Competitor Match Guarantee
We know the big home security companies’ “free security system” packages are appealing. ADT, Brinks, Protection 1, Vivint: they have all perfected the “free” offer.
Security Alarm is happy to match the competitor’s offer, but we’re going to be transparent about the offer and tell you its limits too. Many of the “free” or $99 install offers provided by national companies drastically limit your security coverage and ability to protect your home.
The competitors offer only includes the following:
- Infrared motion sensor
- IDigital keypad
- IInterior siren
- IControl panel
- ILawn sign and window decals
- IFront and Back Door Sensors
A custom-designed solution by Security Alarm may include:
- Touch Screen Keypads
- Cellular/Wireless
- Wireless Keyfobs
- Window Protection
- Door Sensors
- Motion Detection
- Fire Protection
- CO Protection
- Water Bug Sensors
- Temperature Sensors
- Door Locks
- Outdoor Protection
- Hi-Def Video
- Remote Control Video
- 24/7 Professional Monitoring
With an offer that doesn’t limit your coverage and equipment that’s easy to install, your home’s security is in good hands with Security Alarm.
No Long-Term, Multi-Year Contracts (unless it’s what YOU request)
National Alarm companies work very similar to cell phone companies. They “give” you a phone, charge you a sizeable monthly fee, and lock you into a long-term agreement.
You get a “free” phone but it’s not really free, you just pay more per month and for longer with a multi- year contract. They keep you locked in for years and you end up paying WAY more year after year than you ever would have if you would have just paid for your “free” phone up front.
With Security Alarm, you don’t have to worry about being locked into a long-term contract. Our service contracts are 1-year long, and even then, we won’t make you stay if you’re unsatisfied.

In addition to our comprehensive, customizable security options, we also provide DIY home security systems. These systems include:
- Controller / Keypad

- Motion Sensor
- Cellular Communicator
