"Wanted to keep up with the new consumer trend of doorbell cameras. Got one for our front door and motion sensors for our main rooms inside. No extra fees or anything weird like that. Straightforward and honest process with this ADT dealer partner."
"Dale was terrific he arrived on time, was prepared to go to work, on arrival. Picked up a few necessary items, I didn’t have. Started and finished the job, cleaned up. Left with a functioning Ring doorbell that was connected to hard wire. Very professional and thorough."
"Friendly. Answers phone calls immediately. Antonio called the day of the service to confirm appointment. He arrived on time. Installed 2 ceiling fans in a timely manner. Cost- effective. I would recommend and hire again"
"I recently had 1st Security install a system in my new house and so far have been very pleased with all aspects of the system, from the initial estimate to the installation to the functioning of the system itself. Jeremy did our initial estimate and provided us with a thorough explanation of the system. I already had done a significant amount of research comparing Alarm.com to ADT and some of the self-install options, but Jeremy was able to provide even more information and help me to understand better the pros and cons of each approach. Larry did our installation and also was very friendly and knowledgeable, explaining each step of the installation process and providing me with a tutorial at the end. My wife and I have had no issues with the system so far. It is very intuitive, and we have been able to customize it to fit our unique needs. I highly recommend considering 1st Security for anyone looking at installing, switching, or upgrading their security system."
"Self installed is the only option. System works fine for the most part though we have had problems with the motion sensor cameras. Not that I have anything against FrontPoint, but if I were replacing system, I would probably go with Simply Safe now that they have cameras."
The technician arrived on time - was very personable & knowledgeable. He installed the sensors on the locations that we wanted and made sure we knew how the system worked before he left. We previously had ADT installed and had it removed the next day - this system & installation is so much better! I felt completely safe in the home alone while my husband was in the hospital for 3 weeks.
"Price quoted on phone was not the attempted price charged after install. After discussion, that was worked out. Wall mount arm had banged against wall and chipped paint during install. Pilot holes were drilled in wall to locate stud. The holes were not even spackled when installer was preparing to leave. I was told that my Comcast mini cable box would be placed discreetly on the back of the TV. During installation it was taped to the wall with double sided tape. The tape failed and the box fell off the wall within an hour. There was communication with Denton about the issues but I have not heard anything since July 16th."
"Robert did the installation of my Ring doorbell professionally and showed me how it worked. Reasonable prices and great work. No complaints. Great job as my Ring is working perfectly."
