A security system is a set of equipment designed to send out alerts when a troubling situation arises. This could include a burglary, a fire, a medical emergency, an outbreak of CO gas, an unusually high or low temperature, or a flood. A system consists mostly of sensors and a control panel.

The cost of a home security system depends on many factors. It depends on what type of panel you use, what system accessories you use. You will also need to pay for monitoring service to go with the system. The cost of monitoring will depend on your plan.

A monitored alarm system works by sending out communication signals that alert others to system events. These alerts can be sent to a central monitoring station, directly to the end user, or both. In most cases, the signals will be sent through an IP connection or a cellular connection.

When a system is monitored, it means that the system is able to send outbound signals. Without monitoring service, an alarm system can only be used as a local noise maker. An unmonitored system will have no way of alerting off-site users to an alarm event, and it will be unable to request automatic emergency dispatch. That is why it is very important that any alarm system receives monitoring services.

Two of our top rated commercial grade security systems are the Honeywell Pro A7 plus and the 2GIG Edge panel. Both are state-of-the-art wireless security systems that offer all the features and capabilities one would expect out of a modern security panel. They include blue tooth disarming, Z-wave technology for home automation, and cellular communications. They are both great systems for DIY users that can be configured and shipped or can be professionally installed in our service area.
