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.
Alarm and security-system installers in Texas are regulated by the Texas Department of Public Safety Private Security Program, which licenses the companies that sell, install, and monitor alarm systems. Texas licenses alarm companies, so ask for the state license number. Many Texas cities also require an alarm permit and charge for repeated false alarms. Wherever you are, confirm an installer meets the rule that applies before work begins, and ask how any monitored alarm should be registered locally.
