Commercial intrusion alarm installation and cabling for designated doors, zones, and devices.
Request a site survey
What the work can include
- Door contacts and motion detection for the approved coverage areas
- Panel, keypad and device wiring coordinated with site operations
- Zone-by-zone checks and notification testing coordinated with the monitoring provider
Plan around how people use the building
A retail floor, a loading dock and a stockroom may need different zones or arming schedules. Review which staff enter first or leave last, where deliveries take place and who receives notifications. On an upgrade, record the existing panel, devices and monitoring arrangement before deciding what can stay.
Plan the installation
List the protected areas, existing equipment, operating hours, and the monitoring arrangements.
Testing and handoff
Review normal arming, disarming, and notification behavior with the authorized site team.
Frequently asked questions
Can we keep the existing monitoring provider?
Share the panel model and provider requirements so compatibility can be reviewed.
Can different parts of the building arm at different times?
A system that supports partitions can often arm areas separately. Check that the panel and monitoring setup support the schedules your teams need.
Does the installation quote include monthly monitoring?
Installation and monitoring are separate items unless the quote explicitly includes both. Ask who provides monitoring, what signals are handled and who gets contacted.
How is an alarm different from a camera system?
An intrusion alarm signals activity from devices such as door contacts and motion detectors. Cameras provide a view and recordings for review. Some sites use both, with separate requirements for each.
What should we check before handoff?
Confirm each zone by name, review authorized user operation and verify agreed test signals with the monitoring provider if monitoring is in scope.
