My townhome was broken into a few months ago so I finally decided I needed an alarm and saw the offer on Angie's List, which I really trust. David arrived on time, listened to my particular issues (my slider had been smashed), and I also have 2 small dogs so wanted to make sure they wouldn't trip the alarm. His work was very good and he thoroughly checked to make sure everything worked, plus gave me a couple extras at no cost.
Description of Work: Installed wireless alarm system in my townhome. Free installation, just a monthly charge.

This security system is competitive as far as price, and it offers some extras for free that cost extra from other providers. The local installer was superb. Punctual, polite, professional and informative. He answered questions from both me and my wife that were widely different in nature. So far, I am very happy.
Description of Work: Installed and tested security system, instructed us about its use.

Dave was most professional and did not try to encourage me to purchase more than what I needed. The price quoted on the phone was right on target with what I charged. He installed my alarm system, went over how it worked and cleaned up before he left. I feel much more secure now! I would highly recommend them.

The whole experience was very easy and smooth. From the first moment I contacted them to ask about the deal, the whole staff of Radio Alarms was very helpful. They called me back every time I left a message, and there was no waiting time in order for me to schedule the service. Once they arrived at my house, everything was even better. They took the time to explain everything about the system, they doubled check all the doors, windows and thoroughly tested the alarm system couple times. Once it was time to set up the passwords and account online (and on the app), they explained everything step by step. Overall I could not be more satisfied with the service provided, and would recommend this company to anyone.
Description of Work: I purchased the Big Deal on an alarm system, and Radio Alarms came to my home to review my old system and install the new one. They also gave me a full explanation on how the system works, helping me set it up and what to do in case of emergency.

The process went smoothly and much faster than we had anticipated.
Description of Work: We were only in town for 5 days. We contacted David on Tuesday and he came out and talked to us on Wednesday and quoted a price for an alarm system for our home that we have installed in 3 months. ( my husband thought we would wait for renovations to be completed). We actually needed the home to be monitored immediately for insurance purposes. He called David back late Wednesday and David had an installer at our house the next afternoon on Thursday who installed a system so we could get the alarm certificate for the insurance agent. David then came back on Friday and gave us a full tutorial on how to use the system. We still need additional equipment which will be installed after we finish renovating the home. David was great to deal with, prompt, attentive and also just fun to interact with! We would definitely recommend Radio Alarm.

Professionalism at it's peak. I have no qualms recommending Radio Alarms. If you need an alarm system, this is way better than ADT in my opinion.
Description of Work: I called Radio Alarms after I read about them on Angie's List. The experiance I had was great. He was on-time, early in fact. He finished my rather simple install in about one hour including training time. He was pleasant t and did a very clean professional job. The unit worked and after a couple of days we had a minor problem. David responded quickly and replaced the faulty contact. The system is great. Looks great and works real well.

First of all, the $100.00 was for optional items I asked for. If I had not asked, the installation would have been $0.00. All experiences from first call to installation was excellent. Courteous, prompt and responsive to questions. I highly recommend Radio Alarm to anyone interested in a home alarm system. This is the 3rd system I have had to install (not all in this house) and by far, Radio Alarm was the best company I ever worked with. I am very happy with the newly installed system and the entire service experience.
Description of Work: Removed old alarm panel and replaced/updated door and window sensors. (2000+ sq ft). It was a tough job as the old wiring was not working well.

It went great - I called and left a message Monday morning, and had a call back within the hour. He spent a good amount of time on the phone with me explaining the options. I told him we'd consider it. I talked with my wife, and we called right back. He scheduled at his first available, and his assistant Daniel came 15 minutes early and got started with checking through our old system that was no longer in use, and then David arrived right at the scheduled time. He told us he would be there for three hours, and that is what it was. System has operated perfectly. I forgot to set it yesterday, and did so while out right from my phone - really love it.
Description of Work: David was great in explaining all the product and service options over the phone, and then was extremely prompt in scheduling and installing the equipment. Due to our preference for additional features (I wanted motion detectors everywhere for when we aren't there), we chose some extra options, but there was zero pressure to do so and the price for extras was reasonable. David thoroughly explained the likely points of risk at our house. The price was more than fair, the installation very clean, and he was VERY thorough in explaining the system to us. Where I've had people explain things too quickly or too much detail, David did a nice job of explaining all aspects in an understandable manner. We chose the smartphone enabled alarm system, and its nice to be able to arm/disarm remotely, view and be notified as we choose (smartphone app/text messaging / email) of any system activity, and even be able to set up/remove through the web site additional users. It was a few dollars extra a month but well worth it. We plan on upgrading further later with the smartphone controllable deadbolt, but I'll review that separately once we do so. Best thing I can say is that I often recommend good providers to my friends, and no doubt I will be doing so for David.

As I had mentioned to Dave at the time of installation, we planned to replace our front door with hurricane impact French doors. He said he would come and re-install the front door alarm sensors. Although the permitting and ordering process delayed the installation of the new door for about two months, Dave came to the house within 48 hours of my calling him and re-installed the sensors as needed at no additional charge. He is a true professional.
Description of Work: Dave was extremely responsive in both answering my questions and installing the alarm service. He tested the existing alarm connections, installed the new panel, and explained the operations clearly. Everything was completed neatly and as promised.

We purchased an Angie's List Big Deal. It took multiple phone calls (at least 8 over almost 3 months) to get a visit set up. When the representative came out the $99 Big Deal was going to cost an extra $600 just to make out existing alarm system funtional on their system. We thought that was too much to spend. In addition, as the company is based on the East Coast of Florida and we live on the West Coast, he could not outline a plan for support for the system in our area.
Description of Work: Estimate given.

We first researched security companies, comparing products, services and costs. We chose Radio Alarms because we wanted a quality service run by a company/person who cares about customers and is competitive with larger companies. I first contacted David to discuss our needs and to get a feel for him as a home security expert. After speaking with him a few times we were confident that we were dealing with the right person, a professional who was trustworthy. David looked over the house during the renovation to get a feel for the space so when our appointment day came, he was fully prepared . The install went quickly and smoothly and was completed in about an hour. David thoroughly tested every component and made adjustments until he was satisfied. Then we were ready for our detailed "alarm school" tutorial. Within 45 minutes we were set up. The account was activated, messaging preferences were set, and we were comfortable using the system. Selecting a home security company is a "big deal" to us. David's calm demeanor and professional, friendly style put us at ease immediately. He is a pleasure to work with. What we like best is David's careful attention to detail. He took time to listen and assess what our concerns were, and then incorporated those issues into the security plan for our home. We highly recommend this company; David is the best for offering great solutions, personal and professional services. He does so without any pressure. Here is the icing on the cake: after the install we had a few other questions decided to call David - guess what? David responded quickly gave us reassurance that everything was fine. That's the type of company we wanted. We are fortunate that we found Radio Alarms on Angie's List. Thanks David!!
Description of Work: After a comprehensive on site evaluation, David installed a complete security system tailored to our needs. Since our home has a large perimeter with several points of entry David's concept was for the strategic placement of security devices, resulting in a sleek security plan that was simple in design. The system included motion sensors, contact sensors, remote key fob, a state of the art touch pad for the main system panel, and a monitoring service.

Before purchasing the coupon from the site, I called Radio Alarm and David informed me of the services provided by his company. I was very impressed with his professionalism and time spent on the phone with me. I purchased the cupond and arranged with him for installation date. David showed up on time, installed all the 8 alarm positions at home unless than 1 hour. We tested the system together and everything worked fine. Not only was a great experience but safe me 2000 from Comparable national alarm companies.
