Alarm System Installation

A monitored alarm system is the difference between a break-in that ends in seconds and one that runs uninterrupted. SwiftLocksmith installs intrusion alarm systems for apartments, houses, brownstones, offices and storefronts across all five boroughs of NYC: door and window contacts, pet-immune motion sensors, glass-break detectors for street-facing windows, and control panels with battery and cellular backup so the system keeps working if the power or internet goes down.

NYC properties have NYC problems, and we design around them: fire escapes and accessible rear windows in walk-ups get prioritized sensor coverage, storefront roll-gates can be tied into the same system, and basement and roof-hatch entries, the routes intruders actually use, are covered, not just the front door. Every system we install can notify your phone directly, and optional 24/7 professional monitoring adds live dispatch of emergency responders when an alarm trips and you can't be reached.

Installation starts at $275 for a typical apartment configuration, with consultations available seven days a week and emergency service for systems that have stopped working. Because we're locksmiths as well as alarm installers, we'll also flag the problems an alarm can't fix. An alarm tells you someone got in; a properly installed deadbolt is what keeps them out, and we can fix both in one visit.
