Here's what actually matters: you get a notification the second something's wrong. Not five minutes later. Not when you check your phone. Right away.
That means if someone's at your door, trying a window, or triggering a motion sensor, you know immediately. And so does our monitoring team. We're already calling you and dispatching help if needed.
The system works whether you're at the office, picking up kids, or out of town. You control it from your phone. Arm it, disarm it, check cameras, lock doors. Everything's accessible remotely, and it integrates with the smart devices you already use. No separate apps for every piece of equipment.
Most people in Jersey Village aren't dealing with constant break-ins. But over 18,000 burglaries happened in Harris County this year, and most occurred during work hours when homes looked empty. A visible security system changes that calculation for anyone scoping out your street.
Choose the security solution that fits your needs. All plans include 24/7 professional monitoring and local Houston-area support.
We've installed security systems in over 700 Houston area homes and businesses since we started. We're a family-owned company, fully licensed and insured, and we've earned recognition like the Angie's List Super Service Award and Best of Home Advisor.
What that actually means for you: when you call, you're talking to someone local who knows Jersey Village and the surrounding area. We're not routing you through a call center in another state. Our team responds fast, usually within an hour, because we're right here.
The people who install your system are the same ones who'll help you if something needs adjustment later. You're not handed off to a different department or left figuring things out on your own.
From smart home security to 24/7 professional monitoring — discover the full range of solutions we offer to protect what matters most.

First, we come to your home and walk through it with you. You show us what you're concerned about—certain entry points, blind spots, areas you want covered. We're looking at how you actually use your space, not just running through a standard checklist.
Then we recommend a system based on what you need. That might include door and window sensors, motion detectors, cameras, video doorbells, smart locks, or smart lighting. If you already have smart home devices, we'll integrate them so everything works together through one app.
Installation usually happens the same day or within a few days, depending on your schedule. We mount the equipment, connect it to your network, test every sensor and camera, and show you how to use the system. You'll know how to arm it, disarm it, get notifications, and check your cameras before we leave.
After that, the system's monitored 24/7. If an alarm goes off, our monitoring team contacts you immediately and dispatches emergency services if you can't be reached or confirm there's a problem. You'll also get real-time alerts on your phone anytime a door opens, motion's detected, or a camera picks up activity.
Every system we install includes professional 24/7 monitoring. That's not optional or an add-on. If your alarm goes off, someone's responding immediately—not an automated system, actual people who contact you and send help if needed.
You get high-resolution cameras with cloud storage, so footage is accessible even if someone damages the equipment. Motion sensors adjust sensitivity based on your home's layout to reduce false alarms from pets or moving curtains. Door and window sensors cover every entry point you want protected.
Smart home integration means you can control your security system, locks, lights, and thermostat from the same app. Voice control works with Alexa or Google if you want it. And if you're already using smart devices, we connect them instead of making you replace what you have.
Installation includes all equipment setup, network connection, testing, and a full walkthrough of how everything works. We don't install it and leave. You'll know how to use every feature, and our team's available 24/7 if you have questions later. Jersey Village homeowners are investing an average of $400 for installation and around $40 monthly for monitoring, and our pricing stays competitive with that while using better equipment than most national chains.
Most installations happen the same day you call or within a few days, depending on your schedule. We're local, so we're not coordinating with technicians from across the region or waiting on corporate scheduling systems.
When you contact us, we'll set up a time to walk through your home and recommend a system. If you're ready to move forward and we have the equipment on hand, we can often install it that same visit. For larger systems or if you need time to think it over, we'll schedule installation at whatever time works for you.
The actual installation takes a few hours for most homes. We mount cameras, install sensors on doors and windows, set up the control panel, connect everything to your network, and test each component. Before we leave, you'll know how to arm and disarm the system, check cameras, and respond to alerts.
Yes. We integrate with most major smart home platforms, including Alexa, Google Home, smart locks, smart thermostats, and smart lighting. You won't need to replace what you already own or manage everything through separate apps.
The goal is to make your security system part of your existing setup, not create a second system you have to learn. If you're already using a smart lock or video doorbell, we'll connect it to your security system so you can control everything from one app.
Voice control works if you want it. You can arm your system, lock doors, or check camera feeds using voice commands through Alexa or Google. And if you add more smart devices later, we can integrate those too. The system's flexible enough to grow with whatever you end up using.
You get an immediate notification on your phone, and our 24/7 monitoring team is alerted at the same time. We'll try to contact you right away using the phone numbers you provided. If you confirm it's a false alarm, we'll stand down. If you don't answer or you confirm there's a problem, we dispatch police or emergency services to your home.
You can also check your cameras from your phone to see what triggered the alarm. If it's a door sensor, motion detector, or glass break sensor, you'll know exactly which one went off and can pull up the camera feed for that area.
Our monitoring team has all your emergency contacts and any special instructions you've provided, like gate codes or information about pets. We're trained to handle the situation quickly and get help to your home as fast as possible. Most Jersey Village residents are at work when break-ins happen, so this kind of immediate response matters.
Our monthly monitoring typically runs around $40, which is in line with what most Jersey Village homeowners pay for professional 24/7 monitoring. That covers around-the-clock monitoring by real people, immediate response to any alerts, emergency dispatch, and access to your system through the mobile app.
Some companies advertise cheaper monitoring but charge extra for things like camera access, smart home integration, or cellular backup if your internet goes down. We include those features in the base monitoring cost, so you're not surprised by add-on fees later.
Installation costs vary depending on how many cameras, sensors, and smart devices you want, but most systems run around $400 for equipment and setup. We'll give you an exact quote after walking through your home and understanding what you need. No pressure to add things you don't want, and we're upfront about all costs before any work starts.
Both. The visible presence of a security system—cameras, doorbell cameras, alarm company signs—makes your home a less appealing target. Studies show that homes without security systems are two to three times more likely to be broken into because criminals specifically look for unprotected properties.
If someone does try to break in, the alarm goes off immediately when they open a door or window or trigger a motion sensor. That loud alarm usually sends them running before they get inside or take anything. Even if they don't leave, you and our monitoring team are alerted within seconds, and police are on the way.
The average burglary loss in this area is over $2,300, and only about 2% of stolen property gets recovered. A security alarm system changes the math. It makes your home harder to target, catches intrusions immediately, and gets help to your home fast. For Jersey Village homeowners who are at work during the day when most break-ins happen, that layer of protection matters.
Yes. The mobile app gives you full control from anywhere. You can arm or disarm the system, lock or unlock smart locks, check camera feeds, adjust smart lighting, and review alerts. As long as you have cell service or WiFi, you can access everything.
This is especially useful if you're out of town and need to let someone into your home, like a dog sitter or contractor. You can unlock the door remotely, get a notification when they arrive, and watch them come and go on your cameras. Then lock everything back up when they leave.
You'll also get real-time notifications for any activity, so if a door opens or motion's detected while you're away, you know immediately. You can check the cameras to see what's happening and contact authorities if something looks wrong. The system works the same whether you're at the office, across town, or in another state.
