What Is Alarm Monitoring?

Watched Over. Every Second.

Alarm monitoring is a service provided by a specialized center, like APEX Smart Home, that watches for criminal activity such as burglary or robbery — or emergencies like smoke, fire, carbon monoxide, or water leaks.


Alarm monitoring center personnel receive specific information from your system and notify emergency responders. You can also be notified of the event and the actions being taken.


How fast is the monitoring response? The monitoring office receives your emergency within seconds. With the aid of computers, highly-trained operators notify emergency responders.

Highly trained operators in our UL-listed central station monitor every signal. Intrusion, panic, fire, and environmental alerts are processed instantly with verified dispatch procedures.

Burglar & Intrusion Detection

Real-time breach detection with door/window contacts, motion sensors, glass-break detectors, and perimeter protection. Alarm triggers route directly to our monitoring center within seconds.
