SMARTER HOME SECURITY
What Sets Palmetto Alarm Apart?
01
Skilled Professionals
Our installers are extremely skilled, with years of industry experience. All of our security is installed with precision, and discretely. We feel that privacy is important in the security industry, so we will never show up with a branded vehicle and uniformed technicians. Your comfort and safety is our main concern. Also going with a local dealer means that you have quick access to customer service, and no need to sit on hold for hours on an 800 number just for a service call. If you are paying for your security system it should work properly at all times.
02
Customized Home Security
We specifically try to avoid selling our equipment in bundled packages to various types of households and businesses. The reason for this being, that no two homes or businesses are the same. We believe that your security system should fit all of your areas of concern, and be efficient in keeping your home as safe as possible. Maybe you need an extra glass break, or a door contact? We will design a system specifically for you and your home or business, and will not leave any space of your home at risk.

Frequently Asked Questions?
Why should I choose s monitored system over a system I can monitor myself? There are DIY security systems out there available, but we strongly recommend looking into what you are paying for. A lot of the DIY wireless surveillance equipment as well as the door and window contacts are very prone to hacking. The doorbell and outdoor cameras have less intelligent analytics that do not "weed" out areas that will send you endless alerts. In addition most of the self monitoring companies also require a monthly fee for cloud storage, so it may be cheaper but you are still paying monthly for a system that doesn't alert the police if anything is to happen. Also ask yourself how available you are on a daily basis to check the notifications, or will you wake up at night if you were to be alerted?
Why should I choose a local service dealer? What are the advantages of a local company? There are many advantages to going with a local security dealer. While the local dealer has a partnership with the bigger monitoring companies that do what they do best; making sure the police or fire department is dispatched for any emergency. The corporate monitoring companies focus on quantity over quality and can not offer the same level of personalized customer service. Most of the corporate sales representatives are incentivized to sell the basic amount of equipment and charge extra for what may better fit your needs. At Palmetto Alarm we make sure every entrance to your home is protected, we can offer more equipment at no additional cost, and we get to choose what equipment we offer. Palmetto Alarm only offers Alarm.com equipment, which has far superior security measures to make sure your data is safe, and overall is better, more intelligent, cutting-edge equipment. Calling our local office for service is far easier than dealing with an 800 number and relying on corporate offices to attend to your needs. We are here for anything you may need, if a battery dies we will come change it for you for free.
Can I save on my homeowners insurance by getting a monitored alarm system? Yes, with most insurance companies, having a monitored alarm system will give you a discount on your homeowners insurance. This is only the case if you go with a professionally monitored system, and a reputable company. Your alarm company will need to send a certificate to your insurance company to prove every year that you are being monitored.
How does a monitored alarm system really protect my home or business? With a monitored alarm system, you are statistically far less likely to be broken into. Palmetto Alarm and our national affiliate ADT, "put our money where our mouth is." We are so sure of our products and monitoring service that if you were to be broken into, we will cover your deductible for your homeowners insurance.
