An Alarm That Works Because It Was Built for Your Property

A generic off-the-shelf alarm leaves gaps. A DSS-installed system starts with a walk-through of your property: mapping zones, identifying entry risks, and placing every sensor where it will actually catch an intrusion.

Our technicians design, install, and test on the same day. Before we leave, you know how the system works, where every zone is, and how to reach us if anything changes.

Every installation includes:
Zone map User guide Panel walkthrough Test certificate 24/7 monitoring hookup GPRS 4G module

Common Questions

How long does installation take?

A standard residential system takes 4–6 hours. Commercial installations vary by scope. We always provide a time estimate before starting.

Do you work on weekends?

Yes. We offer weekend appointments for residential installations. Commercial after-hours work is available upon request.

Will the alarm work if my internet goes down?

Yes. All DSS alarm systems include GPRS 4G communication via Permaconn, so your alarm communicates independently of your home internet or phone line.

Can I add zones later?

Yes. Our panels are selected for expandability. Adding zones, sensors, or new areas is straightforward and does not require replacing the panel.
