Security Help Guide is a free service that connects homeowners with local security companies and installers. We are not a security company, alarm dealer, or monitoring provider, and we do not sell, install, or monitor security systems.
Vet a security camera installation company before you hire. Confirm any state license your area requires, check insurance, and get an itemized quote in writing. Ask who owns and can access the footage, whether monitoring is optional or contract-bound, and what the warranty covers. Read independent reviews and compare two or three companies rather than signing on the first call.

Not necessarily. Many systems are self-monitored, you get the alerts yourself, at little or no monthly cost. Professional monitoring, commonly about $20 to $60 a month, adds a center that can dispatch help. We explain both so you can choose.
Yes. Whether you want a video doorbell, an outdoor camera system, a full alarm, or a mix, we connect you with local companies that handle your kind of job, for a home or a business.
