspect your existing door sensors, motion detectors, control panel, and wiring to determine what can be reused safely.
The main upgrade involves adding our cellular communicator so your system connects directly to our monitoring center without needing a landline. We replace any outdated components that might cause false alarms and can add smartphone app control if desired. This approach saves you money while giving you modern security features that work reliably in La Porte's coastal climate.
When your security system triggers an alarm, our monitoring center immediately verifies the alert and contacts La Porte Police Department within seconds. As a local company serving Harris County for over 15 years, we know the typical response times and work directly with local dispatch.
Police response depends on their current call volume, but having a verified alarm from our UL-certified monitoring center gets priority over unverified calls. Our cellular communication ensures the alarm signal reaches authorities even if phone or internet lines are cut, which is crucial during storms when La Porte sometimes loses traditional communication services.
Yes, our alarm systems include backup batteries that keep everything running during power outages. The main control panel has a rechargeable battery lasting 12-24 hours, and wireless sensors have their own long-life batteries.
Since we use cellular communication instead of relying on your internet or landline, your system stays connected to our monitoring center even when power's out. This is especially important in La Porte during hurricane season when extended outages are possible. You'll receive low battery warnings on your smartphone app well before backup power runs out, and we can replace batteries quickly as your local technicians.
Professional monitoring means our certified operators watch your alarm system around the clock from our UL-listed monitoring center. When any sensor triggers - whether from break-ins, smoke, carbon monoxide, or medical alerts - they immediately verify the situation and dispatch appropriate emergency services.
You receive instant push notifications on your smartphone whenever anything happens at your La Porte home. Our operators can help you disarm false alarms remotely or walk you through system adjustments over the phone. Since we're local to the Houston area, we understand your neighborhood and can provide context about your specific location that out-of-state monitoring centers simply can't match.
No, we don't require contracts for any of our security system monitoring plans. You can cancel anytime without penalties, early termination fees, or equipment buyout charges. Most national security companies lock customers into 3-5 year contracts, but we believe you should stay because you're satisfied with our service.
This no-contract approach works because we're locally owned and focused on building long-term relationships with La Porte homeowners. When you can leave anytime, we earn your business every month through excellent service, quick local support, and reliable monitoring. It's better for you and keeps us accountable to our community rather than corporate shareholders.
