You get home from work, check your phone, and see everything's secure. No break-ins, no false alarms, no wondering if your system actually works when it matters. That's what happens when you have a security system that's properly installed and monitored by people who know what they're doing.
Your insurance company notices too. Most homeowners save up to 20% on their premiums with professional monitoring. But the real value isn't the money you save—it's never having to wonder if your family is safe when you're not home.
With cellular monitoring, your system works even when the power goes out or phone lines get cut. Real protection means backup plans for the backup plans.
Choose the security solution that fits your needs. All plans include 24/7 professional monitoring and local Houston-area support.

First, we come to your home and actually look at what you need. Not every house is the same, and cookie-cutter solutions don't work for real security. We identify vulnerable entry points, optimal sensor placement, and integration possibilities with any existing equipment.
Installation happens fast but right. Our technicians test every sensor, every connection, every backup system before they leave. You'll know how to use everything, and we'll make sure you're comfortable with the system before we consider the job done.
Monitoring starts immediately through our cellular connection. No waiting periods, no setup fees you didn't expect. Your system talks directly to our monitoring center, and we know within seconds if something's wrong at your house.
Plan 1 works with your existing system for $17/month. If you already have sensors and a panel, we can modernize it with cellular monitoring and professional oversight. One-time setup is $139, and you're protected without replacing equipment that still works.
Plan 2 adds smartphone control for $22/month. Arm and disarm from anywhere, get real-time alerts, and monitor your home remotely. Same reliable monitoring, more convenience.
Plan 3 gives you a complete modern system for $27/month. New touchscreen panel, door sensors, motion detector, glass break sensor, built-in camera, and full mobile app control. Equipment package is $479 one-time, then $27 monthly for monitoring.
Every plan includes 24/7 professional monitoring, cellular communication, and no contracts. Cancel anytime, though most customers stick around because the service actually works.
Yes, and this is one of our most popular services. Most existing systems can be upgraded with modern cellular monitoring and smartphone control without replacing all your sensors and wiring.
We inspect your current equipment first. If your sensors, control panel, and wiring are in good condition, we can modernize the system for a fraction of what complete replacement costs. You get professional 24/7 monitoring, cellular backup, and often smartphone control using the equipment you already have.
The inspection and setup fee is $139, then $17 or $22 monthly depending on whether you want app control. No contracts, no surprises, and you're protected without the expense and hassle of starting over.
Most installations happen within 24-48 hours of your call, and we offer same-day service when possible. Customers regularly tell us we show up within an hour, even for non-emergency service calls.
Simple upgrades to existing systems often take just a few hours. Complete new installations with multiple sensors, cameras, and smart home integration typically take 4-6 hours, but we finish everything in one visit. No return trips unless you request additional equipment later.
We schedule installations around your availability, including evenings and weekends. The goal is convenience for you, not us. Once we start, we don't leave until everything works perfectly and you're comfortable using the system.
You call us directly, and we fix it. No phone trees, no outsourced call centers, no transferring between departments. You talk to people who know your system and can actually solve problems.
Many issues get resolved over the phone immediately. Our technicians walk you through troubleshooting steps and can often restore full functionality without a service visit. For problems that require hands-on attention, we typically arrive the same day.
Service calls for existing customers get priority scheduling. We've been doing this for 15 years in Houston, and we know most problems are simple fixes when you have the right parts and experience. Complex issues get the same attention, but they're rare with properly installed systems.
Professional monitoring is what makes your security system actually protect your home instead of just making noise. Without monitoring, your alarm goes off, your neighbors might call police, and maybe someone responds in time to help.
With professional monitoring, trained operators receive your alarm signal in seconds, verify the emergency, and dispatch police or fire departments immediately. Response times improve dramatically because authorities know the call is legitimate and have details about your specific situation.
Cellular monitoring works even when power goes out or phone lines get cut. Self-monitoring through apps sounds convenient, but it fails when you're in meetings, sleeping, traveling, or anywhere without reliable cell service. Professional monitoring never takes a day off.
Our monitoring starts at $17 monthly for existing systems, $22 monthly with smartphone control, or $27 monthly for complete new systems. No contracts, no hidden fees, no annual increases that surprise you later.
Most companies charge $50-70 monthly for comparable service and lock you into long-term contracts. We keep costs low because we're local, family-owned, and don't have the overhead of national corporations. Lower costs don't mean lower quality—we use the same professional monitoring equipment as the big companies.
Equipment costs are separate and upfront. Existing system upgrades cost $139 for setup. New complete systems cost $479 for equipment. No leasing fees, no equipment rental charges, no surprise bills months later when you've forgotten what you agreed to.
We actually show up when you call. National companies subcontract installation and service to whoever bids lowest in your area. You never know who's coming to your house or whether they know what they're doing.
We've been protecting Houston homes for 15 years. Same owners, same technicians, same commitment to doing things right. When you call, you talk to people who installed your system and know your situation. No explaining your problem to three different people who've never seen your house.
Local service means faster response times, better customer relationships, and accountability you can't get from call centers in other states. We live and work in the same communities we protect. Your neighbors are our neighbors, and reputation matters when everyone knows where to find you.
