Your phone buzzes the second a door opens when it shouldn't. You're not lying in bed wondering if that sound was nothing. You're not checking your camera feed every hour when you're out of town.
Professional monitors verify the threat and contact police faster than you could if you were standing there. That's the difference between hoping your home is secure and knowing it is.
Most homeowners around Golfcrest already have some kind of system installed. The problem is it's not monitored, or it's outdated, or they don't trust it anymore. You can often activate what's already there without replacing everything. That saves you time and a few thousand dollars.
Choose the security solution that fits your needs. All plans include 24/7 professional monitoring and local Houston-area support.
Over 700 homes and businesses across Houston trust us with their security. We're not a national chain with a call center in another state. We're licensed, insured, and based right here in Harris County.
When you call, you talk to someone who knows your neighborhood. Someone who understands that Golfcrest sits in a city where 1 in 17 residents becomes a victim of crime each year. Someone who's installed systems on your street and knows what works.
We've earned a BBB A+ rating, the Angie's List Super Service Award, and recognition from Home Advisor. But what matters more is that our customers describe us as responsive, accessible, and actually helpful when something goes wrong.

You call or reach out online. We schedule a time that works for you, usually within 24 to 48 hours. In many cases, we can get there the same day.
We walk through your home and talk about what you're concerned about. Front door? Back windows? Garage? We look at what you already have installed and whether it makes sense to use it or start fresh.
Then we design a customizable security system based on your layout and your priorities. Motion detectors, video doorbells, smart locks, cameras—whatever gives you coverage where you need it. We install everything, test it with you there, and show you how to control it from your phone.
Once it's live, our monitoring team watches it around the clock. If something triggers, they verify it's real and dispatch help immediately. You're not dealing with false alarms or figuring out what to do next. It's handled.
Every system includes professional installation, 24/7 monitoring, and mobile access. You control locks, lights, cameras, and alarms from one app. No contracts. No surprises.
You can add smart home integration—voice control through Alexa or Google, automated lighting that turns on when motion is detected, smart locks you can control remotely. It all connects so you're not juggling five different apps to check on your house.
Houston recorded over 20,000 burglaries in 2022. Golfcrest and the surrounding Bellfort and Reveille areas aren't immune. A monitored alarm cuts response time and increases the chance that police arrive while something can still be done. It also drops your homeowners insurance premium in most cases.
We service what we install. If you have an issue, we come out. If you need to adjust coverage or add a camera, we handle it. You're not calling a 1-800 number and waiting three days for a technician from another city.
Yes, in most cases. A lot of homes in Golfcrest already have hardwired systems from previous owners or older installations that just aren't active anymore.
We evaluate what's there, test the sensors and panel, and determine if it's compatible with modern monitoring. If it is, we connect it to our central station and get it running again. You skip the cost of a full replacement and still get 24/7 professional monitoring with mobile alerts.
If the system is too outdated or incompatible, we'll tell you straight up. But more often than not, we can work with what you have and save you a few thousand dollars in the process.
Our monitoring center gets the alert within seconds. A trained operator reviews the signal, checks your account details, and attempts to contact you immediately using your preferred method—call, text, or app notification.
If they can't reach you, or if the situation looks like a real threat, they dispatch police or emergency services right away. That entire process takes less than a minute in most cases.
Compare that to you waking up, checking your phone, figuring out what's happening, and then calling 911 yourself. Professional monitoring cuts that response time significantly and increases the chance that help arrives while it still matters.
No. We don't require long-term contracts for any of our monitoring plans. You're not locked in for three years hoping the service stays good.
You pay month to month. If you're not happy, you can cancel. That's it. We've found that when you treat people fairly and actually show up when they need help, they don't leave.
Most national companies push multi-year contracts because they know their service drops off after the sale. We're local, and we plan to be here long after your system is installed. Our reputation depends on it.
False alarms happen—pets, doors that didn't latch, user error. That's why our monitoring team verifies every alert before dispatching police.
When your alarm triggers, they check the signal type, review camera feeds if you have them, and try to contact you first. If it's clearly a false alarm, they note it and move on. No police dispatch, no fees.
Houston does charge for repeated false alarms after a certain number per year, but our verification process drastically reduces those. You're not getting fined because your dog walked past a motion sensor.
It depends on what you need. A basic system with a few door sensors, a motion detector, and monitoring starts around a few hundred dollars for equipment and installation.
If you want cameras, smart locks, glass break sensors, and full smart home integration, the price goes up. But we design the system around your budget and your priorities. You're not paying for coverage you don't need.
We give you a clear quote before we do anything. No hidden fees, no surprise charges after installation. And if you already have equipment we can use, that drops the cost even further. Most customers are surprised at how affordable it is compared to what they thought they'd pay.
Yes. Every system we install includes mobile app access. You can arm or disarm your system, lock or unlock doors, check camera feeds, and get instant alerts no matter where you are.
Traveling for work? You'll know the second your kids get home from school. Out of town for the weekend? You can check your front door camera from the airport. Forgot to lock up? You can do it from your phone.
The app also stores event history, so you can review what triggered an alert or see when someone came and went. It's full control from anywhere with an internet connection.
