securing your home

What to expect from Custom Alarm

We do not offer a one size fits all solution. Instead, we come out to your home and do an evaluation of your security needs. We will design a system based on the needs of the home and your primary areas of concern. Our installers will then install the system and train you on how to operate it. Our Central Monitoring Station will then monitor your security system right from our office in Rochester.

The same company who installed your system will also be monitoring and servicing it. What does that mean for you? It means you make one phone call for assistance, for additional training, to add or remove a user from your call list, or to add additional devices to your system. It means the company who monitors it knows the person who installed it – we all share information and work together to serve you better and provide your loved ones with peace of mind.

What can a complete system do for your home?

Protect you and your family with a complete security system from Custom Alarm. Whether you are building a new home or have an existing home with security needs, our experts can design a system that is right for you.

Did you know security systems do more than deter burglars? They can also detect smoke, heat, carbon monoxide, freezing temperatures and rising water levels. We can also monitor for medical emergencies.
