Four things to nail down before equipment goes on your wall — what to ask for, where DIY makes sense, the rule that applies in your state, and the questions every install touches.
AZ requires anyone installing burglar alarms or low-voltage security wiring to hold a state license — usually issued by the state Department of Consumer Affairs, Bureau of Security & Investigative Services, or equivalent. Verify the license number on the state board website before signing. Cities also typically require an alarm-system permit and may fine repeated false alarms (anywhere from $50 to $500 per incident after the first two or three).
Equipment + install for a basic 4-sensor alarm panel runs $400-800; cameras add $150-300 each; smart locks $200-400. Monitoring is usually $30-50/month with a 24- or 36-month contract. DIY kits like SimpliSafe start around $250 with optional $15-30/month monitoring.
Depends on the installer. Pro installers often lease equipment as part of the monitoring contract — if you cancel, the gear stops working with their app. Buying outright costs more upfront but lets you switch monitoring providers later. Always ask before signing.
A UL-listed central station calls within 30-60 seconds of a trip to verify, then dispatches police or fire if needed. Verification helps cut false-alarm fines. Average dispatch time is 90-120 seconds. Some systems use audio/video verification before any call to police.
Fire alarms are regulated under separate state and city codes — usually require a different license and inspection trail. Some larger installers do both; many residential security shops don't. If you need an integrated fire + security panel for a small business, ask specifically.
A properly installed alarm panel has a battery backup (good for 24+ hours) and a cell radio for monitoring (so it doesn't depend on home internet). Cameras and smart locks usually need power and internet. Confirm both — battery + cellular — before signing.
Many cities require an alarm-system permit before the monitoring company can dispatch on your behalf. Costs are usually $25-100/year, and false-alarm fines kick in after 2-3 trips. The installer typically files the permit on your behalf as part of activation.
