Description of Work: alarm system repair: it never worked properly. The alarm would go off saying a door was open when it wasn't open or armed. After several attempts to get it repaired we gave up the service, but I don't what the provider service was.

The salesman was awesome. He came to the house twice, techs came to analyze. Very professional and responsive. The actual install was kinda crappy. the guys doing the job were nice and professional but it was a huge job and they only sent one guy in the morning. he worked all day with no lunch and finally at around 4pm they finally sent 3 more guys to help. the system was supposed to be hardwired and they definitely cut corners with hiding the wiring. my house was old but there were areas they couldve run the wire in the attic but instead tacked it along the corners of the walls..i guess they did the best they could with the time allotted but if they sent more guys in the beginning the job wouldve been done right..not shotty. the system works great and i get great customer service . the workers atcually rewired a couple doors without charging me too. overall price is kinda high
Description of Work: Install of entire alarm system. Wired everything, 4 Glass breaks, 2 key pads, 5 doors, 1 motion detector, 2 sirens, etc etc..all wired.

He never tried to sell me something that I did not need. My understanding is they are available at anytime for questions or problems with the system.

I said no to Brinks and the $500 plus 39.99 monitoring per month for a wireless system controlling 7 entry points plus motion etc. Called Dynamark. They are installing this week an identical wireless system for $199 plus 29.95 per month monitoring. I am glad Brinks had no wireless systems on their truck.
Description of Work: Brinks said they would install a wired alarm system for free and give me a $360 equipment credit if I signed a monitoring agreement for 2 years for 29.99. Man came on time but it was obvious he didn't want to run wires through the attic and gave me all the reasons I shouldn't do wired. They wanted $500 for a wireless system with 7 entry points plus motion and 2 key fobs. No equipment credit for wireless system and they wanted 39.95 a month for 2 years for monitoring. This was supposed to be a deal because I was a previous customer. I had explained in great detail about the 2 story townhouse over the phone when the appointment was set up.

I wanted to see how good their work was on my existing security system before I signed a Monitoring contract, so they refused to look at my Home Security system at all. They did say that they could fix my system, but would not come out until I greed to sign.

They did an excellent job. Everything was priced better than anybody else, and they ended up finding a problem during the installation, and they didn't charge extra for any extra time or services.

I CALLED BRINKS AND THEY WERE ABEL TO COME OUT AND FIX THE ALARM SYSTEM. I WAS VERY PLEASED WITH THEIR PRICE. THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAD WITH BRINKS IS THAT THEY CALLED A FEW TOO MANY TIMES WHEN I SHOWED INTEREST IN THEM INSTALLING A NEW SYSTEM ON ANOTHER PROPERTY. I TOLD THEM I WOULD CALL THEM WHEN I WAS READY. OTHER THAN THAT, OVERALL, I GIVE THEM AN A.
Description of Work: I HAD AN OLD ALARM SYSTEM THAT WASN'T WORKING PROPERLY AND DIDN'T WANT TO CALL THE ORIGINAL COMPANY THAT INSTALLED IT BECAUSE I WAS NOT IMPRESSED WITH THEM AT ALL.

As I am totally blind, finding equipment that is user-friendly is sometimes difficult. The representative not only found equipment that I could use, but took additional time to explain all features so that I could use the alarm independently by touch. I was very pleased and continue to be more than satisfied with the level of customer service to date. Cost is for installation.

At the end of the day, I got the best value from Brinks, and I'm a happy customer, though it was a bumpy ride. Two technicians came out to look at our system and couldn't get the wiring to work, so they quoted us over $600 for a wireless system. However, eventually a competent technician came out who got the wiring to work, so the price ended up being much lower. Nevertheless, we had to endure 4 to 5 visits from them to get it all working. The first time I made an appointment, they never showed up; but they were punctual for all of the subsequent appointments.
Description of Work: I wanted to get the existing security system operating again since the prior owners of the home had never used it.

Had them come out to give me an estimate, but they couldn't get the wiring to work. They quoted me over $1,000 to put in a wireless system. Brinks came out and got the wiring to work no problem. Whole system only ended up costing me about $100 from Brinks.

HORRENDOUS!!! Within the first month of service, the system broke and ADT can't come out and fix it. Two appointments have been cancelled without informing us. The Customer Relations Department does not return phone calls. We paid to have a home security system so we could feel safe in our home. We have now, $238 later, the same degree of security as we did before.
Description of Work: Installed home security system and contracted to maintain and monitor system.

I found that the monitor for the alarm was wired into my home telephone line. The phone company told me that this was not supposed to be done and that a separate wire should have been run for monitoring. The monthly fee for monitoring seems high and they want you to test the system every month. If an alarm goes off, they don't call to see if everything is ok if you turn off the alarm. I would rather have them call me to check because someone could have broken in and forced the occupants to turn off the alarm.
Description of Work: We had sensors installed and subscribed to the monitoring service. The sensors have batteries that have to be changed and these are very expensive.

BRINKS IS EASY TO WORK WITH. ANY CHANGES TO OUR ACCOUNT (CONTACT NUMBERS, BILLING, ETC). CAN ALL BE MANAGED THROUGH THEIR WEB SITE. THEY CAN EVEN AUTOMATICALLY BILL MY CREDIT CARD FOR MONTHLY MONITORING FEES. IT GIVES ME THE SECURITY I NEED FOR MY HOME WITHOUT HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT ONE MORE BILL TO PAY!

TWO GENTLEMEN SHOWED UP PROMPTLY FOR THEIR APPOINTMENT, GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE, AND ACTUALLY TALKED ME OUT OF SOME SERVICES I THOUGHT I NEEDED THAT THEY FELT I DIDN'T. THE INSTALLER SHOWED UPON TIME, PERFORMED THE INSTALLATION, CLEANED UP AFTER HIMSELF, AND SHOWED ME HOW TO USE THE SYSTEM. ONE OF THE SALES REP'S CONTACTED ME THE NEXT WEEK JUST TO FOLLOW UP AND MAKE SURE EVERYTHING WAS OKAY. EXCELLENT.

Description of Work: I had bought a security system from Brinks for my home a while back. Recently lightning has struck a power line and I needed my alarm repaired. So of course I called Brinks to see if they would fix the problem. I was denied service unless I signed up for a 1-year contract of service. When I had called the office to complain, they insisted on having some one else call me back and did not want to give me the phone number so I can take matters into my own hands. I am an attorney; I dont think that this company should be on Angies List.
