Our Customers Say

Rated 5 Stars!“I upgraded from another local provider when a quoted equipment upgrade more than doubled in price on follow up!!! When my contract was almost fulfilled, I called Alarm Engineering after seeing sooo many glowing reviews everywhere I looked. Lee Smith was excellent, no pressure but very knowledgeable and thorough. I was able to get my upgraded service, new (and additional!) equipment, all for a fraction of what “that other” company was trying to sucker me into. Installation was a breeze and I’ve not had a single problem since. Very easy to use, I love the tech features, and am really happy to make this switch. Thank you, AE!”

Video is Burglar’s Kryptonite

“Makers of movies and TV shows have it all wrong”, says Walter T. Shaw, retired from the most infamous burglary ring in America. Rarely do thieves wear president-look alike masks, pantyhose or any face coverings at all to pull a job.  Many times, they don’t even wear gloves.

“Thieves are arrogant; they don’t think they’ll be caught. And they’re not the least bit worried that a neighbor will be able to get a good enough look to give a description to the cops,” Shaw says.

However, Shaw shares their Achilles’ heel:  “They don’t have the time — or in many cases the talent — to disable surveillance systems. And they don’t want video surveillance of them rummaging through your home winding up in the cops’ hands or worse, on the evening news for their own neighbor to finger them.”

Video monitoring is a crook’s kryptonite, so make sure you protect your home and business using video. Shaw says burglars don’t know where the video is being recorded, since many video solutions today offer secure, cloud-based recording (with no recorder in the home or business to destroy) they’re likely to pass right on by. The footage could be captured offsite, so the moment they enter the home, it’s too late. They’ve been caught on candid camera,” Shaw says. Check out these Criminals Guilty of Being Dumb.
