Starts at $45/m with security equipment included List of options: Wireless Security: Perimeter protection Motion Glass Break sensor CO detection Smoke/Fire detection Water sensor Medical Pendant Doorbell Camera 4k Outdoor Camera Indoor Camera 24/7 30 day Smart Hard Drive + Cloud Storage Smart Home: Smart Doorlock Nest Thermostat Element Thermostat Garage Controller Wifi Mesh Systems Lighting/Appliance control What sets us apart is the level of service we will provide, the price point, the lifetime warranty on all equipment and the cellular back up meaning most parts of the system will operate without Wi-Fi. (including video clips) Thank you for taking the time to read this, please contact me if you have any questions or if I can help you in anyway.

"Vivint is the worst company I have ever done business with. Having Vivint is a condition on my lease and, if it wasn't, I would quit in a minute. The company is so cheap about replacing malfunctioning equipment. My front door lock doesn't work and I have been working on getting a replacement for over a month. Still no luck. An appointment is not an appointment but I rough guideline to when someone may or may not show up. There are a lot of alarm companies and I could never recommend Vivint."

"I do not understand how this company's Angie's list has any good reviews. They come door to door selling their services and equipment under Brinks while operating as Onit. The salesman were nice but everything that succeeded this was less than stellar. It is nearly impossible to reach their customer service and "Lou" the salesman who had helped me ended up ignoring my calls and text messages after a month long exchange that had never resolved. He had promised that Onit will send a rebate buying out the contract for the previous security company that my family had been using. I would have never switched over to Onit had I known that this was never going to be followed up with. On top of the equipment cost I had to pay 19.99 for the monitoring service with Onit and 39.99 for my previous service for the next year that I can no longer use since they had uninstalled the previous hardware. I had paid for my equipment within 6 months of the 2 year contract to avoid any interest fees but had nearly immediately canceled my monitoring service afterwards as I don't want to support a company with such scummy business practices and poor customer service. I've only come to find out today that they have lost ALL records of my cancellation the previous year and have sent me an invoice for the "last 12 months of service" that I had received. My SECOND cancellation was easy and Maribel was able to help me the same day but I am still extremely upset with having to deal with this company again after I thought they were out of family's problems. Do yourself a favor and get a Ring alarm and avoid this company like the plague."

FAQs for home security system service projects in San Antonio, TX

The average cost of a home security system is about $700, ranging from $280 to $1,150. Costs to consider include equipment, surveillance fees, and other additional features. Cost factors that determine your system’s price include the type of security system, materials, labor, activation fees, monthly fees, and permits. Additional features and upgrades may include:

  • Video surveillance monitoring: $40–$65 per month

  • Smart home locks: $150

  • Smart home lighting: $15–$90

  • Smart smoke, fire, and carbon monoxide alarms: $35–$100

  • Smart thermostat: $130–$500

Yes, a home security system can be worth it for your peace of mind alone, but it can also save you up to 20% on your home insurance. The insurance savings will help defray the initial setup costs and subscription costs over time. Locations with higher crime rates also make home security systems a valuable investment, but it ultimately depends on your personal preferences and asset values.

With the popularity of DIY security cameras and video surveillance systems, it’s important to understand the benefits and potential drawbacks to decide if it’s the right choice for you. Advantages and disadvantages include:

Pros

  • Video footage readily available

  • Reduced home insurance

  • Save on labor costs by installing security cameras yourself

  • Wireless systems are easy to move and set up

  • Monitor from your smartphone

  • Avoid false alarms

Cons

  • Features may be vulnerable to hackers

  • No direct link to authorities

  • Risk of installing the system improperly, reducing its effectiveness

Whether a security system or security cameras is a better choice for you depends on your needs and preferred comfort level. A security system can cost more depending on the features you choose, but it’s a more proactive and protective approach to home security by alerting you and authorities of any emergencies. Using a security camera system is a more reactive approach because while you can monitor the camera footage, it does not alert the proper authorities for you.

Understanding the pros and cons of installing a home security system is the first step to deciding which one is right for you. A few of the advantages and disadvantages include:

Pros

  • Added security for your household

  • Reduced home insurance premiums

  • Many smart home integrations available

  • Security companies can monitor your home 

Cons

  • Expensive setup costs 

  • Subscription costs can add up quickly

  • Features may be vulnerable to hackers

  • Weak signal reduces the security of a wireless system
