Alarm.com Monitoring & Automation
One app for your alarm, access control, and smart devices — backed by 24/7 professional monitoring.
The platform that ties every system together
We build our monitored systems on the Alarm.com platform, giving you a single app to arm/disarm your alarm, manage access control credentials, and control smart devices like locks, lights, and thermostats — whether you're home or across the country.
When an alarm is triggered, signals are sent to a monitoring center that can dispatch emergency responders, so your property is covered even when no one's there to see it happen. Note: most of the camera systems we install run on their own separate platform from Alarm.com — see the cameras page for how that app works.
- One login for alarm, access control, and smart devices
- 24/7 monitoring center that can dispatch a response
- Multi-site dashboards for businesses with more than one location
From a triggered sensor to a real response
Event
A sensor or panic button triggers a signal.
Verification
Monitoring staff review the signal details to help confirm what's happening before contacting you.
Contact
The monitoring center reaches you and/or your designated contacts.
Dispatch
Emergency responders are contacted if the situation calls for it.
More than an alarm — a control center for your property
Geo-fencing
Automatically arm the alarm, lock doors, or adjust the thermostat based on your phone's location leaving or approaching the property.
Smart locks & access
Lock, unlock, and issue temporary access codes remotely — useful for contractors, cleaners, or guests.
Smart lighting & thermostats
Rules-based automation — lights that turn on with motion after dark, thermostats that adjust when everyone's away.
Real-time alerts
Push notifications, texts, or emails for exactly the events you choose to be notified about — no more, no less.
The hub connecting your alarm, access, and gates
