Custom Security and Communication Systems, Inc. is a dynamic, locally owned and operated business. Its president, Norm Bauman, began learning the business at his father�s knee, assisting his dad with alarm installation since age ten. In the early 1980�s, Norm also worked for other security companies across New York State, gathering knowledge and honing his techniques. Seeing a need for reliable installation methods and more individualized customer service, he formed his own company, Custom Security Systems, in 1984.

At Amherst Alarm, Inc., we pride ourselves on being the best Security System company in the area. We've built an excellent reputation for customer satisfaction by providing quick estimates, a great attention to detail, and competitive pricing. Being a screened and approved professional gives you the peace of mind you need to allow us to give your home the attention it deserves. Call us today and let's get started!

"I have had a pretty negative experience with Amherst Alarm. Purchased a building that had an Amherst alarm system already installed, including smoke/fire and intrusion/motion. I signed a new contract with them to continue with the system/service. The system has since had multiple problems for which they have sent technicians to try to resolve. None of the problems were ever resolved in fact in one case they were made worse, but they insisted upon billing me hundreds of $ for the visit. The most recent problem is that I discovered that Amherst alarm was not receiving notifications from my system - the alarm goes off but they are not notified. The phone company says the line is ok. I do not know how long it was not communicating because Amherst Alarm never notified me - I set off the alarm to test it, and never received a call, that is how I discovered the problem. They said they would send out a tech to fix the problem. Great. I told them I wanted assurance that if they could not resolve the problem then they would not bill me. I had a number of conversations with one of there tech guys. He said he would ask the manager, Christine, and get back to me. I never heard from him again. So for the past 2 months, I have a system that does not communicate with Amherst Alarm, and yet I have paid for a full year of service. Two big fat thumbs down."

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts

Professional home automation services can include automation for nearly anything in your home, so the possibilities are endless. Some of the more common things homeowners use automation for include the following:

  • Heating and cooling for automatic comfort

  • Security cameras and emergency call systems

  • Door and window sensors to detect opening, closing, and break-ins

  • Solar system automation to maximize energy savings

  • Automatic door locks

  • Garage door openers

  • Speaker systems

  • Lighting

  • Appliances

  • Smoke and CO detectors

  • Blinds and other window coverings

  • Lawn irrigation systems

  • Water monitoring

Depending on your needs and wants, investing in a security door can be well worth the cost. Now that you know the pros and cons, you can decide if it’s a purchase that makes sense for your family. If you’re ready to have one installed in your home, look into security door installers in your area.

You'll likely need more than great home staging to sell your home. Now is a great time to get to work on the curb appeal of your home . Hire local exterior painters and landscapers to coat the exterior of your home and bring it new life with some sprucing up.

Changing the alarm in your wireless security system is a perfectly reasonable DIY task that most people can complete on their own. Simply open the system’s control panel, remove the existing battery, and replace it with a new one. If you’re using a wired system, this may require disconnecting and reconnecting both the positive and negative wires attached to the battery, and you may want to call in a professional to help. 

The best window alarm sensor depends on the type of window you’re concerned about since different types of sensors will work best in different scenarios. Many homes are equipped with contact sensors, which trigger an alarm when a window is opened, and each part of the sensor breaks contact with the other. But there are other options, too, like a glass break sensor or motion sensor, which both work well for windows that are in low-traffic areas.
