Thank You!
A big “THANKS!” goes out everyone that returned our Customer Satisfaction Survey.  We are using your responses and comments to improve our services.  We’d also like to congratulate everyone chosen to receive a free month of monitoring because, in today’s economy, a little bit goes a long way. 

 Did You Know?

 

 Cellular Monitoring

Cellular alarm monitoring can transmit all of your home security signals.  It costs less and is more secure than using a standard telephone line.  If you aren’t going to be using a home phone line for anything other than your alarm monitoring, it would be a good idea to use cellular monitoring.  The cellular monitoring unit is about the size of your hand and sits above the control panel, and since it sends alarm signals wirelessly, there is no exterior phone line that can be cut to disable the alarm system.  Call for our current rates on cellular units and monitoring.  Note: Your alarm system cannot be monitored without a landline unless you have a cellular unit.

 

 Passwords

It is important that everyone who has authorized access to your alarm system knows the correct password.  This is the word that the monitoring station will ask you for when they call you after receiving a signal from the alarm.  If you do not know your password, please call our office with information to verify your identity and we will happily assist you.  Also remember to call us with any changes to your home, cell, work or emergency contact telephone numbers, as the monitoring company cannot contact you or anyone on your call list without proper working numbers.

 

 Monthly Alarm Testing

We recently had an understandably irate customer call our repair department because his house was burglarized, but the police were not dispatched to his house.  We discovered that the monitoring company had not received a communication signal from his alarm system in four months.  This customer also admitted that he had never tested his alarm system.  Regular alarm system testing ensures that the monitoring station is receiving signals that are being sent by your alarm system and may also detect problems in your system that can be quickly and easily resolved.  Because we know that it can be difficult to remember to test your alarm system, we can program your alarm system to automatically test monthly.  Automatic monthly testing is an additional $2 per month.  Call us for more information and to have your system programmed to automatically test.
