Sonitrol’s managed Access Control system allows businesses to track and limit entry to buildings and sensitive areas of facilities, protecting valuable merchandise and making the work environment safer for employees. If an employee is reassigned or leaves, the access card is easily deactivated or updated for a new employee. Access control reduces the threat of not only external, but internal theft, as well.

Great job, Muncie Police Department!
On behalf of TEAM SONITROL, we want to say thank you to Muncie Police Department for a recent apprehension. When our Central Station operator, DJ, received a panic alarm at a convenience store we monitor, he heard the stress in a woman’s voice from the audio feed and immediately dispatched law enforcement. A special shout out goes to Officer Vogel and Officer Thornton for apprehending the suspect who was allegedly exposing himself and chasing after a woman in the shop. Misty took donuts from Dunkin’ Donuts and certificates of appreciation to say thanks. Great job, DJ and Muncie Police Department!

Flashback Founder Files, part two:
Since the early days of Sonitrol, our verified security has stood out for its superiority in the market. Unlike a conventional system, our audio technology enables the monitoring team to verify a break-in and let police know this isn’t a false alarm. This technology leads to more criminal apprehensions. We love this flashback from our founder’s interviews:
A number of early apprehensions helped him win the police over. After that drugstore apprehension, Standring says, “We sold a low-end grocery chain. The guy already had an alarm system and our competition told him, ‘This’ll never work.’ He said, ‘Well, you’ve never caught anybody, so let me give this a try.’ The first week, we caught two in one store, one in another, and three in another. The police then started to take notice. They started asking questions and actually referred us to several customers.”
Leader in Security!
At this time last year, Sonitrol of Evansville and Muncie won Dealer of the Year at Sonitrol National Dealers Convention in Las Vegas. We look forward to the next convention, and we want to thank everyone at TEAM SONITROL for your dedication to providing dependable, verified alarms to our community.

Highest apprehension rate due to verified alarms
While conventional security systems are motion-based, Sonitrol’s verified audio intrusion detection systems are sound-based. When an alarm is triggered, our Central Station monitoring operators can listen in to verify whether a break-in is in progress or if a false alarm has occurred. If it is a break-in, we immediately dispatch police and provide real-time information to the responding officers. Because of this ability to verify alarms, Sonitrol has the highest apprehension rate and the lowest false alarm rate in the industry. Speak with one of our professional security design consultants to hear more about our services at (800)444-1191.
Flashback Founder Files

Over fifty years later, we continue to protect commercial and residential properties with innovative technology and a team of professionals who are always on the job twenty-four hours a day. Call us for a free consultation at (800)444-1191. We love this excerpt from an archived interview with Dr. Standring:
When Standring opened Sonitrol of Evansville, he staffed it with part-time sales people and part-time installers. Standring himself worked weekdays as a dentist and evenings and weekends at his Sonitrol franchise. “We had very little overhead,” says Standring of the early days, “and I typed the invoices out on a typewriter at my house. I had a direct line in my office and when people would call me, they thought I was Sonitrol’s office.” Said Standring, “One of our first few customers was a personal friend who had a drugstore. We collared a guy coming through the roof the second night it was installed.”
