Verified audio vs. traditional alarm
Using innovative audio sensors and verified technology, Sonitrol provides 100% coverage of your commercial property. This means, we provide floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall protection. Here are a few reasons to consider a Verified audio alarm from Sonitrol vs. a traditional alarm:
- Traditional alarms often rely on motion detectors, which leave areas unprotected. Criminals may plan an intrusion in advance, allowing them to find an unconventional method of entry and simply tip toe around the motion detectors they scoped out. It has been known to happen. However, with Sonitrol, our audio sensors detect any disturbance in your business and can’t simply be tiptoed around. If the bad guys are trying to break-in or have gotten inside the building, they will make noise, and our monitoring team will hear them.
- In the event of an alarm, our Central Station monitoring team will listen-in via the audio sensors and determine if a break-in is occurring and dispatch police. Traditional alarms can be set off by something as simple as a mouse, meaning they will dispatch police to an alarm without knowing if a break-in is really happening, and often for no actual break-in. This leaves responding police frustrated at the false alarm and leaves the business with the city’s false alarm fees to pay.
- In the very unlikely event of a false alarm on one of our accounts, Sonitrol will pay the city’s false alarm fees for you.
- Our ability to verify alarms helps us have the lowest false alarm rates and the fastest police response. With our advanced audio technology and our highly skilled team of men and women at our local Central Station monitoring location, we can determine a true break-in and alarm, so police know they are headed to a real alarm.
- Sonitrol has the highest documented apprehension rate compared to traditional alarm companies. With over 182,700 apprehensions and counting, Sonitrol is a name you can trust to protect your business.
When looking for an alarm company, choose one that provides 100% coverage of your business and has a proven record of catching intruders. Call Sonitrol today for a free quote with a security design consultant at (800)444-1191.

Did a vandal break your window or was it a storm?
It’s after midnight, and you are fast asleep. Across town, vandals throw a rock through your business window and run away. A storm rips a tree limb down, and it crashes through the window. Or maybe criminals have shattered your window and are climbing through to grab inventory and dash away before any one is the wiser. When you arrive to open your business the next morning, the broken glass leaves a trail of clues, frustration, and helplessness. When you have a verified alarm with Sonitrol protecting your commercial property, none of these scenarios need bother you.
With our audio and video verification, we can keep eyes and ears on your property. If there is a disturbance or anyone breaks your window or tampers with your property while you are away, our team will instantly be alerted. If they determine a break-in is in progress or your business is under threat, they will send authorities and respond accordingly.
How does it work? Our alarm includes audio intrusion sensors that will pick up sounds of any kind. If the sensors go off, our twenty-four-hour monitoring team will listen in to determine if there is a threat. When you pair your audio alarm with cameras, our team can view live video to see what is happening. Our Central Station operators will dispatch law enforcement and even provide them with suspect descriptions and locations. Maybe it wasn’t a burglary attempt. If a storm knocked a tree through your window, our operators will certainly let you know. Sleep in peace knowing our skilled team is protecting your commercial property.

We look forward to answering your call!
We are all familiar with the dreaded automated computer voice that answers our phone calls to utility, business, and cell phone companies alike. It’s why we hate to call these businesses we depend on for services from electricity to cell and internet plans.
The robotic voice will give you options, such as:
“Thank you for calling. Current hold times are thirty minutes.”
“Visit our website to avoid holding.”
“Press one for English.”
“Tell me more about why you’re calling, so I can connect you with the right representative.”
“I’m sorry. I didn’t get that. Could you repeat why you are calling, so I can connect you?”
“Thank you for continuing to hold. Your call is important to us.”
And the list goes on…You end up listening to never-ending elevator music while you question why you give this company your business. It’s frustrating to say the least. When your call is finally answered, you’ll likely end up talking to someone who works remotely, states away or even countries away from the actual business you make your monthly payments to.
When you are shopping for a new security system, find one you can depend on. In this computer run day and age, it’s so much simpler to do business with a family-owned and operated company who employs local people to handle your account.

Facilitate staffing changes with Access Control
Facilitate staffing changes- new hires or employee termination- with Managed Access Control from Sonitrol. Using this technology, your team is provided with small key fobs that can connect to their key ring, belt loop, or company lanyard. It is a lightweight fob that the employee simply waves in front of the door access panel to enter the facility.
Access Control can be used for any door of a building, including elevators. If the team member is allowed access to that area, the secure door will open. You can make changes to decide who can go through each door, or who you want to limit or deny access to restricted areas. Office areas, inventory, storage rooms, you name it, can all be protected or restricted from access with this technology.
There is no need to worry about changing locks when an employee quits or is let go. Access Control allows you to reprogram the key fob so that the employee’s key fob will no longer grant them entry. If a team member leaves or you have a new employee, and you don’t want to make changes to the system yourself, that is no problem. Our Central Station monitoring team is available twenty-four-hours a day to update or change users in your system.
Another great feature of Managed Access Control is the detailed digital records kept of who entered through any door of your facility. These files are dated and time stamped so if an incident were to occur, or a dispute to arise about who entered the building and when, you can view that specific information.
Managed Access Control is a convenient tool to add to any security plan. Pair it with our audio intrusion alarms, verified video system, or fire monitoring system. Call us for a free security consultation at (800) 444-1191.

The Sonitrol that started it all…
Over fifty-five years ago, Sonitrol launched in Anderson, Indiana. A police officer, Al Cronk, who was tired of responding to false alarms, teamed up with his inventor friend, Robert Baxter, and an innovative alarm system was created.
Ahead of its time, the first Sonitrol location quickly caught the attention of local businesses and police and within a few years expanded to other cities. Sonitrol alarms are verified by our 24/7, local monitoring team and are trusted by police. Today, Sonitrol is the third largest commercial alarm company in North America.
As the years have gone by and our criminal apprehensions have increased, our company has continued to stay ahead of the time, offering a variety of security features to protect your facilities. We offer verified audio intrusion and video systems, managed access control, panic buttons, and fire systems, as well.
With a proven record and longevity in the security industry, our criminal apprehension rate is 182,700 and growing. We would be honored to protect your commercial business, medical facility, or school. Contact us for a free consultation with one of our security design consultants at (800) 444-1191.
