What actually protects a house

Four things decide whether a home security setup does anything while nobody's home. This one has all four together.

  • Monitored around the clock

    A staffed centre sees the alarm and calls emergency services, whether or not you picked up your phone.

    From under $20 a month

  • Covers the whole house

    Sensors on every door and window, motion coverage inside, and outdoor cameras on the approach.

    Indoor and outdoor equipment

  • Installed and tested for you

    A technician places every sensor and checks it works. Nothing depends on how your Saturday went.

    Installation included

  • Runs through your smart home

    Arms and disarms by voice, so it becomes part of the routine instead of another app you stop opening.

    Alexa and Google Assistant

All four, in one system, installed and monitored for you.
